Hey all! I just wanted to know everyone's opinion on the Olympic series. To me, this series is extremely nostalgic for me. I remember the countless hours I played the Vancouver and London games on the Wii. It is arguably the main reason I love the Olympics so much.
I was devastated when I heard that the Tokyo game might be the last in the series. I know it is a little late for an installation for the Paris Olympics, but do you all think there is a sliver of hope for us Olympic fans that the 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Games might receive a Mario and Sonic title? Would there be any demand for it?

@ThaBigFig
There is always the games replacement.
If SEGA doesn't make Mario & Sonic Olympic Games anymore (including their Olympic Games on PlayStation machines), then we can find the other sport games by different developers.
There are some alternative choices like 34 in 1 Sports, Summer Sports Games, Winter Sports Games, Instant Sports games, Winter Games 2023, etc.
Of course they have no Mario / SEGA characters but if you can deal with generic looking human characters, it might be your decent alternative choices.

@Anti-Matter Those sound like good alternatives. I’ll have to look into them. But that’s the kicker. No Mario, Bowser, Sonic, DK, etc. etc.

I've never played any of those games so I can't really say.

I liked them, despite the bizarre premise. The first Winter one was actually my introduction to Sonic in general. They definitely peaked with Vancouver and London which I'll stand by being some of the best minigame collections on the Wii, but I do miss them overall, even if they haven't been as good lately.

I might be one of the few people who played 2010 on DS, but I played it to death as a kid. The story mode was genuinely a great introduction for me to Mario and Sonic as characters, and the minigames make great use of the DS’ capabilities.
Highlight of a very waggle-filled series for me.

We need a real Mario/Sonic game that isn't this or Smash Bros., if you ask me.
