Super Team


While kart-racing, tennis, and golf had all served the Mario series well, Nintendo still wished to try out other sports with Mario’s name on them. First they tried baseball, with Mario Superstar Baseball, and then immediately followed up with football in Super Mario Strikers. To give the players a threat to fight against in the game’s story, a race of alien robots were invented to act as their opponents.

These are the Super Team. They would sadly not appear again, only with one cameo in the game’s sequel, but they are key options to represent Mario’s short foray into football as a whole.

As fighters, they will be heavy but fast, with electricity constantly being discharged from them that will cause area of effect damage to their opponents. Their movesets will pull from both Super Mario Strikers and Mario Strikers Charged, both the basic mechanics of the game and the fantastical elements added to heighten the experience.

Likelihood rating: Probably not
