I am not into the Olympic Games series, this is the only one I have ever played and I think it is cool to play some of the games. I just felt unfulfilled in finishing everything there was to do and I feel like it was too easy. It's not to say that it is horrible to play, because some of the events are fun to replay. The game just didn't convince me to stay with the series and I never got the London Olympics game that came out later.
I only wanted this game because it had fencing.
I literally broke my DS touch screen because the tip of the stylus fell off and I wanted to still win the events
I played the hell out of the DS version. The arcade gallery was such a challenge for me and I had more fun playing this version than I did the wii version thanks to the control scheme on the DS. It felt more like a minigame than the wii version.
If you haven't destroyed your touchpad playing this game what were you doing?
Childhood classic, but it's not that great

The handheld counterpart to the first Mario & Sonic Olympic Games on Wii. This is a fairly simple affair, but also much more enjoyable at the same time.
The touch screen is used a lot in this game, running for example is done by rubbing across the screen, tapping to jump. Overall, the controls for the simpler games work quite well (although fencing again just seems like a complete mess, I don’t think they can get fencing right in these games). Some events, however, use the touch screen and d-pad or buttons. For me, these are a massive pain as I’m left handed, but I’m used to the right-handed way of playing games, so I need the stylus in my left hand but also feel like I need to use my left hand to turn via the D-Pad.
For singleplayer, you progress through 15 cups of 4 or 5 events. You can spend a coin on one of the events to double your score, but you only get one coin. This means that even if there are a couple of events that you can’t perform well at (Pole vault and Triple Jump for me), you can make up for it by doubling your score on an event you do well at. I managed to make it through them all without too much hassle.
Compared to the Wii version, the DS version of the original Mario & Sonic was actually quite enjoyable.

Who gives a shit

Such an underwhelming first crossover for Mario and Sonic. The minigames kind of make use of the DS' unique capabilities, but it ends up being a meaningless title with almost no depth in any of the featured sports.
I played this a lot when I was a kid, but honestly, it’s just a mediocre mini game compilation to take advantage of the DS gimmicks and nothing else
The gliding game is rly fun
I had a lot of fun with this version back in the day. I honestly prefer it over the Wii version.
no1 freestyle swimmer ever
ce jeu a du me bousiller le bout d'au moins 2 stylets
the swimming minigame was so awful
olympic sonic mario
Je crois c'était ok
Translating a sports mini-game collection on the Wii into a touch-screen, Cooking Mama-esque, mini-game collection on the DS was certainly... a choice.
