Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS

About Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games for Nintendo 3DS

Mario, Sonic and their friends travel to London for the Olympic Games, filling famous venues with friendly rivalry. The Nintendo 3DS version packs dozens of events into one cartridge, from sprint races and hurdles to swimming, cycling, gymnastics and table tennis. A story mode ties the events together as the heroes stop a fog based scheme, giving solo players a clear path through the Games instead of a plain list of sports.

Events use a mix of buttons, touch screen actions and system tilting, so one sport might ask for careful rhythm while the next wants fast tapping or steady aim. Football, badminton and beach volleyball sit beside dream like party stages, and medals plus records give every event replay value. Local play lets friends compete with their own systems, and the short event length suits handheld sessions perfectly. It is bright, busy Olympic fun with two famous mascots leading the teams.

London 2012 had a wide boxed release, so cartridges are not hard to find. The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, so new digital purchases are no longer possible today. The honest way to play is a physical cartridge from a retailer, choosing the region version that matches your system. Players who bought the game digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games and chase their old records at any time.

An Olympic party where every event feels different.
