Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games is a 2011 crossover sports video game developed and published by Sega for the Wii. A Nintendo 3DS version was released the following year. It was released by Nintendo in Japan and South Korea and by Sega elsewhere. The third installment in the Mario & Sonic series, it is the official video game of the 2012 Summer Olympics and is licensed by the International Olympic Committee through exclusive licensee International Sports Multimedia. The game is the only Wii title to come in a yellow keep case. The game on the Wii and 3DS comprises a collection of numerous events based on the Olympic Games. Players assume the role of a Mario or Sonic character while competing against the others in Olympic events. Mario & Sonic received mostly mixed reviews from critics upon release, with many criticising its gameplay as underwhelming. It proved to be commercially successful and was followed by a fourth game in the series, Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games, which was based on the 2014 Winter Olympics and released in November 2013 for the Wii U.
