    5 Stars Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics 29/12/2011

    Advantages Advantages Excellent game ideal for the whole family

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None for me

    I have had my Wii for a few years now and buying games for it isn’t something I do on a regular basis and tend to wait for birthdays and Christmas. Whilst my husband has various sports games for the wii I prefer to play on things like my Wii fit and party style games where the whole family can join in. Last year I received Wii Party for Christmas and was hoping that there would be a new version out this year but was disappointed to find there wasn’t, so instead my husband brought me Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, its a similar style to the Wii party games you can buy ... more

    Advantages Advantages Lots of different events; colourful, range of difficulty.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages wii remote control

    My two children thoroughly enjoyed Mario & Sonic at the Olympics and at the Winter Olympics (as did the adults in my family too!) so it was a natural progression to check out the London 12 Olympic Games on the Wii. All of the characters are there from the first two games so there is plenty of choice when it comes to who you want to represent you in the games. Each character has differing abilities in terms of speed, strength and skill so this suggests that there are some tactics involved, depending on which of the events you are entering. However, it never really seems to make much difference ... more

    Advantages Advantages Some fun games, looks great.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Poor controls, no Motion Plus, some stinkers.

    In what is fast becoming its own franchise of games, this is the third throwing-together of Nintendo and Sega’s leading protagonists – and it’s one that stays true to form, cashing in on the coming Olympic Games whilst offering an experience that’s only really of passing interest and diversion. As with the previous outings – the 2008 Olympics and the 2010 Winter Games – this crossover sees characters drawn from the Mario and Sonic titles pitted together across a variety of Olympic events. With its official branding and mascots, recognisable (mostly) characters and bright, happy graphics, the ... more

    Advantages Advantages lots of new events, the dream events

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none for me!

    The Past As I have mentioned in past reviews, I grew up playing games on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), most of my favourite games when I was younger included my favourite plumbers Mario and Luigi and their dinosaur friend Yoshi, and of course Princess Peach, who always seems to be running into bad luck and getting captured by the villain in this game King Bowser. I spent hours trying to rescue the Princess in games such as Super Mario Bros 1, 2 and 3, Super Mario World 1 and 2, The Lost Levels and of course Mario 64 when Mario became for 'advanced' on the Nintendo 64 console ... more
