Talk:Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games/Archive 2

message: Discontinuing work here to focus on a established Nintendo franchise, this article need the following to continue the path to reach FA:
*The question of "why the Olympic Games?" needs to be answered and added to the appropriate section.
*Update screenshot
# Gameplay - Check for errors. Add DS gameplay once reviews are out.
# Reception - Eventually the DS game will need its own paragraph here. Expand critical content section, impact of the first game to star Mario and Sonic, and maybe sales information when available. 
# Proofread, then GAN

message: Why are people so Anti-character about this page. Yes, there is some tiny little dot of a picture but thats it. Wait i know why it is, its because Mario game articles dont ussually have them. Well this game is made entirley by SEGA. Nintendo just gave permission to add Mario characters in it. So its a SONIC GAME with a few mario characters. Anyway, what is so bad about having a section telling about the characters. Not really an encylopedia if it dosn't give as much info as possible.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.236.153 (talk) 19:34, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Um, it's not a "Sonic" game. Half of the characters are from Sega and half from Nintendo. Yes Sega developed it, but under the supervision of Miyamot and Nintendo is publishing it in Japan. It's a shared game. TJ Spyke 23:25, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

text: I agree about a character list. See the previous discussion: Talk:Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games/Archive 1#Can we see a list of characters?. TJ Spyke 03:44, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Why?!

message: I added a gallery mode section in the article, but I'm not sure if it warrants its own section. I feel however, that trivia from the Olympics are found there and that there's music from both series should mentioned in the article. Magiciandude (talk) 00:33, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I don't know anything about the game myself, since I have never played it, but I believe that it might need a controls section.  Most other video game articles have one.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mynameisnotpj (talk • contribs) 12:30, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is not a game guide or a manual, so I don't think such information is allowed.  If it is in other articles it probably should be removed. Geoff B (talk) 15:41, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, only mention the controls if they're innovative, original, or unique. Being that these games are on the DS and Wii, this is likely to be the case.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 02:16, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Go to StrategyWiki. That's where you go in to check on the controls on this game. Johnnyauau2000 (talk) 11:23, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: I think that stuff only belongs to the individual character articles as it might be considered trivia or irrevelant information. But then again, I do remember about the "over 20 characters" were planned to be in, so I suppose we can use the characters as examples. Magiciandude (talk) 00:59, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
