Star Ship (court)

Star Ship is the final court of any tourney in Star Cup in Mario Sports Mix. After players win the semi-final match, they meet with their opposition, disguised as Ninja. Ninja soon steals the Star Cup trophy and heads for the Star Ship. The players' characters then chase Ninja into the Star Ship, where they participate in a final battle before receiving the Star Cup trophy.

This court, in Tournament mode, is always played against Ninja and White Mage in 2-on-2 mode. Black Mage joins their team too whenever the court is played in 3-on-3 mode. The opponents do not change at all if the player is using any of those three characters; for instance, if the player is using White Mage, White Mage will still appear as a CPU player, but in a different outfit.

The Star Ship can be played in all sports. It has one special mechanic; colored crystals may occasionally rain down on the court, each worth one Coin. However, this gimmick is absent in Normal Tournament mode, making the Star Ship similar to Mario Stadium. The crystals will appear in Tournament mode if the player clears the Star Road before reaching the finals.

The Star Ship is accessible only once after players beat Ninja and White Mage (and Black Mage) in one corresponding sport.
