Good fun

Customer Rating:
Like most others I have enjoyed this game, it's good fun and much better than older Olympic style games I'd played before.

My biggest fear was that it would just be about pressing buttons as fast as you can with no real skill involved, but the controls are a lot simpler than that and the game makes use of the Wii controls to good effect. Technique is far more valuable than being able to press the buttons quickly, so I was pleased on that score.

The variety of events and characters is really good so you're not likely to get bored and even once you've played every event there is always the urge to go back and beat your previous best record.

My only gripe with this game is that you seem to spend an awful lot of time doing nothing - waiting for the game to load, pressing through the menus etc - as most of the events are pretty short. You can't ever really get on with playing for more than a couple of minutes and there are quite a few interruptions.

But I still recommend it and it's great fun if you can play against your friends. The graphics and music/sound are were also a pleasant surprise.

Grandchildren have played non-stopwith this game much to the annoyance of their mother. Says it all.I suppose I will be badgered for Mario & Sonic at Birthdays and Christmas for more of the same.

mario and sonic wii game

Customer Rating:
Great fun to play for all the family, only touble is it takes a while to load each sport, it has to go thru a scenery process of the venues.

Super game, lots of fun

Customer Rating:
Typical Super Mario, Nintendo Wii game. Easy to pick up and play, lots of fun for all the family, young and old.

I like this game. The price has been slashed a lot. It is a bit unrealistic because e.g. in skiing there are massacre jumps and loop-the-loops. There are strange charactars and strange games and game could maybe be a little bit more like the Winter Olympic Games. Overall I like this game and despite not being my type and a little bit strange, I give this game a full four stars (no more, no less). Tom Collins (aged 10)
