Every Olympics title starting from 2008 had flaws. But what I find most disappointing about the 2020 Olympics title is that they really put no effort into the character roster and small details like the victory/losing animations. Rio 2016 at least started to improve by adding guest characters to every event. But this was very anticlimactic the way the series was going. The story concept was decent, but I can’t help but be disappointed the fact that they didn’t have more than 20 different events thus adding characters like the rest of the koopalings, Omega, Wave, and even Cream. But over the years the series started to decline in sales, and quality. I do appreciate what they’ve done since the 2000’s though.

The 2008 and 2010 games… Damn, I’ve got so many medals there. And so many world records. And most important of all… Many memories with my dad and brother especially. My parents don’t really like games, but Wii Sports (Resort) and the Olympic Games, they did play.

I remember playing Beijing with it had just come out when I was 5. It immediately became my favorite game. A few years later, I got the Wii disk for the Vancouver winter games and I was over-the-MOON! God, I loved those games. I can still head the Dutch dub voice saying all the characters' names and announcing a "rival had appeared!". Peak childhood, thanks for this lovely video.

Well, let's not be too dramatic now. The Olympics won't cease to exist, and neither will Nintendo/Sega (Not so sure about Sega tbh, but oh well). Let's hope the IOC comes back to their senses and collabs with them again.

I can still remember on my 8th birthday that I got Mario and Sonic at the winter Olympic on the Wii from my nephew. Me, My sister and friends played this game all the time. It was so fun that we made are own competitive game show. Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games is a underrated franchise, even though I never played them all. The impact, quality, atmosphere and fun of these games will always be remembered. Also if I own Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games 2020. I will own you in every sport online B)

Gentleman, It has been a privilege playing Mario & Sonic games across the years. Winter 2010 Wii and DS and London 2012 Wii were some of my favorites games ever, I will forever treasure the memories I made with these games, and play them from time to time. I plan to buy Tokyo 2020 soon and even though the series be over, I'm happy it happened. Its not just minigame collection, its a celebration, a celebration of sports, the olympic cities and arenas and a celebration of Mario and Sonic.

@portalwake976210 күн бұрын
I agree with most of your choices other than Sochi for the Wii U and Rio for the Wii U. But this series is great overall! Out of the ones I've played, this is how I would rather them: 1. Vancouver 2010 Wii 2. London 2012 Wii 3. Sochi 2014 Wii U 4. Tokyo 2020 Switch 5. Rio 2016 Wii U 6. Beijing 2008 Wii Ngl this is based on nostalgia 😂 I couldn't get to play Rio for a while because I didn't understand how to make the games open when talking to characters with your Mii, and when I finally figured it out I didn't enjoy the events much. I only got Beijing to complete the collection and I found the events too hard to get a good place in. Tokyo 2020 was amazing because of the variety of events, as well as the retro events, story mode and online multiplayer as I was finally old enough for my parents to let me do it by that point! I probably could've done online multiplayer in 2014 and 2016 but I couldn't understand how to set it up by that point. Sochi's events weren't all great, but playing that "festival" mode, if you like, was fun, I enjoyed facing rivals, and OH BOY did I love the Bullet Bill sledge race and that one where you keep changing Olympic equipment! If only they were sports irl! London 2012 was great because, well, I'm in the UK, and it was the second game in the series I got so I'm obviously gonna enjoy it, and Vancouver 2010 is at first purely because of nostalgia. In both games I also enjoyed the rival battles, and I'm sad we could never unlock them, however you did have the Mii costumes to make up for it! Vancouver 2010 is what got me into Mario, Sonic and videogames in general!

Pretty solid list! I’m glad many agree that london 2012 is one of the best ones, makes me happy living in London lol. 2012 is very nostalgic for me as I played it a ton with so family and friends who had the game too. I didn’t get 2010 Winter Olympics Wii version until recently when a friend gave it to me but recently but it’s definitely really fun to play. I do want to be Rio 2016’s defender though because while it didn’t have the most going for it event wise it featured some very fun gamemodes and the tournament was some of the most fun I’ve had playing the Olympics on my own because of how challenging it was. Overall every game in the series had its highs and lows but I think they’re all very good, shame it’s all over now hopefully more people get into them and they can get some competition’s going similar to how people kept mario kart wii alive I’d love that honestly.
