Not a bad game! I got it for less than $35 and for that price, it is a steal! A little cringy at times but the minigames are somewhat fun and the story mode is interesting.

Back at E3 2019, I said that Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 had the potential of becoming the Wii Sports that the Switch so desperately needs. I still stand by that statement. It’s a collection of simple, family-friendly minigames that are easy and quick to learn, with some of them being a lot more polished than I could have ever expected.
Overall, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is an enjoyable experience that’s jammed-packed with Olympic-sized fun. With so many events and modes to choose from, all presented in Nintendo’s signature welcoming style, there’s something for everyone here. Just don’t expect a deep and engrossing experience; while there are nice extra touches like Story Mode and an added retro element, this is mostly a game meant for casual, bite-sized fun on the go.
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 is not a good minigame collection. While the minigames here aren't absolutely atrocious, none of them are particularly good or outstanding. Disappointing motion controls and a boring minigame selection really hamstring this crossover, and when games like Super Mario Party are available, I just can't bring myself to recommend it at all.
