That’s right — Sega and Nintendo have announced that Mario and Sonic will be co-starring in the first crossover game between the two companies. And it’s not a platformer; nope, according to IGN, Mario and Sonic will be meeting in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, an action-sports title for Wii and Nintendo DS, based on the events to be held at the 2008 Olympics. Weird, but kinda cool and potentially crazy fun.

Spread the word!
