Mario and Sonic in the same title, could it be one of the greatest marking strategies in this generation of Gaming? Mario & Sonic the Olympic Games is available on both the Wii and DS, since it's release late last year on the Wii and early this year on the DS it has received varying scores.

The first Olympic outing for 2 of the biggest names in gaming has already sold over 5 million copies across both platforms. This already huge number is only expected to increase later this year when the 2008 Beijing Olympics takes place. In Fact Sega will be competing against itself when it releases Beijing 2008. These sales figures came as a sigh of release to Sega executives who had predicted they would sell 4 million copies by this time.

Mario and Sonic at the Olympics has been extremely popular in Australia consistently being the best selling game on both platforms as well as taking out the honours for best selling game across all formats.
