The editors didn't like
No online multiplayer mode. Repetitive controls. Not enough Wii Balance Board use. Not compatible with Wii MotionPlus.
Does little to innovate from first title
Falls behind other winterthemed games in terms of depth
Too many events are played the same way

Timing is still an issue with some events
No multiplayer when using the Balance Board
Lacks the variety of the original Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Must defeat rival challenges in Festival Mode to continue
Can’t play as rivals

Addictive skill-based challenges, fun multiplayer, plenty of events to try your hand at
Some events are hit-and-miss, story mode is naff
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is a compelling purchase for party game and curling fans alike. If it’s a quick bout of fun you’re after, it’s hard to go wrong. ...

Getting to the Dream events is a dreary process. You’ll have to play through the regular sports, all of which seem to involve tilting, shaking and nothing more, have some boss races in single player which fail to match the decade-old Diddy Kong Raci...
Mario & Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games doesn’t push the Wii to the limits, but it’s easy enough on the eye and the flashes of Mario Kart are a nice touch. With four people crammed into the living room, it’ll pass away a wet afternoon...
Abstract: Last year we saw a gaming event that many thought would never happen, a pairing of once bitter rivals that was enough to give fanboys a wet dream. Yes, the gaming legends Mario and Sonic finally made it into a game together, a sporting game centred aro...
Abstract: Following the huge commercial success of Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games, which was released to coincide with the Beijing Olympics in 2008, inevitably comes the sequel to tie-in with the upcoming Winter Olympics in Vancouver that kicks off early ne...
von Lars Hilbig Mario & Sonic bei den Olympischen Winterspielen ist genau das, was es sein möchte. Eine leichte und eingängige Sammlung von knapp 30 Minispielen angelehnt an die Winterspiele. Natürlich könnten Skiabfahrt, Eiskunstlauf oder Skeleton m...
Ergänzung der Traumdisziplinen, Große Auswahl an Wettkämpfen, Tolle Atmosphäre, Möglichkeit mit bis zu 4 Spielern anzutreten, Einfache und schnell erlernbare Steuerung, Spannende Einzelund Teamdisziplinen, Einsatz des Balance Boards,
Mehr als nerviger Menüsprecher, Einige Sportarten zu leicht, Ab und an Eingabeverzögerungen,
