Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: 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. Harrison Dent Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - Brilliant - recommended for everyone!!Just brilliant. Another amazing game with the lovely Mario (plus Sonic and characters from both games!) As with all the Mario games, this game is packed with millions of mini games and levels to unlock. Everytime you play it you want to beat the previous score which means you never put it down!! This game has entertained me for hours, trampolining, throwing the javelin... The multiplayer version is good, although it has 8 events for you to choose from, it is a shame that you cant play more of the events that are on the single player verson (table tennis, etc) But overall, an absolute must!! Well worth the money!! Rating: - ExcellentThis was one of the first games I got for my DS and I wasn't at all disappointed. Excellent characters and great playability. The use of the touch screen, with the buttons and also bringing the microphone into play is mint and every event has different controls. The game is also great played via download, competing on the long jump when you're all clapping before the start, or rubbing the screen like a manic on the sprints really has us all in stitches! Only one small critism is that it can get a bit repetitive when you're on trying to get gold for every character, but this is only after a lot of play an shouldn't put anyone off buying. This game really highlights the capabilities of the DS. Rating:  - Another successful Mario game!!!!!! :):):):)As the menu comes up, you get to choose what olympic game you'd like to play eg- Fencing, Running, Long Jump and many more. Firstly, it'll tell you how to play and them and you simply play them. You get to pick the character you want and each one will have a different amount of eg- Strength. Overall it is a very good game and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the other Mario games. Rating: - The best game on the ds!!!Great fun, just as good as the wii version, if you have a ds and not this game then you are missing out. Rating: - Wonderful!I am 7 years old,and i have really enjoyed this game.It's brilliant! I saw an ad on tv,and bought it and i`m not not in the slightest bit disappointed! You can do lots of activities, they are all great! My favourite character is Amy. Buy it!!!! |
