Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games from Nintendo - Image 1

Way back during TGS 2007, it was announced that Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games was expected to sell four million copies. While this hasn't happened yet, it's got a pretty good start as the Wii version of the game hops up to first place in the UK for individual format sales.

For the week of December 8, newcomer Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 stands at the 20th spot. Out of the top spot is Dr Kawashima's Brain Training which dropped to second place, while Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare for the 360 has jumped up to third place from sixth last week.

Here's the rest of the top 20 for the week of December 8:

No it didnt get horrible reviews...not from everyone, and the conrtols are fine its just quite tiring......but i guess you wouldnt be able to handle playing it any ways....but see some of the Reviews.....

Game pro 3.5/5(thats like a 7-10....)

IGN 7.9/10 oh yeah thats horrible alright....

Gamespot 6/10 which is not amazing but not "horrible"

Meta Critic Overall 67%

Game Rankings 71%

Game informer was the most harsh with a

4/10 and 5/10....

YOU wouldnt think these two scores count but for those who do look...

Nintendo Power Magazine gave the game a score of 7.5/10.

The British Official Nintendo Magazine gave the game a very respectable 90% and a 'gold award', claiming the game to be "one of the best athletics games ever". hence the sales.....

Also.....Mario + Sonic at the Olympic Games received Best Wii Game of 2007 at the Leipzig Games Convention. so yeah.....everyone needs to get this game...

# Scores?? Who cares.. — Billie 2007-12-12 05:38

Honestly, I don't give a damn about scores....I have yet to play this game, but I will not let some paid video game dude's score prevent me from giving it a try..
