==[…]and much more.==
No, the release date for this game is 2/7/2011, or February 7, 2011. Looks like the game magazines lied on this game! - Reddragon19k
Does anyone have proof for the line in the intro that claims this game will have more than the four sports that have been shown? I was under the impression that the sports in this game were limited to just those four. {{User:Twentytwofiftyseven/sig}} 10:31, 18 July 2010 (UTC)


Hopefully. Nintendo wouldn't limit gameplay to 4 sports. *googles it.* {{User|Damariogamr}}

== Europeon Release date ==
 
I'm confused. I thought that the Mario Sports Mix release date for Europe was January 28, 2011 according to this link: http://gamefocus.ca/?nav=new&nid=11923
 
But now when I checked the article for Mario Sports Mix again on this wiki, the release date is February 4, 2011. Does anybody know if Jan. 28th is the real date or Feb. 4th?

Okay. I must have gotten the wrong date then. Thanks!

hmm  {{User:Birdo beauties/sig}} i don't think so. :/
== USA Release Date ==


==Last Character==
I went to my local GameStop and checked the release date book and discovered that the release of th USA version of this game is January 4, 2011.
We have 18 confirmed playable characters but there's a hidden character. Who could be? {{User:Birdo beauties/sig}}


:We have to wait like everyone else. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
[[User:KoopaWiki1989]]
:It's probably a placeholder. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:What do ya mean, Fawfulfury65? It's the truth! [[KoopaWiki1989]]
::I don't trust stores for offering release dates. I rather rely on official websites or other places. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
:::My point exactly; it's best to wait for news from Nintendo of America themselves regarding when Mario Sports Mix's release date in NA will be. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! [[User:MeritC|User Page]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 02:53, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
::::On second thought, you're right. I went to the GameStop site it says it'll come out February 1, 2011. Here's the proof: [[http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=78162]] [[KoopaWiki1989]]
:::::Of course! The book said January 4, but the actual release date is February 7! Looks like the NOA found the release date after all. [[User:Reddragon19k]]
::::::Know what, Reddragon19k, you're right. [[KoopaWiki1989]]


Yeah maybe Birdo is the last hidden character. {{User:Birdo beauties/sig}}  I hope so---
== Final Boss: Behemoth ==
:I suggest you discuss this [http://forum.mariowiki.com/index.php?topic=8202.620;topicseen here]. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}


There's no need to discuss it since it was just confirmed on the Japanese website. And no, it's not Birdo as she was clearly shown as an audience character. [[User:Tomboytastic|Tomboytastic]] 01:21, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
The final fantasy character Behemoth is confirmed to be the final boss. Why isn't it mentioned anywhere in the article. Proof is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEJmzi-daXQ Someone should add it already! [[User:MarioMaster720]]
:The video says it is the only boss. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}


== Monty Mole ==
I found the full battle on this site: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQmilcaBcT8]] [[KoopaWiki1989]]
 
==Edit from Last Week==
 
Waluigi Pinball and Koopa Troopa Beach need their own articles. I tried to do it last week but I couldn't do it easily. Also some courts should have another name outside Japan like Bowser Jr.s Bvld.
 
Sincerely [[User:ED120]]
 
== Players ==
 
I got MSM game, but there's no characters like White Mage, Moogle, etc. Here's screenshot: [http://i.imgur.com/0jlyW.png]. Do I have to unlock them somehow? {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:I've never played it, but I can already say this: yes. They were confirmed to appear in it. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
::To unlock characters it needs to win Story Mode (any), 1 character per win. [http://i.imgur.com/Wucck.png Wuuck.png] (so random) {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
 
== Courts that still need articles ==
 
The following courts still need an article:
*[[Koopa Troopa Beach (court)]]
*[[DK Dock]]
*[[Bowser Jr. Blvd.]]
*[[Table Western]]
*[[Waluigi Pinball (court)]]
*[[Starship]]
*[[Ghost Ship]]
 
I created a Table Western article that got deleted. One court may have a different name outside Japan. Someone should create them.
 
Sincerely [[Sonicewan]]
==Controls vs article==

==Playable characters order==
Which order should we use? {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:See the article and they have an order. {{user:DKC2 King Liam/sig}}

==Unlocks==
==Split?==
Should we split Basketball/Voleyball/Dodgeball/Hockey/Sports Mix from here? {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:Nah, they are separate game modes; they can be incorporated into this article easily. However, the current information we have is just the bare bones of the mode; we need more description. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
 
== Behemoth Battle Controls ==
 
I'm in a bit of a pickle with the controls for the Behemoth Battle.  While I have the Wii Remote (horizontal) controls down, I don't exactly know the controls for when you're using the Wii Remote with the Nunchuk attachment; I've only played the game with the Wii Remote (horizontal) control scheme.  If anyone has fought Behemoth with the Wii Remote + Nunchuk control scheme, please tell me what you know. {{User:M&amp;SG/sig}} 07:50, 8 March 2011 (EST)
:Well, how you move around is the same for dodgeball, you dodge in the same manner by shaking the Wii Remote. You toss the ball by pressing A and you use motion controls for volleyball to hit the ball. You can also shake the Wii Remote to use items. Slam dunking is also shaking the Wii Mote upwards. Press and hold the Z button to use the sword thing. I think it's basically it. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
 
==What this article lacks==
*<s>Story (''Warning: spoilers!'' Toads found 4 crystals and ended up giving it to winners of 4 sports. After winning them the crystals merged and suddenly worm hole appeared, in it heroes battling Behemoth).</s> Thanks, [[User:BabyLuigiOnFire|BabyLuigiOnFire]] and [[User:Arend|Arend]]!

