Mario & Sonic Winter Games Something Something

I was starting to get interested in this when hockey was thrown into the equation, but then I fell out when I saw the figure skating. Not my thang.

Warning: Prolonged use of this product may cause you to hallucinate sports fans in your own living room.

They paid for all of their seat, but as it turns out, they only needed the edge.

I'd rather eat someone else's pukes than playing this "game".

I LOVE SMILING AND PLAYING WII GAMES! AND IM JUST SAYING THIS CAUSE NINTENDO TOLD ME TO! *TWITCH* *TWITCH*

Seeing Shadow ice skate did something to me. Something Bad

I'm gonna go vomit and/or cry in a corner for a few minutes.

"Man, my friends are like fuck you, I just kicked your sorry ass all over the place dumb ass. They still like the games. Hell, my brother brings Summer Sports over, it works well with a crowd. "

No Motion+ or online?
 
It's like they want to make a potential killer-app flop.

Looks better than the original.

I am not feeling this game.

Who let these crowds of spectators into my house!?

I'm sincerely looking forward to this, I thought the first one was real fun with mates. However, this trailer kinda makes me worried about the input required for each event, especially without the motion plus. I hope they don't get too carried away with it.
 
And as for "money grabbing mini games", this is actually developed by the same guys at Sega who made Athlete Kings and Winter Heat, if anyone remembers those, so it's actually essentially those but with Sonic and Mario characters.

" When they lined up their chairs like that, I bet I could have killed them all with one bullet.  Also: Love to see a QL with bomb staff trying figure skating. "

Great, now I can have friends around and figure skate the night away!

Dude, that's awful. That kind of commercials probably work just fine in Japan though.

I have to admit though, that the Wii accessories make a lot more sense for a winter sports Olympics rather than summer sports. All the ski events with a balance board and the bob/sleigh events. 
 
I'm not supporting this or Nintendo (I gave up after the Gameboy died).
 
But if you've played Wii-sport games of any kind with friends you know that it turns into a cheese-fest. Especially the boxing.

@Zalasta:
 For teh lulz. It's mocking it and is for pure humor in the sense of how cheesy it is.

I'm more curious as to why GB would post this promo/trailer.  It just doesn't seem to be the kind of things that would appeal to most of the community and audiences here.  I'd understand if they get money out of advertising it, but if not, GB certainly isn't hurting enough for content to really need this.

Another money-grabbing waggle fest. FFS NEXT!!!
 
Oh and this comments thread = fucking hilarious!!

Thanks Brad... Raged so hard my eyeballs burst.....

Those people in the crowd need to shut the fuck up if I'm going to be playing a game.

If you think this commercial was bad, watch this. And I love the Wii, go figure.

"Anyone else starting to get tired of the Wii commercials? It just looks so fake, the way the people in these commercials behave. "

"This has to be the cheesiest trailer for a video game ever. "

Goodbye world *Jumps of building*

More mini-games for the Wii....

Their living room must be cold.

O boy.....

Cheese is coming out my eyes.

Feel the rhythm! Fell the rhyme! Get on up, it's Mario bobsled time!
 
Wank.
 
(Thanks Coach.)

So Mario and Sonic are coming to Vancouver?

now i see where natal gets it from....

Mario & Sonic Something Something would be a way better game than this crap.  
 
Waiting for its Q1 2011 release! 

Haha I agree with the lot of you.
The "people" in the commercial "enjoying" the hell out it really put me off to the whole thing.
Plus, they should just make it a full mario party game! with sonic!

only game that will be played, hockey 
 
how to accurately change this commercial to reflect real life 
1. no one stands up...ever... 
2. all friends in background must not be paying attention due to excessive drinking and smoking 

This commercial is so "lolwut"

This looks like the least fun imaginable.

First Thought: They made ANOTHER ONE?!?! 
Second Thought: You know, wii commercials with a bunch of happy young people flailing around like idiots really un-sell me on the game.
