Title: Mario Basketball (not what you think)
Post by: MEGAß¥TE on December 13, 2004, 09:37:11 PM: Usually, I let Luigison post Nintendo/Mario news here first, but this one is just too good to pass up.

Which is exactly why it was deleted. Dupe post.

Post by: Luigison on December 14, 2004, 08:10:47 PM: Thanks. I must have missed your thread and didn't notice the date/time on it before I made my previous post. You were right to delete it. I must be getting slow(er) in my old age. (Reading my user name in your first post is funny now.)

Anyway, I think that having Nintendo characters in 3rd party games is a great idea.

Oh no. I missed the mailbag too.

Remember Link's playable appearance in the GameCube version of Soul Calibur II?

Post by: Hope(N Forever) on December 22, 2004, 04:33:40 AM: Here's a extract from IGNCube's Mailbag...

It has some more details on the Super Mario part of this game...

Do you have any more details on NBA Street Vol. 3 with Mario characters yet?

Matt responds: A few. There have been a couple of rumors going around that as far as I've heard are false. The biggest and dumbest is that NBA Street Vol. 3 for GameCube features an additional disc with a completely original Mario All-Stars Basketball game on it. That's simply not true. Rather, the Nintendo All-Stars characters and one original court are included in the GCN build of NBA Street. You can play as Mario, Luigi and Peach (no others) and there's a Mushroom Kingdom-style basketball court with appropriate sound effects. For instance, when your Gamebreaker Meter fills up, you hear the Super Mushroom sound effect. The second rumor I've heard is that the Nintendo characters cannot interact with any real pros, and this is also false. You actually square off against real NBA athletes using Nintendo's three mascots and the experience is wholly surreal because Mario, Luigi and Peach stand about half as tall as some of these basketball giants.

Post by: Nameneko on February 04, 2005, 11:42:17 PM: Hm, they (Mario and Luigi in particular) seem blowwn out of proportion... Then there's the lighting. Mario, Luigi, and Peach just don't have that same... atmosphere (?) as the rest of the human-like players. Interesting pics, though. Could a "Mario Basketball GC" be far off? I shudder to think.
