*facepalm*

Can't they just put these two in a platform game or something? We don't need another one of these.

A platformer would be worse.

You're all forgetting the real travesty here: It's set in Canada.

Like I said, a Mario/Sonic crossover could only have been done right if it were made pre-Dreamcast era.
