Mario & Sonic - Did You Know Gaming? Feat. Remix of WeeklyTubeShow

With the reveal of Super Mario Odyssey and Sonic Mania for the Switch, Did You Know Gaming takes a look at when these two frachises came together: Mario & Sonic! Mario & Sonic is a set of sports games featuring characters from Nintendo's Super Mario series and Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog series. These games were the first time Mario and Sonic ever appeared together in a game, and were followed quickly by Sonic's inclusion in Super Smash Bros Brawl. Through our analysis of the series' gameplay, as well as its beta builds and cut content, we reveal the facts, history, and easter eggs of Mario & Sonic.

i just love the fact sonic wears a life vest in the swimming events.

In the early 1990s, if you said Mario and Sonic should have a crossover where they compete in the Olympic games, you'd be called crazy.

"I hate that damn hedgehog! But I'm all about empowering women!" - Dr. Eggman

"He electrocuted himself. Fortunately he was mostly unharmed." The word electrocuted means to have died from electric shock.

Mario = Platformer
Sonic = Platformer

...Nintendo: "Eh, let's do sports!"

[carthius]

"Cream the Rabbit" ...that fucking name will always make me giggle like im 5 years old

[SpookySkellyGurl]

"Did you know Nintendo and Sega used to be rivals?"

Is this what getting old feels like?

[MarioSonic]

Just work with each other to make a Mario and Sonic RPG. It's not that hard lol.

EDIT: For those who keep bringing up Dark Brotherhood, you should realize that there are other companies that can do this better than Bioware. *cough* Alphadream *cough*

[Untouchaable]

They should make a real Mario & Sonic game.

I know it's a joke and all but Real Talk:
If someone told you that they got a Mario game because he's so sexy, what your reaction be?

[zeipheil]

"Mario has sex appeal"

I mean, have you SEEN that nose?

[benc]

"If it was a Sonic world, and we had Mario trying to run around collecting rings, it wouldn't be right. A new world that accommodated both characters would need to be made for a collaboration to work"

*cut to footage of Metal Sonic riding a bicycle*

[TigerKirby]

"...and he can get more women than Sonic."
*SHOTS FIRED. SHOTS FIRED.*

[Trakker]

Or, Mario comes before Sonic in the title because 99% of the time names on things are listed alphabetically =P

[Moonbeam]

Sonic did get a girl once back in 2006, but nobody liked it.

[painters]

5:09 Don't mind me just taking your Pokemon plushes

[Choatemister]

"Mario running around in a sonic world collecting rings." Super Mario Odyssey?

Makes sense Dr Eggman would be a feminist. They usually are villains, after all.

One of my favorite underrated game series. The gameplay is good, but the soundtrack is incredible.
