Wall Ball
Wall Ball is a minigame found in Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers. The minigame is hosted in Princess Peach's stadium (Peach Garden in Mario Superstar Baseball or Peach Ice Garden in Mario Super Sluggers). It is a four-player minigame (although the other three can be CPU players). The aim of the minigame is to score the most points out of all the players. In Mario Superstar Baseball, each player takes a turn at throwing a very strong ball into a row of Brick Walls. In Mario Super Sluggers, it is the same, but players do not take turns. This is done by using a bar on the side, which tells the player how strong or weak the throw will be, and only the last wall they hit determines how (or if) their points change. Players with the most points in the end win. This minigame is played in Challenge Mode in Mario Superstar Baseball as well, where the player has to verse three Toads.
There are three types of walls in Mario Superstar Baseball:
- Brick Wall – The player earns five points for each wall they hit.
- ♪ Wall – The player earns 100 points.
- Bowser Wall – The player loses half of their points, which are divided amongst the other players.
In Mario Super Sluggers, the player receives more points the further away the wall is, and the four types of walls are:
- Blue Wall – The player gets a small bonus.
- Green Wall – Same as the Blue Wall; however, if four of them line up, the first player to break one receives a much larger bonus.
- Princess Peach Heart Wall – This provides the biggest bonus out of all the walls, except for the lined-up Green Walls.
- Bowser Wall – The player loses 50 points.
