SEGA Europe has today confirmed that global sales of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games have gone five times platinum, smashing through the five million unit mark.
The title, available on Wii and Nintendo DS, sees characters from the Mario and Sonic universes coming together to participate in the official sports of the Olympic Games from 100m Sprints to the Hammer.
"With adored icons and fun game play, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games has shot to the top of the sales charts and is clearly resonating with the growing audience of casual gamers that want an engaging and accessible gaming experience," said Simon Jeffery, President and COO, SEGA of America.
"The market for entertaining games that everyone can enjoy is growing faster than any other segment in the industry, thanks in part to the explosive popularity of Wii and Nintendo DS," continued Jeffery. "A key element of our growth strategy at SEGA is to develop and publish games that appeal to this expanding market."
SEGA is also putting the finishing touches to the official game of the 2008 Olympic Games, due to be held in Beijing during the summer.

the n64 (ultra 64) was made in 1997 just after the snes era which lasted quite some time till sony killed off nintendo (if only sony knew nintendo would bounce back as well as they have maybe they might have made a console that doesnt cost so much to make as they did)

Surely this is THEE best new game to hit us since Super Mario Allstars on SNES??? Only had this game since tuesday, but already completely and utterly addicted. I just can't get enough. Amazing graphics, amazing variety of games to compete in, a very wide and varied choice of characters (and best of all, you can even take your own Mii character to the olympics!!!!), amazing sound effects, and most of all, immense amounts of fun. Think about all the chocolate you could give the worlds hugest chocolate lover, or all the shoes and handbags you could give to your mother, imagine all the sports memorbillia and alcohol beverages your dad could ever wish for, or just imagine all your birthdays and christmas's just came at once! That's seriously how much fun and enjoyment i'm getting from Mario & Sonic at the Olympics. My favourite games so far are deffinately Long Jump, and 100m Swimming.. However all of the mini games have become highly addictive and entertaining wether playing by myself, with friends, or even with the family! Suitable for all players at all levels, i'd say this game is without doubt a MUST buy... and if you're too skint to buy it now, deffinately add it to your Christmas Wish List!!! Mario or Sonic?? Whichever team you're on, you're gauranteed to have hours and hours of fun, entertainment, laughter and giggles, and a lot of competing!!! If the game entered the olympics, without a doubt it'd be miles ahead of everyone else and straight in with the GOLD!!!
