MARIO & SONIC AT THE OLYMPIC GAMES TOKYO 2020

This is a collection of sports-themed games in which players compete with Mario, Sonic, and their friends at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. Players engage in a variety of conventional sporting events (e.g., canoe, equestrian, table tennis) as well as cartoony mini-games. In some combat sporting events (e.g., karate, fencing, boxing), players punch, kick, and lunge at opponents to score points and/or knock them down; the action is highlighted by punching sounds, colorful impact indicators, and cries of pain. A handful of mini-games involve brawling/beating up a set number of characters; piloting a plane to shoot down waves of enemy ships; shooting enemy robots with bows from a third-person perspective.
