Former SEGA producer says Nintendo wanted art for Mario & Sonic Olympic Games changed as Sonic’s foot was in-front of Mario’s

One of the more bizarre pieces of news circulating today is that Nintendo was not happy with the original artwork for Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. The reason? Well, Sonic’s foot was originally placed in front of Mario’s, which Nintendo wasn’t happy about, as it would have given Sonic an advantage in the fictional race. The news comes from a new interview with former SEGA of Japan Producer, Ryoichi Hasegawa.

      1. Sonic fans live in their parents basement 🤭

        Sonic is a washed-up franchise for creepy man-children, Mario has alway been superior.
        Welcome to the real world. 🤭

        1. Sega: Can my mascot crossover with yours?
          Nintendo: Whatever.
          Sega: Can my mascot look like he’s better than yours?
          Nintendo: Know your limits.

        2. Are you one is that why you’re here? Don’t project here bro worry about your insecurities elsewhere then again probably some 40 year old lady just miserable and insecure and wasted her wages on Hasan Piker hoping he would notice her.

  1. Nintendo is lame AF honestly. Their best times were SNES and N64, and if it wasn’t for Rare the N64 would’ve flopped HARD.. 8 years for MKW.. Lmao..

    At least Sonic series has hot furry girls. 🤤

    1. Sonic furries belong in jail. 😊

      Bro just self-reported that he’s a creepy furry incel lmaooo.
      Sonic fans really need to be put on a list and kept away from children.

      1. The rage in this post is delicious. Imagine been mad at someone for having a crush on some character. Go be mad at women who have AI boyfriends.Lmao

    2. The Sonic universe might also be classified as “hot chick heaven” because there’s such a mess of very beautiful and tough women that it will make you love the franchise even more!

  2. Why make this. Should have done what Spyro and Crash did in the 2000’s send Mario to the Sonic world and Sonic to Mario’s and crossover games like a proper big crossover and Mario in Sonic Riders

  3. The creator of Persona and Megami Tensei founder of Atlus Kouji Okada is making a new game with Idea Factory and Compile Heart with his new studio Gaia. Reveal January 29th.

  4. The very idea of Mario and Sonic competing in an Olympic sprint makes absolutely no sense… It’s SEGA who basically conceded their entire character’s concept just to make a game with Mario.

    Nintendo waving them dollars be like: “Genesis does WHAT now?! XD”
