Gameplay
Like the previous game in the series which centered around the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, China, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games features player chosen characters from both the Mario and Sonic game universe, entered into events taken directly from and inspired by the upcoming 2009 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver, Canada. The game features a variety of play modes, both single player and competitive multiplayer, including the new mission-based play of the Adventure Tours Mode. In addition to actual Olympic events players can also participate in winter-themed mini-games sprinkled throughout the game.

The action in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is made up of a combination of actual Olympic sports and special Dream Events, which are winter-oriented activities all about fun and that are specific to this particular game. Just a few of the actual Olympic events that players can look forward to trying their hand at include: alpine skiing, snowboard cross, bobsled, figure skating (singles) and skeleton. Dream events include, but are not limited to: extreme snowboarding, ski cross racing and fever hockey.

Mario and Sonic at the winter Olympics
Great fun, the games brilliant and fun to play especally with friends it gives a mixture of the proper games and the fun mario ones. There is also a nice career mode which you can do in a two player mode as well. It's better for more than 1 player and makes good use of the balance board. Lot's of fun especally for children. Mario and sonic done it again.


Review by Justin, a first grader
It's about 8 characters, and you go to one world. One world is sling shooting. "This is the best video game ever", said the guy in front of me in the store. It's rated E and it's good for kids.


Pretty good
I got this game and the summer Olympics game. This is a much more advanced game than the summer games one. This is a fun game and the controls are very easy to learn. I like the characters and the scenes. The game is a bit simple for me (being 23) but it's still fun with large groups. I think it would be a great game for younger kids.
