Beijing 2008 Olympics coming this summer, loses Mario & Sonic

This article is over 17 years old and may contain outdated information

Sega isn’t done making games based off the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Since Mario and Sonic settled their past rivalry over long jump, Sega can focus on making a realistic rendition of the 2008 Olympics with thirty five events. While Sega doesn’t have mascot characters as a draw, Beijing 2008 will have online play. PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC owners can pick this up in the summer. Notice how the Wii is out of the picture? Perhaps, having two games based off of the Beijing Olympics on the Wii would be overkill.
