Mario & Sonic Rugby 7s game on it's way! This looks great. Hopefully it plays like Jonah Lomu Rugby 1997 - the only good rugby game so far

Oh.
My.
God.


How much is a Wii U these days? :lol:

you realise that it is not a whole game, it is just a feature in the Rio Olympics Mario and Sonic Game!!!!

And yet somehow it will still comfortably best the impending Rugby World Cup game.

Time to look for a Wii U.

I remember playing the previous M&S Olympic Games on a mates wii u was fun.

I know I am just wondering how the wii u controls for rugby 7s would work

Wii U has a proper controller, so no different to anyother console

Aye, none of us have any idea how the long established franchises of olympics games works :huh:

 

[ScottishCannon]

yea I am wondering about using the wii remote and all the hand gestures and stuff

 

[Kiwiwomble]

....i have an original Wii...anyone think it will get released on that too!?!?!....didn't think so

Has there ever been a Rugby 7s game before this? We have to overlook that it's popular video game characters and not real life rugby players but at least it's something. I actually have a wii u and a 3ds wonder which I should get because my rugby loving/soccer putting up with self has been waiting for something like this.

 

[dudeabides]

Double post sorry

I was watching some gameplay off it and its looks crazy but awesome at the same time.

Of course I only have a 3DS (and a Wii, on top of lots of other consoles and handhelds), bugger. Previous versions of Mario & Sonic were a lot of fun, so this should be great.

This looks great. Looks a bit similar to Rugby Challenge actually. Rugby Challenge is pretty much like sevens anyway idk why there hasn't been a 7's game before. Seems like it would be easier and more fun to play than a 15's game. Will there be any other types of Olympic console games? Cause there could be a version of this with real players
