Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games

 MARIO AND SONIC AT THE LONDON 2012 OLYMPIC GAMES

Today, let's go over the third game in the Mario and Sonic Olympics series, this one made to line up with the 2012 Olympic games hosted in London. All ten characters return on both sides, as the series doesn't really seem to have felt any need to update this since that first game. All of our referees return in the same roles as well. Birdo acts as a rival in Badminton, Dry Bones for Table Tennis, Dry Bowser for the Long Jump, King Boo for a Sprint, Eggman Nega in Fencing, E-123 Omega in Track Runs, Jet the Hawk in Discus, and Rouge the Bat in Hurdles.

We are back to Summer Olympics, so our events include: 100m, 110m hurdles, a four-man relay, long jump, hammer throw, discus throw, javelin throw, uneven bars, trampoline, rhythmic ribbon, 100m freestyle swimming, synchronized swimming, canoeing, equestrian, badminton, volleyball, table tennis, football, shooting, fencing, track cycling, and dream events for long jump (based on Yoshi games), rafting (down a Cheep Cheep-filled river), discus (set in Sonic's Windy Valley), uneven bars (set in Sonic's Grand Metropolis), hurdles (based on Super Mario Galaxy), equestrian (while guarding Yoshi eggs), sprint (based on Sonic casino levels), trampoline (set on the ARK Space Station), space walk (based on Good Egg Galaxy), and fencing (set on Seaside Hill).
