Princess Daisy’s Rabona-Infused Arrival Into Mario Strikers: Battle League Is Better Late Than Never
I wasn’t particularly sold on Mario Strikers: Battle League at launch. I was the ideal candidate in many ways. Strikers is in the mix for my favourite GameCube game, I love arcade sports titles, and football is my favourite sport. The camp cheesiness of it all only sweetened the deal, but the final game was just too empty. I gave it three out of five stars, putting me on the lower end of review scores, and it still feels a little high. The game was perfectly competent, but there just wasn’t anything to it. No story mode, no real progression, online was impossible during the review period, and there just felt like no real point to any of it. Since turning in my review, I’ve picked the game up twice more for a few online games, but instantly put it back down. Now Princess Daisy is in the game, I’m diving right back in.
