Awesome game
This game is simply awesome. You can combine all sorts of characters to be on a team, and with extensive touch screen usage, you can use all sorts of sweet moves. A special bonus is that you get to use a few Final Fantasy characters in the mix, which give the game a special twist. This game definately deserves 5 stars!

Can Be Fun, But Has Many Flaws
First off, if you want this game for the basketball part, then don't buy it. However, if you want Mario, then you might consider buying it.

The Bad: Your teammates in this game are completely useless. They never go for the ball and they simply stand there waiting for the ball. it feels more like Mario Hoops 1 on 3. Lame. Also, after playing this for a while it gets extremely boring. Many times I'll be in the middle of a game and turn it off because I don't feel like finishing it. Another bad thing is the courts. They have nothing that relates to Mario (except Bowser castle). The items that you find in the game are very unreliable, and the AI can get frusturating in the harder difficulty. This game is also WAY overpriced for something that only lasts for a short time. This game also stands no chance against other Mario sports games, such as Mariokart and mario Superstar Baseball.

The Good: The graphics are nice, and there are a lot of courts, players, and unlockables. The game is also very fun at the beginning. The sound was great too and I enjoyed the grunts and shouts from my favorite mario characters. The special shots are awesome! The stylus controls work pretty well for the most part. That's about it.

Real basketball fans will be frusturated with this game, while Mario fans won't be amazed by it. Overall, this game is average. Rent or try this game out somehow to see if it's right for you. Thanks for reading.

Matt's Mario Hoops Review
I am 7 years old and I love this video game. It is challenging in all sorts of ways. I like to do special shots as Yoshi. I would recommend this video game to any kids who like basketball and Mario games. There are different kinds of courts when you get better at the game. There are different players when you get to a different tournaments. Enjoy the game!

Mother of twins
I purchased this game for my son and he really loves it. He and his sister can connect with their DS systems and play one another. It was a great compliment to her Princess Peach game as well. Both have provided hours of entertainment.
