Some reviews:

It’s nice to see the MARIO and Sonic Olympic Series back again. This game is a lot of fun and a lot of stores have seemingly dropped the retail price from 59.99 to 49.99(a current amazon coupon makes it 39.99) for me making it a quick buy. To start these games are never incredibly deep but this iteration actually has a story mode. As you would expect it’s not a deep story with Mario and Sonic getting pulled into a retro console (Jumanji style) along with Dr Eggman and Bowser. It is still a fun way to go through the game and has a ton of fun mini games that are exclusive to the mode so it’s definitely worth a run through. The effort they put in on the feel of the retro games is especially impressive from the old school announcer and the synth sound of the music. It’s a lot of fun and a great bonus inclusion into the game.
In the main multiplayer mode there are 24 different games to play and 10 more games that are in the classic old school original Nintendo sprite style. You can choose from 21 characters and I am still holding out hope that one day Toad or Toadette become playable options. These games are great for families and group play. For me it’s the perfect group game and I kind of view it as a sports themed version of Mario Party. There are definitely a great variety of games and some games like football aka soccer (Nintendo please bring back Mario Strikers!!) are more involved increasing the play time. Standout games for everyone will vary depending on skill level and what they enjoy but Archery actually became a sleeper hit with everyone as they actually incorporate wind and distance into every shot. Football, Dream racing with its Mario Kart like feel and Karate have also been big hits so far. As is seemingly always the case with first party titles Nintendo gets so much out of the system because the graphics are bright and beautiful throughout. The game runs extremely smooth and so far I have not run into any issues. All of the games are very accessible for all ages so you may not find a challenge here but it is still a lot of fun. The main 24 events also have an online multiplayer mode but I have yet to spend time with it. I would say it’s 8/10 and a great party or family game. Definitely a good family gift for the holidays.
