Mario Hoops 3-on-3

Mario Hoops 3-on-3 is a stylus-driven basketball game where you control three-character teams entirely through the DS touch screen. Dribbling, passing, and shooting all happen via taps and swipes—no buttons involved. Pick from Mario characters, then play standard 3-on-3 matches with a twist: coins scattered across the court add to your final score, so you're chasing currency while defending the basket. Power-ups like Red Shells and Bob-ombs disrupt opponents mid-play. The game offers tournaments, local wireless multiplayer, and side mini-games. It's arcade basketball with Nintendo items instead of realistic fouls, built around stylus gestures rather than traditional controls.
