South Island - The SegaSonic & Sonic Team Forum! Welcome to South Island! Pull up a chair, grab a daquiri (non-alcoholic of course) and chill next to the old airplane for a while. ^_^ This is the spot for the gamers to come in and chat on the ORIGINAL Sonic. It's not just SegaSonic on discussion here, but Sonic's anime incarnations(Sonic X, the Movie/OVA, etc.) and general Sonic Team - Yuji Naka, Naoto Oshima, Phantasy Star Online, NiGHTS Into Dreams, and Samba! By the way - watch for falling Chu Chu's! ^^ |

Look out Canada here come Sonic and Mario
for a rematch at Olympics .
I wouldn't be surprised if this turn out to be true, seeing how much money the first title did.

Sonic owns Mario at snowboarding. >=D
Also, I don't own a Wii, let alone the original game. Hopefully, they'll add more characters and not the same ones from the original. |

If there is a new game I hope the presentation is a bit better.

Well. Playing as an atrociously underpowered Sonic against a gloriously magnificent Mario again will be a barrel of laughs.
But Ocean's C64 classic "Winter Games" will forever be my favorite winter olympics title, it'll be a tough one to defeat. *Amuses self by picturing Bowser on a snowboard... then remembers that I've seen that in Mario Party* |

Remember when some people were laughing at Sega for saying it would sell 4m on Wii and DS and now it's almost to 7m on Wii and 4m on DS?

Is it really that funny when M&S Summer Olympics outsold every other Sega title since...ever?

No. More like sad
Considering that Sonic is the only successful Sega series. And the Nintendo 'hardcore' only bought it because it's also a Mario game. Hell, they only buy Mario or Zelda.

Oh, please. V2, this shouldn't be a big surprise to you, but the "Nintendo Hardcore" are a minority of the Wii's userbase. Hence why E3 last
year happened. I doubt the minority of that minority who will buy anything with Mario in it (my impression of that crowd is that they resent the
"non-games" such as Mario Party and such) will make that big of a difference on sales.
The bigger and better reason would be that it was released about Christmas time and that it was a very family friendly looking title on that silly white console that everyone bought the previous two Christmas times. Makes sense to buy it. Oh and everyone has a DS. Everyone. Sometimes they have three, just so those who don't, do. I have 3. |

And Mario games don't specifically cater to the hardcore. And whenever I think of "hardcore Nintendo fans", I think of people who buy F-Zero and Fire Emblem and other niche titles in addition to the Zelda, Mario, Kirby, Pokemon, Wii ____etc. |

They never did.
