Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)
For over a decade now fans have been wondering just what a team-up between Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog would be like. Everything from traditional platform games to complex role-playing titles have been suggested, but it’s fair to say nobody imagined that it would finally happen in the form of an athletics simulator. It’s officially licensed from the 2008 Beijing Olympics though (Sega already had the license for their own more traditional tie-in) and contains all the usual events you’d expect including the 100m sprint, swimming, judo, table tennis, hammer throwing and archery. Sega have even been talking about using the new Wii Zapper controller for a spot of clay pigeon shooting.
More than twenty-five characters from both universes will be playable in the game, including not just Mario and Sonic but also Luigi, Tails, Yoshi, Knuckles, Bowser, Doctor Eggman, Princess Peach and Amy. Other characters will have cameos as judges such as Cream the Cat and Toad. You’d expect some characters to be naturally better at some sports than others but each has their own strengths and weakness, with even Sonic’s incredible speed mitigated by his slow acceleration. The whole game is developed by Sega but overseen by legendary Nintendo creator Shigeru Miyamoto, with full tournament and missions modes as well as online leaderboards for all the different events. The name may sound like an April Fool’s joke at first but this crossover could well be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Customer Review: Mario & Sonic - Brilliant
I bought this for my 7 and 9 year olds and they think it is fab. There are games to unlock which keeps the interest going. The games are unknown until they are unlocked.
Even the parents found it fun!
Customer Review: Brillant
Got this today and its great. The whole family love it.
Good graphics and great gameplay, a must for the Wii.
A good selection of events and the Track events and swimming can be knackering but also good fun.

Customer Review: does exactly what it claims
Very simply this gismo connects you to wii online when you don’t have wireless. easy to set up and works a treat
Customer Review: Works perfectly - connected to a network (LAN)
This is just great. Worked without a hitch, set-up was really easy and quick too. You do need to connect this to a LAN (Local Area Network) as the product name suggests; this isn’t complicated though. If you have a router then simply plug into one of the sockets, you could also plug into a network switch. If not then you may be able to use a crossover cable (not the included patch cable) and plug into your PC if your PC has a network connection. Once up & running it gives a really quick, trouble-free connection. Five stars. Definitely. Gives you all the online things like the voting channel, weather, news, and most importantly the wii shop where you can get all the downloadable stuff!
