Wow, this is probably one of the lamest ideas ever and people are chomping at the bit for it.  Waste a talented company like Square-Enix on something unnecessary like yet another Mario-themed sports game.  Shameful.  If they're really going to hand Squeenix a Nintendo franchise to play with, couldn't it have been something, you know, better suited to Squeenix's talents? 

I'm just throwing this out there but... Earthbound... StarTropics...?

EarthBound is not by any stretch of the imagination suited to Square-Enix's "talents".

At least Earthbound is actually an RPG.  Come to think of it, it's battle system seemed to have things in common with Dragon Quest.
