It was just announced and can be seen on MTVNEWS.com that a new game is coming out in which Mario and Sonic will both be making an appearance and no its not Super Smash Brothers or a Mario Party game.  The new game features both Nintendos' mascot Mario and former major competitor Segas' Sonic in a Olympic based game starring those two franchise characters.  It is the first time that these two companies have allowed the characters from their games to merge, this can only mean good things if the 2008 Olympic based game sells well.  The game will be released for the Christmas 2007 season.  If you want the real article visit www.mtvnews.com sorry for no link but my comp is really acating up right now.

Bleh, Olympics games. Traditionally, they're pretty terrible, aren't they? This doesn't sound fantastic.

yes, but its mario and sonic.  the novelty alone is worth at least a rent.

and besides, whos to say they couldnt pull of something sweet.    wii sports is great.   it would be nice to see how well the controls transfer to such a variety of sports

wow I cant believe with how little is going on in the Nintendo Wii forums that you guys let this thread die so fast. I thought people would have been interested to here that these companies are finally coming together to creat a game as one. It could eventually lead into a company merge sense Sega games are not selling so well on other platforms. Well anyways. I guess thats it.

If only it were something mildly interesting instead of the Olympics, and a game based on that. Give me Sonic in Super Smash Bros. Brawl please.

The only thing about this that's interesting to me is the amount of drool people have for Sonic and Sega.  Remember last May when they first showed off the Wii and people said it would be like the Dreamcast and put Nintendo out of business.  5 million Wiis later, we see the difference between Sega and Nintendo.

yea but this could be the begining of that type of genre for a game. Its a step in that process as i see it. If it sells well then expect them to continue to create games together.
