Mario & Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games confirmed?!


Now we just need the official announcement!!


From CVG:
Sega has yet to officially confirm the title exists but that hasn't stopped 2010's director of licensing, Dennis Kim. He said that while he doesn't know exactly which sports the pair of console mascots will be facing off in, he hopes they'll bring in as much cash as the first game.

"Last year, 2008, they had a very successful game using Mario and Sonic at the Beijing Games, as well as a multi-sport simulation type of game," Kim told The Province.

"That's what's being discussed and planned for Vancouver. We are feeling optimistic about sales because of the Beijing experience." Kim said the Mario and Sonic game was "a top 10 game" during the Beijing Olympics.

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games has sold more than nine million copies. Sega is also planning an obligatory "realistic" 2010 simulation game alongside the Wii party effort, says Kim.
