London Olympics is the best one.

[@josselinlouis6538]

@@CuteRedPanda64 I agree.

[@mylesworthy08]

​@@CuteRedPanda64Even the intro of London 2012 is the best.

[@DavidKalu-ho5ms]

I've watched so many walkthroughs of the 2014 Sochi Winter Games and always wanted to play it but I skipped from Wii to Switch😢

[@IBL15]

Vancouver 2010

[@Kazzy_Lmao]

If the series isn't over, they need to bring back the winter ones instead of just focusing on summer

[@starfox522]

They will bring back winter before they do summer

[@FowaJCT]

Neither Sega or Nintendo don't own the rights anymore to the winter Olympics.

[@ShyGuyKart]

Winter Games will not return, as I discussed in the video. It’s unfortunate

[@CuteRedPanda64]

Another thing that sucked about the Tokyo Olympic games is that they didn't have the Miis.

[@mylesworthy08]

Agreed

[@ShyGuyKart]

Exactly! Like…what was the reason to remove them 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@mylesworthy08]

Mario & Sonic: Beijing 2008 ✅ Vancouver 2010 ✅ London 2012 ✅ Sochi 2014 ✅ Rio 2016 ✅ PyeongChang 2018 ❌ Tokyo 2020 ✅ Beijing 2022 ❌ Paris 2024 ❌ What if Mario & Sonic gets a crossover main adventure game like Crash and Spyro did 20 years on GBA. The two games could be called "Super Mario Blue: The Eggman Project" and "Sonic Red: Bowser's Rage" for the Switch or Nintendo's new upcoming console.

[@evolutioner8573]

nice idea, but it seems unlikely..

[@ShyGuyKart]

I love the idea!! I hope that Sega & Nintendo rebrand the series or make a whole new game series

[@josselinlouis6538]

As a french person i was excited to see France in a M&S OG as i know this year's olympic games are in Paris. But it wasn't announced and i found it disappointing.

[@ShyGuyKart]

It wasn’t surprising since 2018 was missing too and the 2020 rollout was a mess. The only option for a new M&S game is in 2028 and even then it isn’t guaranteed. Very sad…

[@glauciarochelle]

the olympic winter games have one of the best musics remix

[@DavidGames1011]

This video really does explain the Mario and Sonic situation. It’s sad to see how much wasted potential the series had :(

[@ShyGuyKart]

Yep for sure, company’s really don’t know what fans want

[@SuperNintenGASGalaxy]

I played the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics and the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics. As a fan of Mario and Sonic I really loved this series. I really wish they make a new entry for this series soon

[@mylesworthy08]

I really wish there's a Mario & Sonic Paris 2024 game.

[@MarioKartGamerDude]

It's really hard to say at this point if we don't get another Olympics especially since Paris 2024 is in July, it's not IMPOSSIBLE for a game to come out after the Olympics are done but i'm pretty sure we would've heard it by now Right now Sega seems to be mainly focused on Sonic x Shadow Generations and Sonic Movie 3 and then Nintendo has their own projects There's not even an official Paris 2024 video game out there and we've had those in the past as well as the Mario and Sonic games, so it's hard to say, very weird right now

[@ShyGuyKart]

The only option for a Mario & Sonic game is in 2028…yikes!

[@Keletnemetfiu]

It's worth mentioning that the (3)DS games were always completely different from their Wii(U) counterparts. London 2012 on the 3DS had the most sports in the series and a pretty cool story mode. Most if not all the DS/3DS games had very decent story modes actually

[@Cam10_84]

Things to note about the Tokyo games. They not only made a Mario and Sonic Olympic game, but a Sonic Olympic mobile game, and M&S Arcade game, and a Official Olympic game with real ish people. And also Covid.

[@sweetoil2952]

I remember Hero’s Showdown!! I loved it! The devastating moments where your team member is stolen from you to the other team are thrilling 😆 I don’t remember exactly how it goes, but I love how the mode worked. Sadly Rio and Tokyo are the only Olympics I’ve been able to play, aside from the demo of London on the 3DS (which I loved). I love Rio quite a lot, but I’m unable to play it anymore. Left with Tokyo, playing it mainly makes me miss Rio, so I haven’t played it for a long time 😞

[@brandonkong4299]

I still remembered being so excited for Rio when seeing that Diddy Kong was finally gonna be playable…only for that excitement to dwindle months later finding out that getting new characters was just a fluke

[@ShyGuyKart]

@@brandonkong4299 For real!! They clickbaited us! I thought Rosalina and Wave would be permanently playable but NOPE! Did you enjoy him in rugby though?

