Is the Mario Strikers: Battle League First Kick demo still up?

Nintendo fans contemplating if they should purchase Mario Strikers: Battle League may be looking for a test run before committing to a purchase. But is the Mario Strikers: Battle League First Kick demo still available to download?

First Kick came out earlier in June, allowing players to experience Mario Strikers before it was released on June 10.

First Kick didn’t have all of the features of the full game. Online play was limited to certain time slots and it was only available as a 2v2 match. Players weren’t able to take part in online play solo. Still, it gave people a chance to try out the different characters and their special abilities. Early play already showed that some teammates were stronger than others.

Now that the game is released, the full game can be experienced once purchased and downloaded but some people are still skeptical after mixed reviews. Is the demo still available to try out first?
