Mario sports titles always ooze multiplayer joy... until now. This title has zero online support, and only allows for a pair of lame mini-games - picture Mario Kart 's battle mode, without the kart - via download play. Gathering a few cart-owning ballers will help you live out some hoop dreams wirelessly, but why the game only supports four players is a mystery. Three players per team times two teams equals six.