[@brandonkong4299]

@@ShyGuyKart I didn’t even bother getting either Wii U Rio or Tokyo cause playing Diddy for only one event would only get me just that content of their respective games meaning just Rugby I wouldn’t play anything else so that idea of that would make me feel bored and wasting $60 just playing one event for one character, it’s gets worse when a friend on Miiverse was excited for Larry that I told him the truth and he decided to cancel his preorder

[@OrangeToadGamer]

Honestly I've always been a fan of this series, Mario & Sonic are two of my favorite characters ever, so having a dedicated crossover series for them was really cool to me as a kid, even though I think a RPG or Platformer would be more interesting, I still don't mind the olympics either

[@dreamcube8996]

Nintendo & Sega Try to make a cross over with Mario and Sonic.But couldn't agree on what the world should look like

[@mylesworthy08]

Maybe a crossover adventure game like Crash and Spyro did back in 2004.

[@TheMack625]

Your statements on the Tokyo Olympic Games is a bit similar to mine. I find it fun, but it feels oddly...corporate, for lack of a better word. For comparison, Rio 2016 is a noticeably flawed game, but is filled with a surprising amount of depth and offers a festive vibe throughout. I feel invested in that iteration. In either case, Mario & Sonic is a series that I enjoy. London certainly was the peak with its Dream Events and London Party modes, but I also dig Vancouver (on DS), Rio, and Tokyo. I can live without Beijing and Sochi. Whether or not Mario & Sonic will return is a mystery. If not...then I have a nice collection of games to fall back on.

[@ShyGuyKart]

100%! It definitely feels corporate and the fact that the Miis are missing too is crazy! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@adark1289]

Technically the roster did change after the first one with the addition of Silver, DK, Bowser Jr. and Metal Sonic

[@rosaobsession]

rosalina was robbed of being playable TWICE 😭

[@mlkywine6852]

Literally Rouge as well. I love Blaze, but Rouge has more game presence than her and her being benched is crazy. Hopefully Pauline’s addition to the Mario spinoff will ease Nintendo’s fear of Rouge’s chest 😭. And we can have all three girls playable

[@rosaobsession]

@@mlkywine6852 we should expect a new olympics game this year right???

[@ShyGuyKart]

Unfortunately not, the Paris Olympics are this month and usually Sega releases the Olympic Games 6 months before the real Olympics. So no game this year or in 2026 due to the Winter Games License. So our only hope is 2028 Unless they shadow drop it next week for some reason lol…

[@davidaamaya1]

Maybe they can make an olympic superstar game like Nintendo did for mario party

[@sikosonix901]

The London 2012 entry was my first and favourite in the series. I loved playing the dream events and London party with siblings and friends. The music is absolutely BANGIN', and the UI is so colourful and lively. Vancouver 2010 was my next entry, and my next favourite. Loved the events, but didn't play it nearly as much due to the absence of a party mode. I did get all the other ones (except Tokyo 2020), but they weren't nearly as memorable.

[@PikoHammerLady]

We better get Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Paris 2024!

[@Keletnemetfiu]

It's a shame this series seems to be over now. I really liked the London, Vancouver and Rio games. Sochi was also alright. Didn't play Tokyo tho because nothing really new happened. I guess what killed the series was really the lack of innovation. Especially the character roster should have changed more. Why didn't they add full on new characters instead of these Guest characters?

[@Mojoenoe]

If they bring it back I want them to make an actual adventure mode like the winter games ds version I loved it

[@HuskiesGaming2000]

Wished the Paris 2924 came and I enjoyed these Olympic Games

[@Therealones745]

Imo good! The series was nothing but a waste of development and resources that could have gone into interesting sonic spin-offs. Plus let’s be real Nintendo was the only one who benefited from the series. A Mario and sonic is a stupid idea to begin with since the series couldn’t be more different, Mario is just about “saving their girls” and sonic games are more about saving the world. Mario is fairly simple with no story with all the characters being mute, sonic does more ambitious stories with very vocal characters. It just wouldn’t work.

[@sonicroc237]

I didn’t play these games but I’m gonna talk about them anyway.

[@ShyGuyKart]

[@SqweegeeYT]

NINTENDO/SEGA HAS FORGOTTEN ABOUT MARIO

[@ShyGuyKart]

[@magicvalgirl2309]

I think they're coming back sooner than we think because... Paris is the next Olympics coming up this year or next summer. I mean, M&S did releas theirs a year early for Tokyo due to the pandemic, so either Nintendo and Sega are going to reveal it out of nowhere, or they're reserving it for the next console next year!

[@DOYOUGOTGAMEONYOURPHONE]

Quick question how does everyone feel about The new Mario party also “saving their girls” sonic isn’t in a relationship with Amy The only relationship he ever had was stripped away because of legal reasons and a comic

[@ShyGuyKart]

Mario isn’t in a relationship with Peach either but I was referring to the main girls in their franchises
