Development[edit]

In January 2009, a rumor from Spanish Nintendo magazine Nintendo Acción mentioned a sequel to Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games would be created for the 2010 Winter Olympics.[9] Both IGN and Eurogamer received confirmation on the games' existence, with IGN stating the game will be announced within the following month.[10][11] Dennis Kim, licensing and merchandising director for the event, stated in February that a Mario & Sonic title '[is] being discussed and planned for Vancouver'. Kim also stated 'Vancouver 2010' and the IOC will share royalties from this game.[12] In the same month, the sequel titled 'Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games' was officially announced via a joint press release by Sega and Nintendo on February 12, 2009. The game was announced as being developed by Sega Japan under the supervision of Shigeru Miyamoto.[1] This title is the third video game collaboration between Nintendo and Sega.[13] According to gaming site IGN, development began immediately after the initial Olympic game was released in November 2007.[5]

An iPhone OS app version was released in January 2010 by Sega. Due to only containing Sonic characters, the game is simply titled Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.[14]

But it's a fun, polished party game with broad appeal, and a marked improvement over the previous one.'[26] Gamervision praised the game also, stating that 'Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games isn’t going to surprise anyone with its gameplay, graphics, controls, or concept, but it’s a perfectly serviceable party game for the Wii.'[27] Nintendo Life praised the events of the game, giving it a 9/10.[28] IGN called the Wii version 'impressive', giving it a 7.5.[29] Free ep evaluator online.
