2 out of 5 stars Poor planning on Nintendo's part...   August 12, 2008
Michael Laferriere (Monson, Massachusetts)
Since ancient times the Olympics have been about competition. For whatever reason when you play with more than one player in Mario & Sonic it will not save records or medals awarded. IE, if you win a gold and set a new world records in sculling with two or more people playing at once, none of these scores will be recorded. So much for competition... Competition brings the best out in people and Nintendo failed to realize this which destroys a lot of the fun in competing and suceeding..

Not to mention no Wifi play, just uploading scores which is nice but these can only be viewed from the game itself. There is no way to check your scoring as in Guitar Hero... Save your money and buy the DS version of this, at least you expect that on a smaller more inexpensive version of the game.



5 out of 5 stars So Much Fun   July 31, 2008
P. A Carlson (Reno)
Overall this game is really fantastic. I've only had it for one evening but it's a blast. The controls are intuitive once you read the controller settings before the event. I don't think any event is necessarily too easy or too hard. It's nice to see all of the old Nintendo characters that I remember from the original Nintendo system but I think it's even more fun to use your Mii. The game definitely gets five interlocking rings.


5 out of 5 stars Great game, must have for wii   July 20, 2008
Jamie
It takes advantage of the wii remote, and is a very fun game to have. There are a few events that are difficult, but none of them are impossible, and overall, with practice, they are all a lot of fun. It is also pretty easy to unlock the levels, so once that is done, you can have a lot of fun with friends over. It is definately a good party game, and everyone will have a lot of fun and laughs playing this game.

This game takes more energy to complete each event than is necessary. The events are not very entertaining and the game overall is not worth purchasing.


5 out of 5 stars Keeps up with WII Fun!   June 12, 2008

Excellent game and makes use of WII capability very much. More games are enabled as you play more and start winning.

One of the tricks is to select the right kind of character depending on the game you are playing (skill, power or a combination of both etc...).

I haven't played all the games yet, but so far it is great.
