The alluring draw of a metal ball, a lizard goalie, and well, Mario, just couldn't be resisted. Yes, we went out and bought Mario Strikers Charged and have been thoroughly enjoying it.

We'll be playing much of today, practicing and learning the ins and outs in an effort to come up with a good walkthrough/faq for the game.

If you're interested in playing against us in some wi-fi action, then post on our message boards and we'll get it going.
