First trailer of Sonic and Mario at the Beijing Olympics, lol.
And pics!

Looks...like a normal Olympic game with Mario and Sonic characters thrown in.

Looks lovely. :O Is that a sea of Yoshis I see in the stands???

Robotnik vs Bowser! Mario vs Sonic! The matchups that everyone who had a game system in the early 90's dreamed of!

I must have this.

Just the way the two franchises should have NEVER been mixed! In a totally unrelated sporting event set in a bland, real-world version of China! HOW EXCITING.

I agree.

Couldn't they atleast have it take place in the Mushroom Kingdom and have Sonic as visitors?

I don't even see fucking rings!

Maybe there is a story for it: Sonic and Pals still stuck on earth try to find a way out were a mysterious golden pipe pops out in China at the start of the Olympic games. Bowser pop's out and claims to take over and teams up with Eggman (for some reason) and forces the earth to find it's best competitors to compete or surrender the planet (They've had wackier plans...). Being earth's defenders, Sonic Rushes to the scene and join Mario who fallows Bowser out of the pipe in a competitive battle of sports!...

...maybe not, but I don't care as long as it has the same cool appeal as WiiSports did! Here's hoping Miyamoto's presence plays a big role in the quality of this, and future SEGA games. I never hated Sammy before, but darn if I don't now.
