What Parents Need to Know
About Mario Strikers Charged
Parents need to know that this Mario sports game is fast-paced, silly, strange, and cool; but that it bears very little resemblance to real soccer. This is extreme soccer of the red-card variety, making unsportsmanlike mischief part of the fun -- and part of the concern for parents. Each character has a special Team Captain Power; Wario's is the ability to fart green smoke, making everyone sick. This game offers an online component, which Common Sense Media does not recommend for anyone under the age of 12.

good wii game
i got this game the day it came out. i was pretty stoked and when i popped it in i had a reason to be! this game plays great, and can be played for hours on end. i have online and it plays well but[i am a hardcore gamer who plays fair i.e. no skillshots or mega srikes]n00bs are constantly online using megasrikes to rack up points which can get frustrating if you just want to play a game of skill. overall it was a great game and you will enjoy it.[who knows maybe ill vs you online sometime]
Lives in MississippiI rate this title iffy for age 2 and give itA fun but iffy game
I really thought the game was fun but Daisy was iffy. It was a good game overall, but it got repetetive. I'll play it again though!

Great Game! You'll never stop playing it!
Mario Strikers Charged is, by far, better than the first game. Although i think the ESRB made a mistake. The game has more violence in it than crude humor. Plus the online play is fine because the only thing passed back and forth is your Mii and your Mii name.
Lives in TexasI rate this title on for age 2 and give itBetter than #1 for sure!
Mario Strikers Charged is a lot better than the first game. There's still some violent team plays, but it got an E10+, so what do you expect? It's better, and certainly so.
