My 10 year old has had this for 2 months now & still LOVES this game. It provides hours of enjoyment with the different sports & skill levels. Unlike other games which he beats within a week, this one has been worth the money!

Great game Apr 07, 2010
By 3 dogs 3 cats 3 people
"LUV2TRVL"
My 5 year old was captivated by the 2010 Winter Olympics! Just after the games he was interested in buying this game with money he had saved. He has been very happy with his purchase. In fact, he loves it so much that I have to limit the time he spends playing it. He has only had a DS four months, but seemed to pick up on how to play this game quickly by running the demo features.

 Winter Jams Oct 15, 2009
By Michael Kerner
"Michael Kerner"
When it has came down to Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games when it came out last year for the Nintendo DS, it really was a big surprise that really delivered better than was the case with the Nintendo Wii version, in controls and in gameplay. While the Summer Olympics has been over for over a year, now it is time for the Winter Olympics to come alive in January or February in 2010. But with all that feeling, there are so many people tyring to figure out what would be the best game to summerize the Winter Olympis. Back in 2006, there were so many that felt like they were just missing a lot of edge, and a lot of gamers chose other titles. With all the hype around now, Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Winter Games has finally arrived for the Nintendo DS. But there are some tweaks here that are different around, but is it worth it, or is it just a figure 8 accident? Well, it really isn't bad.
Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Winter Games for the Nintendo DS brings in a lot of the excitement and the gameplay that has delivered well from the previous game, but there are a few new things here that make the gameplay a bit different. First if all, there is a new Adventure mode that you have to go through, where you have to accomplish certain golas and unlock all the events through the story. At times, it can take a lot out of you, but is the only way you could get to play alll the games, before you master the game. There are also new characters coming to the game including Metal Sonic, Donkey Kong, and Silver Sonic. The events range from ice hockey, the luge, to skeleton, downhill skiing and ski jumping, speed skating, to rarely recognized like the Biathalon (skiing and skeet shooting targets), as well as dream events like the original Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games. The graphics look great, the control is mostly strong in some events, but at times during some of the events like Ice Hockey, it can be a bit frustrating, especially when you're using the stylus at times, and takes awhile to get used to, but the gameplay is really a lot of fun to maintain.
Overall, while Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Winter Games is a great title for the Nintendo DS, there could've been a little more. Nevertheless, it really is a great title to enjoy for anyone whom had loved the original version, and anyone who is eagerly awaiting what is next. I really like the game a whole lot, and I absolutely recommend this as a great addition to your Nintendo DS library. While you might await to see what does come next year and who will win the Olympic Gold Medals, but for right now, let Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Winter Games handle in the real fun.
