Nintendo World Report writes: "For those unfamiliar with the Super Dodgeball series, it began with Super Dodgeball on the NES in 1989. As part of the infamous Kunio-Kon series (which also included titles like River City Ransom and Renegade), it sparked several Japanese sequels but didn't rear its head in North America again until an unofficial sequel came out for the Game Boy Advance in 2000. Now, after eight years on the shelf, the series comes to the DS and returns to its roots, although it may be adhering to those roots a little too strongly. As a fan of the original Super Dodgeball on NES, I can vouch for the fact that this game brings back everything from the original game; the problem is that it doesn't bring much with it besides the original game.
Basically, Super Dodgeball Brawlers is a ridiculous form of dodgeball. There are two sides of the court and seven players to a team, but only four players are in play at any one time. The other three patrol the three boundaries of your opponent's side of the court. Each player has a certain amount of stamina that they lose every time they are hit. Once every player on a team is knocked out, it's game over. There are also special shots, weapons, and melee attacks that add to the mayhem and arcade feel."
