So Nintendo and Sega have once again brought us the fun opportunity to play as characters from the Mario and Sonic universes to compete in a series of events similar to what Olympian competitors will face, and a selection of Dream Events that go beyond what is available in reality."
Stan at GameSpew: There’s so many Mario sports games out there, but we’ve narrowed them down to the top 10. The Premier League standard of Mario sports games, if you will.

Not sure which will best capture the spirit of the Games? Check out our list for the closure you need.
Don’t like sports? There’s a whole segment of games you can immediately write off, as far as you’re concerned. Or can you?

Brad Woodling and Graham Russell are here to help with a list of games you should check out even if they have sports in them, because you’re missing out on a lot of fun.
