I really like this game. I purchased the game due to advice from some of the previous reviewers. The graphics are good (perhaps not spectacular) and I really like combining Mario and Sonic characters. I've always thought those characters should battle each other. The game's good for both single and multi player use as it's fun to compete against my friends. I've even had Wii tournaments and this is one game that is played often (this and Wii Sports). The controls seem fairly intuitive for most of the events (although in some events, I'm still trying to figure them out). The dream events are fun and remind me of American Gladiator.
Perhaps some points would've made it a stronger game. Many have spoken about the need for true internet gaming (yep!). I'd would've loved to have picked sides--either play for the Sonic team or the Mario team. What was the purpose of choosing a flag, etc? Aside from the opening ceremony and the medals ceremony (which is only seen in single player mode), it's not very Olympic-ish. In addition, I wish one could post their scores on line despite what profile one uses.
I also would've liked it better had it had provisions for lefties like me. Although I'm doing pretty good with playing it right handed, I'd prefer to play it with my dominant hand.
Still, the grapics are really cute. I've had a blast with the game both in single and multi player modes. Perhaps they'll do a winter sports one with the theme around the next venue in 2010. If so, I hope they work out the bugs and improve upon a good start.
