Whatever the sports these games do, a dedicated Mario sports game does it better. ~~Because no Sonic.~~ :V

you don't say that a game dedicated on a single sport does it way better....?

Well, duh, I'm not stupid.

I haven't elaborated on my point, that's the problem. I mean, why bother playing the hockey variants in Mario & Sonic when Mario Sports Mix does it better? Or the soccer variants?

But I do like some rugby, but I don't have high expectations for it. I'd rather have an entire game of it.

I actually forgot Sonic,Amy,Knuckles,and Eggman looked like that. I guess I seen too much Sonic Boom.

If Rosalina ever appears as playable, who will be her rival?

If equestrian returns, this game would be the perfect time for Rosalina to wear her winter outfit, along with her gymnastic outfit and her athletic outfit. Also if tennis includes as an event, bonus points for her tennis outfit. BOOM!

Cause some of us are filthy Sonic fans that want to play as their favorite characters from that franchise in said sports :V

Even if it's true Mario Sports Mix and the solo sport Mario titles ought to have better gameplay overall with less games to implement. But it wouldn't be the Olympics if there were only a few sports available.

I'd say they should just focus on the dream events though rather than the "true" Olympics. Dream Events always seem to be the best part of these games.

Which is why I hate London 3DS even more.

A few minutes ago, these screenshots popped out from the Rio 2016 official blog (http://www.rio2016.com/blog/en/). Were removed minutes later. It's probably a leak.

Spoiler: what I only found were these (click to show/hide)

Am I reading it right that there are multiple Marios in Rugby 7s? That would be funny to look at. In fact, I would like to see multiple Eggmans playing that game.

The Sonic balloon looks kind of weird with it being the top body without the legs. It's probably not as weird as a floating head. Now that I think about it, a floating Mario head would be suitable here.

As expected, Rosalina is one of the playable characters.

Thanks for reading.

Disembodied Mario head on a hot air balloon was the first thing that came to mind.

Oh look, Rosalina is back again and now being playable before Toad in another crossover game involved Mario now. Squee.

If you can do multiple Marios, I'd gladly create a team of only Marios and maybe one Luigi.

Rosalina is an Olympic games does not make any sense, now they are adding her for everything.

If Rosalina is really in it, yes.

I'm just excited to finally see her in something other than her normal outfit and the bike suit, unless they cop out and down give her alt outfits.

I think that started in Mario Kart Wii (the not making sense part). She's now ingrained in the Mario Universe as a reoccuring character and has become basically one of the prominent female characters in the Mario series. There's not a lot of female characters, and the fact that she is very liked by the fans gives them an excuse to add her to things.

I mean, sure Daisy and Toad and other characters should get as much attention as she's been getting since she debutted (talking in general, not just this game), but I guess Nintendo just likes her a lot.

Baby Luigi · « **Reply #53 on:** June 05, 2015, 04:59:52 PM »

Unlike other games I have absolutely no issue with Rosalina being in this game.

It made even less sense when she was playable in Mario Party and, to an extent, Super Smash Bros.

Rosalina is being treated and becoming Just Another Dang Princess™.

GalacticPetey · « **Reply #55 on:** June 05, 2015, 05:58:51 PM »

So does this mean Zazz is playable? of we're getting three playable Mario characters, Sonic will get and equal amount of newcomers.

Unless Rosalina is a rival as well.

I don't get this one. She's a mario character; a fairly popular one at that, of course she's going to be added to spin-off rosters. That's where those characters go.

She's a commonplace mario character now. It's not really out of the blue either, it began with MKWii and it's progressed to here. The whole 'she doesn't fit into these games' thing is kind of stupid too since there's no criteria for who can and can't be playable in a spin-off of all things.

I'm glad to see new characters since 6 years ago.

Eggman's seiyuu has been passed in January 15, 2015.
Who will voicing him?

Magikrazy · « **Reply #58 on:** June 05, 2015, 11:54:38 PM »

They will probably use just Otsuka's archive footage.

One of the screenshots has a Mario balloon. It looked like this.
