Mario Strikers: Battle League/Story Mode

Mario Strikers: Battle League/Story Mode, as the name says, is a story mode that is available in Mario Strikers: Battle League. This story mode acts like the story modes in Mario Tennis Aces and Mario Golf: Super Rush. Unlike the other story modes, Mario and Luigi finally have written text dialogue, unlike the games' story modes. Another difference is that this game has voice dialogues included for all characters with English as the default language in all languages ​​of the game, just like the most recent Mario games, but not all story mode scenes have full voice dialogues, with some of them limited by grunts and short phrases, like Mario saying Okey-dokey! and Luigi saying Lets-a-go!.
