    Is that a Tri-Force on the ping pong ball?

    Oh boy, is Sega finally waking? This games looks amazing, i´m totally sold. This could be the ultimate party game!

  3. HylianTom says...

    The orchestrated music did the trick for me. That, and Yoshi vs Tails ping-pong.

    If this is any good, I might have to plunk down some money for it. It’ll be good for when the nieces and nephews come to visit.. yeah.. that’s the ticket. As an added bonus, I could bore them with old man stories about how Mario and Sonic were once bitter rivals.. :P

    Looks exciting indeed!

    As much as I like Nintendo, but does anyone really think Mario and Luigi can outrun Sonic and Shadow? XDDD

  5. Vinny says...

    Wow that looks awesome!!!

    As much as I would love to buy it, if Dr. Robotnik is named “Eggman” I simply refuse as a matter of principle. His name’s not friggin “Eggman.” It’s Robotnik.

    ROBOTS. He makes ROBOTS.

    Oh, and it’s obvious Sonic isn’t even running. If he was running, his legs would be spinning in circles. He’s sorta powerwalking.

    He’s a good sport.

    I went through the trailer slowly and found: Espio, the little animals sonic saves, a blue Flicky, and what could possibly be a chicken from billy hatcher! They’re all pretty hard to find. Just keep pausing the trailer and you’ll see them.

    Best. Game. Ever.

  10. mrdctaylor says...

    What’s the release date on this?

  11. Erick Yockey says...

    Right in the beginning after the fireworks, you see what I assume are all 14 playable characters. However, there’s someone between Bowser and Yoshi over on Mario’s side that you never see again in the video.

    You think that’s Daisy or Waluigi? It looks a little more like Daisy.

  12. Joe says...

    Yeah, completely unrealistic if Sonic, Knuckles or Shadow loses any race…

    “Yeah, completely unrealistic if Sonic, Knuckles or Shadow loses any race…”

    Yeah when we are dealing with talking Hedgehogs and the Mushroom Kingdom, realism is called for. :)

  14. Blake says...

    Oh, just to let you know, this is not the Blake from this website…hmmm, I’ll have to use a different name next time.

  15. Wii Wii says...

    So they ” SAY” wii Sports 2 is not going to come out eh?

    Well, THIS game could be even BETTER !

    Go SEGA
    Go Nintendo

    I don’t get it guys… This trailer had no gameplay footage whatsoever, it was all pre-rendered CGI sequences! Where do you get that the game will be any good?

    Also, from the footage, I have to ask: why does this game need any video game characters at all? It looked to me like they were behaving like any regular human athletes!

    If, for example, Shadow can pull out his gun and shoot the other contenders if he starts to lose, THEN I’ll say this game has some reason to exist.

  17. gojiguy says...

    I hope more games have custom soundtracks…

  18. cmdg says...

    Hey i didnt know this was coming out for ds too

  19. Linkaro says...

    this..is going to be so cool…even for this young old schooler

  20. Nintendopython says...

    As a staunch anti-Sonic activist… I have to admit that that trailer was still rather impressive. It reminds me a lot of the opening for Mario Golf for the Gamecube.

  21. Eric says...

    Wow. I had my doubts, but that blew them away. This looks great!

    Glad to see Shadow made an appearance, too.
