Customer Reviews

Great game, must have for wii
It takes advantage of the wii remote, and is a very fun game to have. There are a few events that are difficult, but none of them are impossible, and overall, with practice, they are all a lot of fun. It is also pretty easy to unlock the levels, so once that is done, you can have a lot of fun with friends over. It is definately a good party game, and everyone will have a lot of fun and laughs playing this game.

Mario and Sonic Olympic Games
This game takes more energy to complete each event than is necessary. The events are not very entertaining and the game overall is not worth purchasing.

Keeps up with WII Fun!
Excellent game and makes use of WII capability very much. More games are enabled as you play more and start winning.

One of the tricks is to select the right kind of character depending on the game you are playing (skill, power or a combination of both etc...).

I haven't played all the games yet, but so far it is great.
