Mario and Sonic will be duelling it out on DS and Wii in everything from trampolining to pole vaulting...
Fifteen years ago, the chances of Sega and Nintendo working together on a game would've been about as unlikely as Greece winning the European Cup. Fifteen years on and the crazy world in which we live has seen both things happening, what with Sega publishing the upcoming Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games in Europe/America, and Nintendo taking on publishing duties in Japan.
Not only that, but Mario and Sonic will compete side-by-side for the first time ever in a wide range of events (20 in total) on the Nintendo DS and Wii:
- Fencing - Individual épée
- Archery
- Shooting - Skeet
- Gymnastics - Trampoline
- Gymnastics - Vault
- Field - High Jump
- Field - Pole Vault
- Field - Long Jump
- Field - Triple Jump
- Field - Javelin Throw
- Field - Hammer Throw
- Rowing - Single Sculls
- Table Tennis - Singles
- Aquatics - 100m Freestyle
- Aquatics - 4x100m Freestyle
- Track - 110m and 400m Hurdles
- Track - 4x100m Relay
- Track -100m and 400m
The Nunchuk and Wii Remote will be utilised to good effect, with gamers simulating swimming strokes, swinging the Remote to throw the hammer and notching the Nunchuk to shoot arrows. All this will be brought together in a series of game modes from 'Single Match' to 'Circuit Mode', and when you're worn out from all the athleticism, a nifty trivia/quiz game to test and expand your Olympic Games knowledge.
Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games will brandish official licenses from the International Olympic Committee and is due out on the Nintendo Wii and DS on November 23rd this year and the first quarter of 2008 respectively.

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!!!
