Just got this today. Fantastic. Very impressed so far.
God it's been yeeeeeeeeeaers since I last played a basketball game. Think it was some Master System game with werewolves in it. So I was following this ever since I saw some video for it. Been so stoked for getting it. Normally I avoid sports games like a bad cold, but this one is so vibrant and outrageous. Not to mention the oh so simple controls.
First off I was struck by the solidness of the enviroments as well as the traditional Mario themed worlds and music. Everything is so new while being so familiar. Which for me is inviting.
You start with a basic tutorial which explains dunks, shots, dribbles and steals. From here you can jump straight to the first cup. Mushroom cup. Initially I was overwhelmed. The control pad moves your player while the stylus performs actions. The L button switches between players. After the 1st match everything settles wonderful though. The games are so smooth and fluid. Their a joy to play as they are to watch.
Maybe more impressions later, just finished the 1st cup and want to see what Square have to offer.
Get this game though.
