Nice, now I can finally play this.
I thought this would be pretty bad, but I've heard nothing but good things about it.

it worked with the japan version when i transfered my save to pal but i used my wi-fi on the japan severs so yeah... but with my europe save i did not go on wi-fi so hopefully that matters.
Oddly, usenet seems void. All that can be found are web based file share links. Very odd indeed... So much for trying before buying. I've only heard good things though... Anyone report otherwise?Bowser-jr said:

I got the PAL version a few days ago and played it with some buddies and it's pretty mediocre.
Gameplay for most of the games consists of just running around and pressing 2 a lot. It's basically just a mini game compilation but only with 4 really long mini games. It doesn't have any of the appeal the past Mario titles had, really.
It was still decent fun to shout at each other but not worth anything more than throwaway value.

Mario car driver simulator,Mario math master,Mario and the 134 stars of doom,mario and Link at the london olympics 2012,mario forever will not die profit for nintendo4life....2,Come on nintendo come up with new characters you're starting to loose fans.
Ahh, so what I understand is that if you have Wii Sports, Resort, Mario Kart etc... Mario Sports Mix isn't worth it really. Well that's a bummer. Someone needs to light a fire under Nintendo's development team. Seem like they just copy & pasted the Mario franchise in without making it unique...ManFranceGermany said:

This game was developed by Square Enix, not Nintendo. Actually, other than Mario Kart, I don't think Nintendo's developed any other Mario sports title:
Mario Golf Series- Camelot
Mario 3-on-3 / Sports Mix - Square Enix
Mario Tennis Series- Camelot
Mario Baseball Series - Namco/Namco Bandai
Mario Strikers Series - Next Level Games
Mario Party Series - Hudson Soft
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Series - SEGA/SEGA Sports
Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix - Konami
So yeah...
The game is decent amounts of fun with 4 people. I'm a bit saddened by the fact that none of the included games are as thawed out as they could be - either they should've made this game a blow out and added a bunch more sports, or they should've focused on one, like the other developers. It's fun, bu the potential for something greater is so evident. It looks great, and it sounds nice as well, but I would've much rather preferred a sequel to 3-on-3 done right than what Square gave us here.
This is pure shovelware. Each sport is fun for about 5 minutes. The AI is not challenging; e.g. I had a score of 30-2 in hockey on the hardest difficulty before giving up in sheer boredom. The games are not implemented with any of the creativity or flare that one expects from games with the Mario Branding. There's virtually no progression or anything to unlock, so there's not much incentive for replay.
Unless you're under age 8 and have a high threshold for repetitive and pointless gameplay, this ranks in the 2 out of 5 stars range.

@AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.+2 -

Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other. -

I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.

I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.+1 -

I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet

Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.

Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol

Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150
