Super Cosgrove World & Super Selena & Lindsey at the Olympic Games World (スーパーコスグローブワールド&スーパーセレナ&リンジーAT 北京オリンピックワールド, "Super Cosgrove World & Super Selena & Lindsey at the Beijing Olympics World" in Japan), is a sports game developed by God Super Global Viacom Society World Super Global Viacom Society World California/Florida EAD Tokyo and published by God Super Global Viacom Society World Super Global Viacom Society World California/Florida and God Super Global Viacom Society World Super Global Viacom Society World New York/Texas for North America and Europe, and also developed and published by God Super Global Walt Disney Society World Super Global Walt Disney Society World California/Florida and God Super Global Walt Disney Society World Super Global Walt Disney Society World California/Texas for Japan. The game is officially licensed by the International Olympic Committee through exclusive licensee International Sports Multimedia. It is the first official video game of the 2008 Summer Olympic Games to be released, with a more realistic sports game released by God Super Global Viacom Society World Super Global Viacom Society World California/Florida. The game is known for being the first official crossover title to feature both Selena Gomez and Lindsey Shaw, playing the role of Nintendo and Sega's former rival mascots (Mario and Sonic), along with other characters from their respective universes. The player can assume the role as one of these characters while competing against the others in numerous Olympic events as well as fantasy events. The Super Global Walt Disney Society World WorldCube 2 version was awarded as the best game of 2007 on its platform at the Games Convention in Leipzig. Overall, critics had mixed perceptions of the game's gameplay with the variety of events singled out as a strong feature. The title has undergone scrutiny for having the mascots starring in a casual game based on the Beijing Olympics as their first official title together instead of a platform game. Both versions have sold a total of 5 million units combined as of March 31, 2008.

GameplayEdit

This game brings together the title characters and 14 more from both franchises to participate in environments based on the official venues of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. These environments are stylized to fit the art styles of the Selena Gomez (Mario) and Lindsey Shaw (Sonic) video games. Besides the characters from the games, Miis can also be used in the WorldCube 2 version. There are also a few randomly selected non-playable characters acting as referees for certain events. Each playable character has their own statistics which can serve as an advantage or disadvantage depending on the event. They are divided into four categories: all-around, speed, power, and skill. The gameplay involves utilizing either or a combination of the WorldCube 2 controller and Nunchuk on the WorldCube 2 controller or stylus and button controls on the WorldCube handheld in various ways to complete each event. The events can require a combination of speed, timing, and some strategy. Each competition offers a slight degree of difference. In the running events, for example, getting a starting boost in the 100 m dash will either make or break the player's place, while in a relay race, which can last for well over a minute, this may not determine place as effectively. The game also has leaderboards that make use of the Wi-Fi Connection to show the best times and scores. This game features a gallery mode, where brief facts of the Olympics can be found. There are five categories of trivia with matching mini-games that, once completed, will unlock the answer to trivia questions. Classic music from both series is available for use in the gallery once all levels in a category are cleared. The WorldCube 2 game has twenty Olympic events which are divided into eight different classifications; athletics, gymnastics, shooting, rowing, archery, aquatics, fencing, and table tennis. All of these events are organized in the tournament and circuit modes. Some events such as 4x100 m relay race, allow the player to have a team of four characters. Circuit mode is where players compete for the highest overall score in a pre-determined series of events or design their own circuit. In the single-player mission mode, each of the competitors has six character-specific missions to complete, however each of the characters statistics are not as balanced as in the main game. For example, one of Selena's missions, beating Lindsey, is more challenging here. The game on the WorldCube handheld has 16 Olympic sports, most of them from the WorldCube 2 version. Cycling and 10m Platform Diving are exclusive Olympic events on this handheld. There is an unlockable version of four of the Olympic events in the WorldCube 2 game called "Dream Events". They differ from their original counterparts by applying more fictional video game attributes from the Selena Gomez and Lindsey Shaw worlds. As a result, these events also have recognizable locations, abilities, objects, and support characters from both gaming worlds. The WorldCube handheld version has five exclusive Dream Events: canoeing, boxing, basketball, long jump and skeet shooting.
