IOC axed Mario and Sonic series to sell NFTs - Also sports games I guess Anonymous 07/31/2024 (Wed) 20:55:26 Id: 72bb7a No. 996104

https://archive.is/XqoCQ Series was only good for Peach/Daisy/Rosalina in leotard and swimsuit, bu this is a really shitty way for almost any series to die just like it was for Expeditions. The IOC is completely incapable of not getting own goals. What are your favorite sports game career modes? Are there any you think do something interesting beyond just a gallery of increasingly difficult opponents? I really liked the overworld of the GBC/GBA Mario Golf with stuff to find and golf based challenges to complete. The Mario Tennis games are similar, but the entire overworld is a single tennis club+a brief trip to a tournament venue with only one thing to find so it's not nearly as fun to explorer. THUG, of course, remains a brilliant execution of what it is and it's a shame that the series could never quite follow up on (THUG2 is series of totally whacky random events the writer thought was amusing, THAW had a mediocre story killed by forcing you to progress the story to do basic stuff).

tl;dr: >Olympics Committee (IOC) walked away from Nintendo and Sega's Mario & Sonic at the Olympics series for deals with new partners, NFTs and esports. >Decision to end the series was IOC's, which didn't renew its deal with Nintendo and Sega >Lee Cocker, who worked on the series: "Basically the IOC wanted to look at other partners to get more money." >Join the Olympics in Paris 2024 with nWay's NFT Digital Pin collection, the game's website explains. >Claim a pin showcasing the Paris 2024 mascot.

Given the shitshow that's been surrounding the Olympics this year - it's probably best for their brands if they sit this one out anyhow.

So Sega and Nintendo refused to ruin Mario & Sonic with NFTs and the Olympics Committee said, "Fuck you guys, we want money, we're doing NFTs," dropped Sega and Nintendo, and are doing their own thing with NFTs.

>>996306 They've already been neutering the Sonic series by putting black voids under skirts. Wouldn't surprise me if they'd give them those bodysuits the Olympics adopted and nerf the jiggle, had they renewed their contract.

As Shigeru Nintendo, head ninja to Iwata, I drew it up with George W. Bush. We told them, "GET HIM!" If only Acts of Congress hadn't made the American school curriculum brainwash me with Iwataism, you would've gotten away!

>>996104 Not sure how much profit they made from these games exactly, but what made the IOC think that ending a deal with two big video game companies and adopting NFTs would bring in more money? The Mario and Sonic series appeals to a wide audience, and many might just buy it as a reflex or just to have it. NFTs have a bad reputation and only a small niche group of adults are interested in them. Even if sales end up mediocre, it's a safer investment to make a video game.

I know it's like 15 years later, but I'm still mad that they finally did a Mario and Sonic crossover, and it was just a minigame collection. We could have got a platformer, but no. I suppose a racing game would be pointless if it was just a Mario Kart clone, but a more non-conventional racing game, like Sonic Riders or something? That could have been cool. Anything other than a minigame collection. Do any of these games at least have story modes, so they can at least be worth it for autism's sake? I mean I wanna see Sonic and Mario team up to fight Bowser and Eggman, but I assume since it's the Olympics that won't happen. Though there were some tie-in comics that had light stories, but since they were only licensed by Sega and not Nintendo, they only have Sonic characters, defeating the whole crossover aspect that makes it fun.
