Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games 3DS review: as forgettable as the Olympics

For a fifth time, Mario and Sonic are heading off to the Olympic Games to see who’s the best at running, jumping, and wearing medals. Yes, it’s Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, which means another bout of minigames for your Nintendo 3DS. Question is, should you go for gold and score this tie-in title, or dash at the first sight of it?

Off the bat, Rio 2016 is a mixed bag of sweets and sours for all players. This particular offering contains chocolates and raisins, pizzas and stale bread, and puddings with parsley instead of mint. You’ll need to endure a lot in Rio 2016, more than just this review of metaphor salad.
