General Commentary and Game Overview
Mario Basketball 2.0 is an astoundingly amazing sports game with incredible programming put into it. I am indeed impressed. OneEyedParrot does pull off some good minigames. With a slam dunk ability, spin jump, and cleverly thought up yoshi egg ball, this game has it all when it comes to basketball. If he would've ever made a third one, I'd suggest he put different kinds of basketball games in it like horse, standard, etc.

The levels are great, the music is great, and the gameplay is addicting.
 
Pros *Superb programming.

*Great moves that gives this game real basketball feeling.

*Clever ideas, Yoshi's Island coin buckets for baskets, Yoshi eggs for basketballs, Lakitu is our coach.
 
Cons *A bit boring if your all alone.

*Only 3 levels, not many extra things, but level effects like Bowser statues that blow fire make up for that.
 
Impressions
Gameplay
9 / 10
The gameplay was stupendous, the programming put into this basketball game had to have been tough to accomplish, and it amazed me. It's outstandingly fun, especially if you have someone to play it with.

Mario and Luigi even have different enginees for their skills, like 'better jumping' or 'throw power', etc.

With moves like spin jump and slam dunk, this game offers everything it can.
 
Graphics
6 / 10
The graphics are okay, mainly based on Yoshi's Island and put together quite well. The court is just randomely in different places like "Bowser Lane" or whatever it was.

Three levels: A sky level, ocean level, and Bowser's castle level.
 
Sound
6 / 10
Good music, midis from energetic songs, party songs, rock songs, and some Mario songs. To make things better, in some frames the musics are random.
 
Replay
8 / 10
Heck yeah, this is worth saving to your computer. Due to its addictingness, this game will be worth many minutes of your time.
 
Final Words
8 / 10
This game is surprisingly addicting with superb programming and awesome gameplay. Download and enjoy. -Keep Creating, Keep Playing.-
