Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games will hit the Nintendo DS on January 22, 2008.
The epic face-off will pit bitter enemies Sonic and Mario in 16 events, including two native-to-DS competitions--10m Platform Diving and Cycling!
The Nintendo DS edition also features eight Dream events – five of which can only be found on the handheld game. Each Dream event takes an Olympic sport and brings it into a video game-inspired world filled with obstacles, power-ups and familiar opponents from the worlds of Mario & Sonic to challenge even the best players. These exclusive DS Dream events are: Dream Canoe, Dream Boxing, Dream Basketball, Dream Long Jump and Dream Shooting(Skeet).
Confirmation of the inclusion of no-holds-barred illegal pit-fighting event have not been verified, but we'd like to see the winner of that one anyway.
