Unholy Sonic Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Picked up the new issue of ONM. Here's their preview of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games. Sonic: Well snap... I knew I shhoulnd have skipped Shadow's weaponry lessons on sundays cause I tought he looked like a dork... whatever! If you want to archive the scans, it's Official Nintendo Magazine December 2011 Issue 75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badnik Mechanic Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 Just asking... why does Blaze and Amy have swimming shoe's or whatever you call that compare to the Nintendo girls? I wanna see furry feet & toes~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedfreak Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 (edited) Because theres a design rule with Sonic characters in official products, you may not show their feet/toes. Once there was a rule saying you couldn't show Sonics teeth. I'm pretty sure this is official Sonic Adventure art. They have no toes.

Xenos Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 No ankles, either, man. No ankles. So like, how do they bend there feet then...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octarine Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 ...why would you ever put a spoon in an ice cream cone? I dunno, man. That art's old enough that I still feel weird taking a stand either way on the toes/no toes issue. And it is an issue for me, dammit; I hate not knowing about that kind of thing. It's the same reason Diglett makes me uncomfortable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedfreak Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Read the first review for this in my new Nintendo Power. They gave it a 7/10. They don't really say anything we don't already know. Some events are really fun, most are so-so. 31 events in all with 21 Olympic and 10 Dream. Not sure if I want to get it. I might get it for Christmas or wait for a price drop. I think I'll wait for other reviews before deciding since Nintendo Powers reviews can be all over the place IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tenth Doctor Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 So for Sonic it's still only Windy Valley and Power Plant? Graugh, I wish to see more fan service (Although I feel loved by Generations, some Mario and Sonic love is also wanted) so who can imagine some other stages?

BlueTidalGamer Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Considering the other 2 games usally got a 6 out of ten, a 7's not bad. I've always enjoyed the M&S Olympic Games and this one looks to be the best of the 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 10 dream events? That's one less than the previous game! All of my tears. Also in completely unrelated news, did the DS version get new cover artwork? Or am I just slow? It's beautiful. ;A; Also is that a weight-lifting Bowser I see? And just what exactly is that in Eggman's hands? I spy new events!

Eggman is ready to vaudeville hook anyone who dares to use jazz hands during the gymnastics event. Dropping below a camp factor of fabulous! will warrant a hook out too, so I hope that Mario brought his glitter leotard. Yeah, the hook is for field hockey as Wikipedia tells me. My imagination comes short again. Edited November 3, 2011 by Kintobor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Blood Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) That 3DS art is horrible. At first I thought it was awesome, then I noticed they didn't include Knuckles on the art. D= Fr srs though, it's pretty awesome. Sonic's just got that weird lip going on. Edited November 3, 2011 by Blue Blood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Vest Friend Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) Why is Bowser running with that weight? Weigtlifting does not require you to run about, you daft dodo. Edit: Also, if you look carefully, it turns out that he's checking out Peach's ass. Edited November 3, 2011 by VEDJ-F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detective Shadzter Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Europe gets the same cover: http://www.sonicparadise.net/2011/11/revelada-la-portada-de-mario-sonic-en.html I wonder if the UK will get a unique design, like with the Wii version.

speedfreak Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Bowser you can try to show off for Peach by lifting those weights all you want but it isn't going to work. She's just not that into you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterTSF Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 A press release said the 3DS version would have over 50 events. Also, that 3DS box art is epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detective Shadzter Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Oh, phew! I was worried there for a second. Still one less Dream Event though, so baawww. Hopefully they make up for the lower number by having every Dream Event take place in either a Mario or Sonic stage this time around, instead of including two and a half original locations like they did in the previous title. (Although admittedly I did like seeing Christmas Village in a playable light.) Have they shown off any of the 3DS' Dream Events yet? The portable version always had more of them, and I'm curious to see whether or not they'll take place in all original locations like the previous two or locales from Mario and Sonic's worlds this time around. Nope, we've not seen any Dream Events for the 3DS version. The official website doesn't even have that category in the 3DS section yet. http://www.olympicvi...don-2012/#/Home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sure as hell doesn't explain why she gets kidnapped so easily and doesn't highten the security whatsoever in any way at all. Very...odd. Hm.
