Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games

A few new screenshots from Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games were added to the Rio 2016 blog before being pulled just a few moments later. You can check them out below.

Apparently, there were a few other screenshots on the blog as well. They showed Sonic competing in Archery, -Zazz (against Yoshi) preparing to serve in Table Tennis, Rugby 7s with 3 Marios, 2 Sonics, Diddy Kong, Boom Booms and Egg Pawns, and Rosalina, Daisy, Peach and a female Mii competing in Synchronize Swimming.

With the initial footage we’ve seen of Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, we have a pretty good idea about some of the new roster additions. Characters like Nabbit and Diddy Kong were shown, for example. The Nintendo Direct footage also gave a brief look at Zazz from Sonic Lost World (see the image above), along with Rouge the Bat and Jet the Hawk.

Thanks to Anthony for the tip.

SEGA is developing a new entry in the Mario & Sonic series. As was announced during today’s Nintendo Direct, Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games is heading to both Wii U and 3DS.
