Ungares sports game in fun atmosphere

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (video game)

Customer Review

For today's "casual gamers" (ie casual) like me, who has been interested in the 1990 video game, a "Mario & Sonic" game is first of all a real shock! Were the two mascots but incompatible for two different brands, companies, philosophies (Nintendo and Sega) which struggled fiercely for supremacy in the video game. Well, now (currently?) Nintendo has not just Sony and Microsoft showed how to reach a new target group get (me for example), but Sega had to completely out of the console business. And Sega produced today, licensed by Nintendo, for the former Erzkonkurrenten video games, in addition to the own mascot even the appearance of Nintendo.

Rather, I would have thought the Pope makes sometime advertising of certain rubber products!

For that reason alone be retro-gamers have to get this game.

But considering the Mario and Sonic clans of the game off and looks at soberly what is actually provided to subtle disappointment is spreading.
Every Wii console is in this country at the ingenious Wii Sports, which shows how sports games are controlled on the Wii.
Sega has not understood. Of course, one must wielding the remote, but you have too often also press stupid knöpchen and nachklimpern even faded key sequences. Hello?! Nachzuklimpern Superimposed keystrokes made already on the Game Boy is not fun. On the Wii, I find the superfluous as a goiter.
What's example logical mind that you not only have to use the two controllers rhythmic rowing (that would be rowing!), But with every Ruderzug also two must constantly press changing, on-screen buttons? Where there is the point?
Fun does not do that anyway

The list of minor detail deficiencies is quite extensive and seems to show that the game - no matter what - necessarily for Christmas 2007 had to be done: The explanation of the control each sport is usually quite crude and often plain wrong: man consistently has the Wiimote horizontally hold, even if the statement "vertical" claims.
In multiplayer disciplines like the dream race to indicate the player number in the split-screen is exactly as displayed in bold, where you really have to pay attention to emerging obstacles.
In some disciplines you will shake Wiimote and simultaneously serve fine-tuned the Steurerkreuz.
In the skeet shooting can only cope if you have learned the sequence and trajectory of the clay pigeons by heart (also a relic from the video game Stone Age)
Table tennis flaunts a bold white longitudinal line on the table, which makes the white ball when he is about it, almost invisible ...

And and and.

Nevertheless, I do not regret buying the game. On the one hand because of the Mario & Sonic - Sensation and on the other to make some really fun disciplines: 100 meter sprint, 100 meter hurdles, hammer throw, for example.

But unfortunately I have to say that more would have been possible.
Ah, but only the Wii-Sports-makers of the control would have believed: it could have been more than a great game.
