Why Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Is Conceptually Impossible 

Being stuck on a ski lift after hours is literally the plot of Frozen, NOT the disney movie but the 2010 horror movie with the same name that's really bad cause it's just people stuck on a ski lift

People who hate each other competing in sports and breaking all the rules while those in charge turn a blind eye is actually pretty accurate to the real Olympic games

Bowser: literally conquers the universe in mario galaxy Eggman: casually summons time demons Olympics: 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

This channel mesmerizes me. I've never seen such high effort for such silly research, such compellingly crude visuals, it's fantastic

I've genuinely always wondered why sonic ran at a normal pace during the Olympic games and was disappointed when they never answered.

Anyone noticed that in Tokyo 2020, instead of Bowser and Eggman trying to destroy or take over the Olympics, they wanted to trap Mario and Sonic until they die in that videogame machine? Its a darker but dumber plan, because just getting rid of Mario and Sonic, doesn't mean they are free to do any terrorist attacks, because Luigi, Tails and their friends wouldn't sit there and do nothing.

fun fact: donkey kong already has experience on boxing, good example is on punch out wii were he is literally visible in the background, staring at each fight menacingly until he actually comes up to the ring

6:48 Vector is actually Christian according to Knuckles’ Chaotix, so he should drop the dope and pick up the hope

3:24 To be somewhat fair, in some of the Sonic games, Eggman can still do seemingly legitimate events without intervention like publicly arranging a hoverboard racing tournament with the entrance fee being the Chaos Emeralds (aka publicly-known mystically stones with godly powers) and no one bats an eye. Then again, the TailsTube videos explained that the reason why they weren't any government intervention during Sonic Forces, was because Eggman was capable of wiping them out immediately in just a short time.

London 2012 was the peak of the franchise imo. All the regular events were very well made and fun, the dream events were the most creative and fun they’ve ever been, and the presentation was top notch. Then it all went downhill from there. Sochi 2014 was really bad, Rio 2016 was mediocre, and Tokyo 2020 was only just pretty decent. (I know this isn’t what the video is about but still)

If the pandemic didn't happen, we would've seen Toadette in the real life Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games

4:54 Luigi probably can’t play golf because of how dangerous and menacing he sounded in his voice lines for Mario Golf.

i mean cream have experienced worse stuff than shooting a blank, like being kidnapped and barely getting hit by a blue razor sharp ball at highspeeds

Shout outs to Eggman 2 for not having a slur in his name.

“But it’s like a really tasty phone book”

Eggman is very rich and Bowser is the sovreign of a kingdom, of COURSE they are gonna be able to compete. They LOBBY.

i think its personally impossible because ive never seen mario and sonic at the real life olympics, let someone dressed in a mario mascot suit play with everyone else it’ll be really funny

This dude has my EXACT sense of humor!!! The camera cut at the end, idk why but it gets me every time!!!

NGL, I kinda wish that we got like a 3d platformer instead of a olympic themed minigame colection. It's like Nintendo and Sega really didn't want to do anything that felt risky to them and so they desided to play it super duper safe.

I loved playing Dream snowboarding on the DS it was so funny knocking other characters to the floor with items and watch them face plant

4:46 agreed, luigi should be allowed to golf

Never a dull day when Choopo uploads.

“Conceptually impossible” We’re taking about a fast hedgehog and a plumber who battles a giant dragon turtle

i will always be grateful for the algorithm showing me the papas lore video, i completely fell in love with your channel

This is the quality Choopo content I subscribed for.

5:06 - "But these guys break almost every rule." This is when I suddenly started laughing and realizing that I'm listening to someone complaining about how cartoon/video game character aren't following the dress code of a real life event. Ahh... (It's great!)

I never actually thought about this aside from the dream events 💀

Thanks a lot, caiman. I was just wondering why I never saw Luigi at the actual Olympics!

loved just staring at the broken strap on the ski/snowboard and wondering if anything would happen about it.

The 2010 Olympics game was my very 1st Sonic game.

5:23 my eyes! Is that real?!

