Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020

During the holiday season we host a lot of out-of-town guests at our home. We try to keep toys and games on hand to help keep everyone entertained. The older kids and adults really like to play electronic and board games. Every year we update the games that we have so that they can play with something new.

There is an Olympic event for everyone to enjoy! You can play up to 4 players locally and 8 online (Nintendo Switch Online Membership Required). The game is recommended for children age 10 years and up. Perfect for adults of every age too!

One of the things that my 58 year old husband liked about the game is that the interface is really easy-to-use and understand. You can quickly select your player mode, the game you want to play and set up your button & joystick controls. He was telling me that some games are really confusing when it comes to setting things up but this game was really easy to figure out and get started.

During the holiday break we had kids from age 9 and up playing the game. Heck, we had several adults in their 40’s and 50’s playing the game too! They were setting up challenges with one another and it was really fun to watch.  Matter of fact…this year the Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games was a big hit with our family. They couldn’t get enough of it!!! Share time boys…share time!

The game became available in North America in November 2019 and has a MSRP $59.99. You can find it available for purchase at many different retailers across the nation. The price point is really great since you get to play over 20 different events which keep things interesting and will appeal to many different members in the family. Well worth the money.
