It's for Wii AND DS! I will, for the first time, get both versions! You will also be able to play as Luigi, Knuckles, Tails, possibly Peach.
Like the look? THEN POST YO' THOUGHTS!

Eh. I like the idea of a sonic and mario game, but god, did it have to be the olympics?

Anyway, I'll have to wait to hear if it has good gameplay before I can comment.

Fans have always dreamed of Sonic and Mario in the same game. They finally announce one, but wow. The concept just seems all wrong. Olympic games? Out of all the things they could of done in a crossover, they just wanted to go with Olympic games. Why?

I would be fine with something similar to Spyro (No. I'm not fan. I just like the name. IT WAS A MISTAKE!) and Crash Bandicoot's crossover. Where they switch worlds.

But why the Olympics? Seems like advertising. Lame. Guess Mario did so many things, they ran out of ideas, except for this one.

I'd be surprised if this was pretty decent.

I have no confidence in Olympics games, really. I want a cross over between Sonic and Mario, but couldn't it be in something that has to do what the games are actually about?

I think it was a fantastic idea.

Haven't played the game yet, heard it was awesome.

Mario and Sonic in the same game sounds like a completely awesome idea. the Olympics though may not be the best idea.

Lengthly interview on the subject.

Seems that Nintendo and Miyamoto are working on it, rather than the Sonic Team, so it has a higher chance of not sucking even with its weird backdrop.

Quote:
PK: ...the Sega-Nintendo relationship...we're all very happy about it. I said to someone the other day that there's a thin line between love and hate, and we're in love.

GS: I see. [Awkward pause]


Quote:
GS: OK, the Olympics don't even start until August of 2008. Why are you releasing this game so far ahead?

PK: Well, let me just say that Nintendo's not usually early on things, and there you have it!

You guys all have a great point but....

You'd probably react the same if it was a different idea for a sonic-mario crossover. We've all been waiting for such a long time....For this crossover. I think it sounds great, and that you'll all be sorry for ever dissin' my homie!

Sorry...Couldn't help mahself. Anyways, I think the idea is great, and that the game itself will be pretty grood.

Mario has no chance in the foot races. He'll probably be better at throwing the shotput though, as he throws fireballs all the time.

I hope it doesn't turn out to be like those old 90's Olympic games, where the main objective was to press a button or two as fast as you can...

I doubt that that'll be a problem, considering the wii's controller stuff, but I wonder how they'll pull it off with the DS.

No way am I ever going to buy this, it just doesn't look like it'll work very well on the market. But I may as well be wrong.

I'm thinking this game can be successful if it's pulled off right. If it's another Mario Party-type game it'll likely be bad. If it has a Rayman: Raving Rabbids feel, then it has a chance.

If they made the games the same thought we would have a new worst viderogame. Nothing should be based off of that, playing-wise.

Lolno. I think I speak for 90% of sega/nintendo fans if I said that we would all be perfectly happy with sonic in a super smash brothers game.

I'm a huge sonic fan, having been playing them since about 94, on game gear, and having played and beaten almost every game (Still havent beaten either of the new-gen ones). That being said, I would hate to see them in a platformer, with a storyline. Just about anything else would work, though. Perhaps even a kart racing game. That would be fun. Kinda like mario kart, or sonic drift.

Well, Many news/game sites accepted this as fact immediately. I'm sure they all can't be wrong, none of them claimed those other joke things were real.

And if this is a joke, then they fail because It's not April Fools yet. If it is, I will never buy another SEGA Product.

...Not like they have made anything lately I'd want to buy.

Well, sometimes with April Fools, the climax is the "APRIL FOOLS!". The buildup can last for weeks. April Fool's Day is always the day that you scream "APRIL FOOLS!".

Also, remember that when a company mentions the Olympics, they undoubtedly have to pay massive royalties. I doubt they would waste money for this.

Exactly.


...When I say "This" I mean an April Fools joke. It doesn't create any Income, it would be moronic.

However, a game with the most legendary Cross-over of all time? The game will produce revenue, it will be more than worth it.

Hold on.

Royalties for a joke? I don't think so. If they actually made the game, they'd probably have to pay royalties.

Sega mentions Olympics on their official website, that's gotta cost them.

How about this, lets make a bet. I say it's real, and you say it's an April Fools joke. If this is an April Fools, I think we can agree we'll find the outcome before Noon, April 2nd.

...Think of some stakes.

Okay. If I win, you give me...

Jesus, I can't think of anything...

Oh, I know. You'll have to come up with what YOU get if YOU win, but if I win, I want some Princess Bride merch. ANYTHING you can find.

Or maybe some MK.
