'''''Mario Super Sluggers''''' is the [[Wii]] installment follow-up to the 2005 [[Nintendo GameCube]] game ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and is the second game in the ''[[Mario Baseball (series)|Mario Baseball]]'' series. This game borrows many elements from the previous game, but it also includes new elements as well, including a variety of gameplay controls, such as taking advantage of the motion sensor controls that the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] provides. The game also has a more in-depth and more narrative-driven Challenge Mode, where, rather than only facing off against a Team Captain and a team of opponents, players interact with more characters, including a variety of various sub-characters, and play various small challenges to recruit them for their team. Up to four players can play this title, and a new feature is that players can choose which of the two team sides to be on. | '''''Mario Super Sluggers''''' is the [[Wii]] installment follow-up to the 2005 [[Nintendo GameCube]] game ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and is the second game in the ''[[Mario Baseball (series)|Mario Baseball]]'' series.

==Chemistry== | |||
{{main|Chemistry}} | |||
Like ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'', the characters will have good and bad relations with any other character. However, the characters can make special abilities with another character when they show good [[Chemistry]]. The player can receive items with chemistry while batting. If the player is a batter and the next batter shares chemistry with the player, this will result in getting an item that can be used for messing up the outfielder's progress. Players that share good chemistry can also perform buddy jumps and buddy throws. Buddy jumps are used to take away a home run or a deep fly ball. Buddy throws are used to throw the ball faster and more accurate to its destination. Bad chemistry, however, results in slower throws, and sometimes throwing off track. | |||
==Items== | |||
===Error Items=== | |||
There are a total of seven items that are available during the course of ''Mario Super Sluggers'' gameplay. If the on-deck batter has Chemistry with the batter at the plate, a randomly-selected item can be used to inhibit fielders by aiming the Wii Remote immediately after hitting the ball. In [[Toy Field]], items work the same way but are chosen by a roulette wheel. These are as follows: | |||

| | |When the POW-Ball hits the ground, any players (including the user's team) within a large radius are stunned by an earthquake for about four seconds. Characters who levitate or fly are not affected by the quake. This can also be avoided by timing a jump. If the POW-Ball directly hits an individual fielder, they are knocked away and the quake effect does not occur. | ||

After Daisy countered Mario's pitched ball, the scenery immediately changes as the ball is chased after by Toad in the [[Peach Ice Garden]] until he runs into a large [[Freezie]] and turns frozen solid upon collision. He is later freed by a [[Toad (species)|Blue Toad]] who accidentally crashes into the Freezie (with Toad revealing that he made the catch after being defrosted). The ball then rolls onto [[Wario City]], where [[Wario]] chases after it to find it shoot into the air from a manhole water spout. The ball lands on Wario's head, causing him to fall backwards, and causing the ball to fly into [[Yoshi Park]]. Yoshi jumps over a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]] to catch the ball, realizing he is going to fall, he flutters around, but falls in with the ball; all while [[Birdo]] watches and does nothing.