I tried watching this while doing homework and got nothing done 'cause the video had all my attention. It's really cool to hear and learn about the logistics of video game characters competing.

The most under rated channel on this platform without an absolute doubt

This content reminds me of Sam O Nella.

Sonic's speed comes largely, but not exclusively, from wearing magical shoes. Changing shoes can slow him down considerably, and he's sportsmanlike enough that he'd willingly do so for a competition (just like how he drives cars in several racing games despite running faster and having a better turn radius than any available car).

im not lying when i say this but this is better than game theory

i choose NOT to believe the olympic games have been going on for over 15 years. i think it's only been 14

This is unrelated but how come that with Mario Crossovers the funny Rayman Rabbits get their funny tactical RPG adventure and a sequel while Sonic only gets Olympics

5:57 he got knocked TF out...

This is what I needed today.

The Olympics games going from the DS version having everyone playable in all events to only a limited pool of characters being playable for the 3ds ones will always hurt me.

Considering Nazi Germany once competed in the Olympics, Eggman and Bowser competing isn't too strange really. Sticks competed in the Rio Olympics, I wonder if she made conspiracy theories about how how the Olympics are run. Like just imagine her trying to wrap her head around some of the same ideas that are addressed here.

I wish there was a different type of Sonic & Mario cross-over game thing, but idk how it would be done and not be generic because you could make it a fighting game like Smash, but with a focus on both series instead of Nintendo owned series, maybe an rpg, maybe something like sonic generations but instead of dealing with time, it deals with universes and dimensions. I mean, you could also do something akin to Mario bros Z but with differentplot and characters so that it includes more sonic characters (mainly because I dont like the axom Rangers), but idk 🤷🏽‍♂️

Sega: Wait, it's conceptually impossible? I never realized that. *casually unreleases 6 video games*

4:07 say the name

Another choopo banger

Idc what nerds say, Mario and Sonic 2010 Vancouver and 2012 London were amazing

Fun analysis video! Thanks for uploading!

Eggman ribbon dancing is just what I needed today.

*Reads title* So you're telling me a magical plumber that can grow into a giant by eating mushrooms competing against a giant blue sentient hedgehog that can run faster than sound can't happen in real life!!!!

#whycantluigigogolfing

I’d like to see the politicians who attend the Olympics and their opinions on the chubby Italian man and giant anthropomorphic hedgehog and their friends attending.

They really found a way to do crossover with the Raving Rabbits work before they did with Sonic

I would like that in a future installment (if they wanted to make a new one), they should remove that exclusive characters in a single Olympic discipline and that they are playable in all of them, like Rosalina who in Rio 2016 could only be used in Gymnastics (I would have loved to see it in the Box or all the disciplines of that game), and in Tokyo 2020 it can only be used in Surfing, and also that it has a more elaborate Adventure or Story Mode and that all of them could be used the characters in that mode

you got an interesting format, it’s like all the throwaway jokes that the comedy video essay people make (sam o nella, most video game reviewers) but without any of the essay, it was captivating to say the least, good job man

“Eggman 2” I see what you did there 😏

YAY new video!!!

Holy fuck the nostalgia. I loved these games as a kid. Hockey was the most fun winter game!

This video was hilarious. Lots of fun observations and comments that are relevant to my own likes! Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games is super funny because it's like one of the only Mario Spin-offs that wouldn't make sense in actual Mario canon. Like Mario sports, party, RPGs, and Kart games all co-exist and reference each other. They're all canon. But then you've got the Olympics and it's like... there are too many questions. There are no references outside of the series. Where are the normal earth humans spectating and competing? Is this a post-apocolyptic Earth? How does Mario know Sonic?? Also Sonic just straight up has his own solo Olympic Games series, which would mean the Olympics happen TWICE in Sonic's universe. Regarding Bowser Jr's age, he's likely 2-4. He's classified as a baby character, and given his resemblance to Baby Bowser in the Yoshi games, he can't be that old. Which also would make it funny how he has appeared in 5 separate Olympic games, over the course of a decade without aging.

