What is the Home-Run Contest? It's a competition to see who can hit Sandbag the farthest in just ten seconds!

You see Sandbag and a character on the platform.

At the start, it's just you and Sandbag.

Then you just beat Sandbag silly, filling up his damage meter.

There's only a 10-second time limit!

Before time runs out, grab the Home-Run Bat on the ground and do a smash attack with it!

PWANG! You launch him!

Fly! Flyyy!

Compete for longest distance.

Flight distances are recorded for each character. Go! Break the record! Set your own!!

But this time... there are four differences!

  1: The stadium platform is protected by a shield.

Whoa! This nice feature keeps you from falling.

If you don't put some force into it, you won't break through the shield, so you can pummel Sandbag to your heart's content. Surely this will allow you to string together new combos.

  2: Two players can play together.

Incredible! Two can enjoy it!

As a tag team, you can challenge yourselves to set even greater records. You'll have to work perfectly together, though.

  3: Two-player alternating play.

Compete for distance in two matches!

Ah, competition—that's what the Stadium is all about. Players compete to see who can hit the farthest.

  4: Online competitions.

You can't tell from this shot, but this is an online match.

This option can be found under With Friends. And it supports both the two-player cooperative and two-player alternating modes.

This is some rather rich functionality. You'll be able to play just this mode quite a bit. Amazing, isn't it?

but the multiplayer version Online and stuff like that
HIGHLY has me intrigued.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Nintendo is trying to add online aspects to like every mode of this game? Next thing you know, you can arrange stickers in multiplayer over Wi-Fi -_-

I wonder if you unlock anything from getting a very far hit?
