If this game had come out 12 years ago it would have been the biggest selling game.....EVER.

Plus all those school yard feuds would have been solved.

That reminds me of Billy Madison.

"Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis is the best video game ever."
"I disagree, it's a very good game, but I think Donkey Kong is the best game ever."
"Donkey Kong sucks."

is this going to be different in execution from Rayman on the Wii?

Actual competitive multiplayer instead of just waggling at the same time, so yeah. Rayman was fun, but you beat it in an hour or 2 and never want to play it again, multiplayer or not. At least this game is based entirely on the multiplayer.

Fencing could potentially make this game absolutely worth buying.

After all these years, the single most important question in the history of gaming will finally be answered:

MARIO VS. SONIC... WHO SHOOTS THE BEST SKEET?

Uhh I don't know what to think of this game.

I don't think I'll be getting it but I hope it does okay in sales.

I definitely dont expect it to reach the ridiculous amount predicted by that guy a few days ago...lol.

Just give Brawl with some REAL Online with Leaderboards and Lobbies and I'd be happy Nintendo. Yes I'm glad you put in Online in some form but I'd rather you give us the whole damn pie rather than a puny slice.

I'm curious, why do people care about leader boards?

Lobbies I understand, it makes joining a game easy and fast, but leader boards? Who gives a shit?

well, i feel the opposite way, i say Leaderboards > Lobbies, i think that choosing a game to join is irrelevant (as opposed to random assignment), unless you're choosing amongst friends, while i like leaderboards because its like the old "High Score" readouts in arcades, but for the whole country/world to see

Yoshi is a speed type? He is pretty fast in Super Mario World when he gets hurt, such a pain to chase him (Yoshi falls into a bottomless pit... "Nooooooooo!!").

I don't have a Wii, but I'm very curious about this game. The Olympics isn't really the genre that I fantasized as a kid for the ultimate dream match, but I'm open to new ideas. Last Olympics game I played was Nagano Winter Olympics '98; I'm due for my ten year overhaul.

We're getting steps closer to having Sega characters in the next Super Smash Bros., exciting stuff.

Yeah I'm not exactly excited about playing Vector =P They should have had Metal Sonic as a strength character!

Anyway, this sure is great finding out the roster all at once. --Stop toying with me, Smash Brothers!--

They have fencing and went with epee instead of foil or saber? what the heck ... epee is slowing and boring -- it was the choice of foppish nobles. Blah.

Then again, I'm saying this as if a Mario/Sonic fencing mini-game will have any resemblence to real fencing.

I'm particularly worried that Epee has got a rather "in-out" motion to it, and that "moving the Wii remote closer and further from the screen" mechanic has so far not worked very well, IMHO.

That's a really good point about epee! Sabre might have been a better choice -- it's fast, and you can kind of whip the controller a bit more.

@Terry and Jay

It depends on whether they would use the accelerometers or ir sensors to track the in/out movement. The accel's have proven not to work so well, but MP3 proved that, that motion can be tracked perfectly using the ir sensors.

Seriously... Tails in the skill class?

...i mean, when was the last time you played sonic 2? Tails fucks everything up, especially in the bonus stages... I think these "classes" need to be fixed

...and now that this has been announced, when are they announcing sonic in Brawl?

Other than Sonic and Shawdow the speed type entrants are kind of interesting.

This whole thing was meh to me until I saw the player select... Then something inside of me just leaped with joy...I think I found my lost inner child. Who cares if its an Olympic game.

In any case who is green guy in the power type. It kind of looks like a kremling but if that's the case why wouldn't they just put Donkey Kong instead.

I can't tell who it is, but it's gotta be from the Sonic-verse. Mario has 2 homies in each category, and so does Sonic, and they list them in an every other homie fashion.

Hey somebody, who is it?

He's "Vector the Crocodile" from Knuckles Chaotix (32X) and Sonic Heroes (multi). Lame if you ask me. It would be better to put Amy in the Strenth class, with her giant hammer and all, and put Metal Sonic in the balanced place.

they should include an easter egg where you can play Mario 3 with Sonic, or Sonic 2 with Mario.

Oh man, that would be too cool. That seems too much like a game I would just go out and buy as opposed to being just an easter egg within the olympics game.

I want your suggestion so much more than this olympics game.