You killed On The Why Can't Luigi Go Golfing Part 😂

i love this video. I love taking silly thinfs seriously for the sake of the joke. May you have a good skiiboarding trip.

Can't wait for that bricks video!

1:35 Sonic survive contact with lava too and breathing in space.

7:19 they've already answered it before. He want to give everyone a fair (ish) shot.

it's funny to think a hedgehog that has the power to rewarp reality and be fast enough to outrun the very concept of infitnity and death competing with a plumber who's able to survive a universal threat in a Olympic games

nah nah, you see, in the olympics they just tend to play softer because its all fun and games, smash bros is when shit gets real.

5:11 Actually I see olympic athletes still wear earrings or necklaces to most events, except for maybe swimming cause your earrings will get lost in the water

i also take the ski lift without the safety restraint, what a coincidence

I really wished that Nintendo SWITCH could have finally announced the released of Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games Paris 2024 this year at last especially with Olympics Paris games coming this Summer but it sound like if they're discontinued for unknown reason.

I am so happy the algorithm blessed me with this video. Your sense of humor has gotten more laughs out of me since Dunkey! Can't wait to see more stuff from you 🫡

this guys goes hard

Bowser jr has just been confirmed to be 13, much older than expected

the fact that you call him eggman 2 kills me everytime

3:10 Sooo... we're just going to glance over the fact bowser conquered an entire galaxy and took their life force (grand stars) leaving most planets to die. turning the toads into bricks in the original Super Mario Brothers. (Which I don't need to explain how that's bad) *LITERALLY STEALING SHOOTING STARS* in mario party 9 so nobody can wish anymore (okay that last one seems pretty tamed than the other ones) but my point is nobody seems to talk about what Bowser has done when comparing him to eggman. which kinda gets annoying, it's like I'm the only one that knows.

Having Bowser and Eggman busy with beating their own records, especially if those records are set by their enemies (they have great egos), is key to world peace

It's conceptually impossible as realistically sonic should win every speed sport and luigi should win every jumping sport...which would make the game super boring and not fun nor a competition anymore

>"there is no age limit in the olympic games! anyone can compete!" >slowly rotates entire body on the y axis toward the concept of the chinese olympic acrobatics team debacle that inexplicably lasted from 2008-2016

I understand why you call him eggman 2 , it scares me to say it to

watching someone overanalyze a video game by judging it with the logic of real life is beautiful. I do it too

I rather just ask how the Mii’s are able to be on the same level as the cast, if everything said is true

Great video. Just subbed. Thank you for bringing these Olympics regulation violations to attention

good vdieo

not even 10 seconds into the video and i’m dying

Its fun how I uploaded almost 300 video's about the series with more than 100 world records. The series are even in my name. Crazy!

Don't think I don't hear that Sonic Riders music in the background

That's a good question, I hope you ask Sonic again next year

What also make it impossible is the fact it's a "Nintendo" game so getting it on Xbox or PlayStation is mostly non-existent

this channel man.... cant wait to see what you cover in the future

I love your channel, im glad the algorithm just rolled it out to me. You're sam o'nella applied to videogames. why didnt anyone think of that

Eggman 2 can only do some events due to his name, and nobody wants to say it, and be cancelled.

Luigi can't go golfing anymore because he said f*ck in mario golf, Mario and Sonic in fear of losing sponsors decided to ban Luigi from playing golf this time around.

talk about the problem with calendars

3:20 Ya this is basically the ROC

Paris 2024, I feel as if Mario and Sonic would be banned from the Olympics because of their abilities

Ok but real talk... I would kill to see them add arena kayaking battles with Mario Kart items to the real Olympic Games. Also Snowball Tanks. Those need to be real.

Youre orginal in the style of sam onella. Love ur content. Keep it up!

this game series is totally a brand-safe Super Mario Bros Z

5:42. Towelweight, it took me a second but if you know, you know. And it's freaking funny it was included.

this is the best channel on youtube

I like to imagine these kinds of games take place in some alt universe where everything is more marketable like those chibi youtube webseries
