The events are set at the 2008 Olympic Games but instead of using real life Olympians you use a number of fictional game characters and Mii's from your Wii system. Most events are included such as the 100m sprint, javelin, hammer throw, swimming and shooting, and they are all performed ...  Read the complete review

This game is fantastic. I have never played such an energetic and fun game in all of my life. There are so many different modes to choose from in the olympic games and the makers of this game really have thought of everything. The graphics aren't great but then again the Wii was not created for brilliant graphics was it? I ...  Read the complete review

Mario Olympics was one of the first games i got for the Wii after reading other good reviews! This game really makes you work especially on events like running or swimming and after a while i have to admit it did make my arms ache quite a bit. None the less the quality of each event is very realistic for a computer game, things like the ...  Read the complete review

I bought this game because the commercial made it look like great fun! Unfortunately I was a bit disapointed, firstly most of the game is locked. You Have to unlock it by compleating games at a certain level, this can be quite hard and very time consuming. I have had the game for 8 months and I got bored trying to unlock some of the more ...  Read the complete review

The control systems are really well explained before ...  Read the complete review

Whoever thought it was a good idea to put both Mario characters and Sonic characters together in a game was a genius! The characters blend well together, each character with different abilities and best event. The game idea is so simple, and I have to admit, I was a bit dubious of the whole thing - I mean, how fun can doing different olympic ...  Read the complete review

Mario and Sonic have combined brilliantly here, what a great idea from Nintendo. This game relies a lot more on hand to eye co-ordination and is the reason why it is so much fun.