:Trivia sections are actually not recommended unless you have a useful piece of information that doesn't fit anywhere in the article. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:I may be a bit crazy, but the game itself don't have a story... "technically"; so why are folks saying that the background about the Tournament mode needs to be added? The important factors that need to be mentioned (which I believe have already been done so) is the Tournament Mode process itself, which also includes working toward the final battle moments with Bethemoth. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! [[User:MeritC|User Page]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 14:56, 14 March 2011 (EDT)
::Well, I added it anyway for completedness. I think it implements finely in the Tournament mode of the article. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
Now since Arend made the story section, it now lacks images. I'll upload one soon. {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:Done. {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
Seems that everything is done. The nly thing is Sports Mix section, and we can support that FA "proposal". {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
 
We're almost done. But there are still some things missing. Here are some other points this article lacks. Most of the tings are optional though.
*Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection
*<s>Longer Sports Mix section
*How many games need to be played to unlock a court
**Right now, the table says ''Play a certain number of matches'' with every court
**The way how to unlock the court in Tournament mode is complete!</s>
*<s>Record Book Page 2 needs screenshots from Basketball, Volleyball and Hockey</s>
{{User:Arend/sig}}
:Regarding Sports Mix mode, that's basically all there is to it. I don't think anything else can be added to it. Yeah, all you're doing is playing a random sport in a harder tournament mode. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
 
===Screenshots===
This page has beautiful HQ screenshot. This is obviously a good thing, but I did notice something.
Right now there are 19 screenshots on this page.
*There is '''1''' screenshot with '''Hockey''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are '''4''' screenshots with '''Volleyball''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are '''4''' screenshots with '''Basketball''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are '''8''' screenshots with '''Dodgeball''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are also '''2''' screenshots that can depict any sport
As you can see, around 50% of the screenshots use Dodgeball, so it's quite unbalanced.
Fortunately, most of the screenshots show menus, but it would be nice if at least the Record Book Page 2 section can get screenshots for every sport, instead for only Dodgeball.

==Trivia==
 
Uhh Toad is playable in the Mario baseball series. Why does it say this is his first time since Mario Tennis 64 he was playable?
 
{{User|Tails777}}
 
Nobody knows if the Toad in Mario Baseball is [[Toad]] or a random Toad. The Toad in Mario Baseball has a red fest while [[Toad]] has a blue fest. {{User:Arend/sig}}
 
Oh. O.K. then. {{User|Tails777}}

== Slime Power! ==
I found a glitch but I'm not sure whether to make a glitches page because it would be too small. What should I do?

A Slime in Mario Sports Mix? How can he Play? He Is a good character and I can't wait to play as him, but really? I'm glad he is a character, but there is only one Problem; He has no arms.
== Special Moves? (Separate pages?) ==
Has there been any plans to making separate pages for each character's special moves? Mario Hoops 3-on-3 has the character's special moves with separate pages, so shouldn't the Mario Sports Mix special moves have their own pages? Some of the shots already have names thanks to the ones from Hoops, so the information from MSM can be added to those (eg. Jr's Graffiti shot). I feel that these moves definitely deserve their own pages, as they were all unique and notable.


P.S. Sorry BirdoBeauties, but there is a new player in town from the Dragon quest series and his name is Slime!
Also, has anyone been able to upload any pictures of the special shots? I have been looking around for images of them both inside and outside of the Wiki, but I have yet to find any that are of good quality...{{User:Propeller Toad/Sig}} 12:31, 19 October 2011 (EDT)
{{unsigned|MarioMaster2011}}


:Firstly, you can discuss about this in the forums. Secondly, Goomba in Baseball. Enough said. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
: The problem is this -- in the case of Mario Sports Mix, we don't have the actual names of the character's special abilities themselves. We have the descriptions of what they do based on each respective character, of course (on this article), so I can't see how they would correspond with any existing articles that would cover them separately. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! [[User:MeritC|User Page]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 15:27, 19 October 2011 (EDT)


== Europeon Release date ==
The lack of official names would indeed be the biggest problem here. We can't make up the names or assume that they're related to other special shots from Mario Hoops as well.


I'm confused. I thought that the Mario Sports Mix release date for Europe was January 28, 2011 according to this link: http://gamefocus.ca/?nav=new&nid=11923
However, I still feel that these moves deserve an article. So perhaps this idea can this work?: Creating a separate page named as "Special Moves (Mario Sports Mix)". This page can cover the moves, and as well provide the images/screenshots of these images. The names of the moves would be labelled as: "Mario's Special Shot" or "Luigi's Special Shot" and etc. I think this would work; however, I am not sure if this idea would be accepted? Would this be able to work (to represent the moves better)? {{User:Propeller Toad/Sig}} 15:59, 19 October 2011 (EDT)


But now when I checked the article for Mario Sports Mix again on this wiki, the release date is February 4, 2011. Does anybody know if Jan. 28th is the real date or Feb. 4th?
==Final Fantasy source==
Hey, I clicked on the final fantasy hyperlink in the first section of the article and it redirected me to the Final Fantasy Wiki on Fandom. Wouldn't it be better to redirect to the Wikipedia page instead of going to Fandom?
