Mario & Sonic DS hits store shelves in North America
Posted by Chris. Filed under Chris, News, Nintendo DS.

Sega has announced today that Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games for the DS has shipped to stores across North America. The game features 16 total playable characters, eight from each universe with 16 official challenges.
However, if you already own the Wii version, Sega made sure to include a few new experiences to entice you to purchase the DS version, as well. The game will feature two new challenges not included in the Wii version - the 10m Platform (diving) and Pursuit (cycling), and five new Dream events - Dream Canoe, Dream Boxing, Dream Basketball, Dream Long Jump and Dream Shooting.
Nintendo Power has the first review and gave it a 7.5, which isn’t bad at all. They said, “It doesn’t quite live up to the historic pairing of gaming’s two biggest icons, but then again, not much could.” Fair enough, but be on the lookout for Sega Nerd’s review in the coming week.
