Why is Mario the standard for size, we already know he changes based on the mushrooms. I bet Bowser has actually stayed the same size and the potentcy of mushrooms has fluctuated over the years - the sunshine days mark a severe mushroom depression...
How is -At the Olympic Games, I the read reviews at http://www.buzzillions.com/dz_1995324_mario_sonic_olympic_games_wii_reviews
but would be interested in a more gaming oriented perspective?
tomknite, whatthecrap? this isnt meant to be serious. its just for fun. These guys just notice a lot of different funny things that people dont really pay attention to. oh, and the fresh prince rox
@ultra.starr:I was just going to type that! I was listening to Talk Radar 22, and started thinking, why is Mario the size standard? He normally grows and shrinks with every mis-timed jump.(or dies)
Then again, maybe the whole princess thing is a drug induced hallucination in the 2-D games and a dreams of regrets in the 3-D series ala Braid. Like Braid takes on the nuclear bomb, while Mario Sunshine takes on pollution ala Captain Planet.
As for Mario and Sonic at the Olympics, I'd say it's solidly in the rental category. My friend who likes more casual games to drink to liked it a lot, I thought it was just OK, but we had a lot of fun one night drinking and playing it while smack talking each other. While I'm a bit of a Nintendo fan-boy, I'll admit it's another mini game collection, and Warioware Smooth Moves and the first Rayman Raving Rabbids and even Carnival Games did it better... IMHO, of course.
If you're looking for a good semi-casual Wii game, I'd suggest: Order Up!. It's basically a cooking game, but really, it's like playing 5 minigames at once. It has some depth too, at least more than the typical shallow gameplay on Wii. It's short, so I suggest renting that one too, but it's really good, for what it is. 50 times better than Cooking Mama on Wii.
Dude, tomkinite, what the hell man? This website clearly isn't for you if you get like that over an article because things like this are pretty typical here, if you can't handle that, then I don't know what to tell you, go join a website that talks about the art in gaming or somewhere else where people sound like douches on a regular basis
