I love how vibrant they made it look and how much more comforting with a less real colour palette. The first one was dullish, so this seriously showed off how Sega and Nintendo have such colourful casts.
Same it legit has a speacial place in my heart it's that nostalgic and another that's the same is vancove (sorry I can't spell it) the 2010 olyimpic winter game I belive it is those 2 will always have a speaicla place in my heart throughout my whole life
@@sophiluvvi I played this so much when I was so young these games are so nostalgic also the London Olympic games was the best one and also the Beijing I eblvie its called the winter Olympics games was also the best to
I love all of the games brings back so many memories and it’s so wholesome. I don’t have a favorite but it’s definitely between 2008 and 12. I usually played shadow, metal, Luigi and Amy.
@@aaronjones6299 the games also do kinda do that to, he survived The God of the sun solaris And the Writers of the game said that he could have done it by himself, they just needed a excuse to bring in silver.
This has to be one my favorite concepts for a spin-off series yet. The Olympics being an eventful union of countries around the world and this being an eventful union of two beloved game franchises.
Suk-Mike-Hok Tokyo was pretty good, but Rio looked awful in my opinion animation wise, they could've been polished up a bit more. I'm personally more of a fan of the rendered openings as I always found it makes game openings more special. The first three games openings were exciting through the enhanced personally and action through cgi.
Vancouver 2010 and London 2012 will always be my favorite. I probably have more nostalgia playing those games than any other video game I’ve ever played in general. I recently got Tokyo 2020 and although it’s a fun game it will never compare to the early 2010s. That was when the series peaked. ❤️🔥
All of them look amazing but the first two in particular are two of the most beautiful openings to a video game, graphics wise. You’d never guess that those graphics were from the Wii, which was largely underpowered compared to the PS3 and Xbox 360. Yet the intros are so stunning that they look like games released in the eighth generation of consoles (Nintendo Switch, PS5 and Xbox Series X)
I don’t understand why they didn’t keep doing them pre-rendered. I’m guessing their animation team was shortened and that’s why a lot of animation is reused in-game.
@@ShadowDante7 thats a bit far fetched... I actually really liked 2014 it was the first wii u game I ever bought and sometimes I still play it to this day
@@NGDKoren well I respect your opinion on it. It’s not a horrible game but it’s definitely my least favourite of the series, but that’s just me personally
Olympic winter games (2010) will always be the best for me, I was so happy to get it as a birthday present and the story mode for the DS was so interesting!
I loved playing the Olympic, Olympic winter games, and London 2012 Olympic games. When I first played I was excited because it was 2 of my favorite game franchises together in 1.
The Vancouver Winter 2010, London Summer 2012, and Rio Summer 2016: my favorites! I started with Vancouver so my nostalgia for that makes it one of my favorites!
I really wished that Nintendo SWITCH could have finally released Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games Paris 2024 this year at last especially with Olympics Paris games coming this Summer, it's like if they're discontined.
I hope Mario and Sonic come back again after the NFTS. If the community wants we can revive it. We have to show our displeasure by replacing it with NFTS so that they return with the winter ones
Mario and sonic at the 2012 Olympic Games was my favourite, but then it broke, that ruined my child hood it was my best game so I got stuck playing the 2010 version, but it was still good
The list of my favourite opening scenes. 1. Vancouver 2010 2. London 2012 3. Tokyo 2020 4. Rio 2016 5. Beijing 2008 6. Sochi 2014 I like the Vancouver 2010 opening scene since it has suspense almost in the end but still clutched to be a sudden end. I don't like the Sochi 2014 opening scene since the opening scene is only about 10 seconds long.
Somehow 2012 has: The best visuals The best music The best animation The best editing. Just an amazing intro, does anybody know the studio that made it or was it SEGA internally?
I'm guessing Sega made the 3D models and cutscenes. Plus, the in-game models are accurately based off of the CGI models seen in the cutscenes, only lower poly. You can edit the in-game models to look like the CG ones using Photoshop (textures) and various 3D modeling techniques found in any 3D modeling program.
@@SNLYoshi21 Yes I use Blender I know how it all works. That said, I don’t SEGA made that cutscene internally, it’s oddly high quality and was probably outsourced.
@@SNLYoshi21 Ok yeah I watched the credits for the game. The Opening is done by none other than Marza Animation Planet! Same guys behind the Unleashed intro and the Sonic movie! Go figure.
Sega has this animation studio called Marza animation planet which animated & edited all these openings. It is a Sega game made entirely by Sega after all.

I still have the Beijing one for Nintendo DS and I absolutely love it, my favorite game ever! Ican't even explain how much I adore it since this game and the concept is genius, but i also love the olympic games since i was a kid so... Priceless 🥺🤧
Bro the amount of nostalgia I have for the Vancouver 2010 intro is massive! It’s my favorite intro out of them all, with London 2012 being a good second place.
Considering this was the first set of games I played on the wii, I have a bias, especially for the Beijing and Vancouver ones so their intros hit me with the most nostalgia! It was honestly my favourite set of games. I also have the London 2012 games which I haven’t played much, but it was a treat nonetheless,
@@HobbsOW But it doesn't need to be exactly like the Olympics, I just wish they stop recycling the same game just like 2K and EA Sports, they should just be more creative with the series
They should just make every game like London 2012. Have an equal amount of dream and normal events, original minigames like in Mario Party and also change what original events are in each game. We don’t need the 100 and 4x100 in all of them. What about 800 or baseball or synchronized swimming?
@@snewp_e2139 And somehow those in-game models can be edited to look more like the pre-rendered cutscenes. I did that with my Yoshi model from the Sochi game, using mainly Photoshop and Blender.
I hope Mario & Sonic will meet again in the 2024 Olympic Games. If not, I WILL be disappointed at Nintendo and Sega. They have been fighting over which video game company is the best for far too long.
Ok, honestly, the way they did the transition from Olympic events to Dream events was truly amazing in London 2012, same with 2020, but 2012 did better with the transition.
Ranking intros: 1: Winter games 2: Olympic Games 3: London 2012 Olympic Games 4: Rio 2016 Olympic Games 5: Tokyo 2020 Olympic games 6: Sochi 2014 Winter games
The Best Ones Were Mario And Sonic At The Olympic Games And Mario And Sonic At The Winter Olympic Games. Best nostalgic feelings were those two. I remember being young playing these games it brought so much good memories.
Uploaded on the 1 year anniversary of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Good luck Mario and Sonic for getting fired on the Olympics, and getting your new jobs for Smash!
