Sonic is to Mario, as Tails is to Luigi. Fixed. *double shot*

And as is Shadow to Wario.
Though I'm worried about how I keep seeing Shadow with Bowser Jr. in those screenshots just put up.
C'mon, man! You pick the lamest character in the entire Mario franchise to have tag with Shadow!? Junior'd better be taking notes...lots of notes.

Yeah, but see...Petey Piranha didn't replace anyone to get in...Bowser Jr. replaced the Koopa Kids. Nevermind that they're FINALLY COMING BACK AND OH THERE IS A GOD! but still...
Reminds me...we need the Koopa Kids in this game...yes, all of them.

First released gameplay video from SEGA themselves, after being a bunch of jerks and deleting every leaked video, we can finally rest easy and actually see some gameplay without worry. www.gametrailers.com/video/gc-09-mario/54720 It showcases Ice hockey.

Amen to the Koopa kids returning. I missed those buggers. I'm OK with Bowser Junior, if only because he's a little maniac. Petey Pirannah just makes me feel... uncomfortable.
I hope there's more personality between the characters in this one. I heard there would be "Boss Battles" in the DS version. I wonder how far they'd go with that? I just feel that if you are going to have such a cool mix of characters, they should..you know... acknowledge it.

They'd better include fighting in the hockey, or at least checking. Nothing would be as satisfying as plastering your opponent against the Plexiglass.

Ohay, I found a new video and it looks like since Pengie's not going to FIX HIS BLASTED LINKS then I'm going to have to provide the peoples with sweet, sweet info.
To sum it up to those with 56ks or something, it appears they're revealing the boss characters.
From the Mario side we've got...
Dry Bowser (and a team of Dry Bones) playing Ice Hockey. King Boo as the boss for downhill skiing. (...though he just floats there) and a Bullet Bill to hover awhn above your head for the Luge.
And from the Sonic end you'll see...
E-123 Omega doing skiing (He so cheats with that "Haha, I've got a rocket engine in my back" thing) Eggman Nega...also doing some form of skiing And on the Snowboard...OMFHGJ IT'S JET IT'S JET hi Jet.

Ohay, I found a new video and it looks like since Pengie's not going to FIX HIS BLASTED LINKS then I'm going to have to provide the peoples with sweet, sweet info. Yeah, sorry. I've been kinda busy with real life and school and stuff. Don't have as much time to log on as often. I'll remedy that with moar infos! Firstly, a new area from the Wii version. The Twilight Cage from Sonic Chronicles. Some Mauraders, the enemies from the game, appear in the background according to rumors of some people who have the leaked version early. So, i've seen some leaked videos of the game. Unfortunately, they have been taken down usually within a few hours so they aren't available anymore. I believe that any boss you take down, you will be able to unlock and wear their costume on your Mii. Rogue is a also a boss, and maybe a Maurader and Birdo too. Not sure about them as they came from a rumor of the leaked version. Another video showed some mini-games that you could play. There were about 7 or 8-ish of them for the Wii version. Finally, and easily the best new info here, is a video of one of the dream events. It is full of WIN. Basically, it is a choreographed figure skating in Sonic themed environments of epic galores; you may only choose Sonic characters (you choose four of them, you control all of them simultaneously, or grab a friend to command any of the others while the Com commands the last one if you have 3) for it as you time buttons that synchronize in with the music. First is Green Hill Zone as you hear it's theme in the background and you command your characters with the times prompts mentioned earlier to pull off some nice moves. The screen turns black and you see that the background and theme are now from Sonic 2 Death Egg Zone. Some more harder prompts show up as you try to dodge obstacles from what looks like from Chemical Plant Zone. Later, you see what looks like a scene from Sonic Adventure where Station Square was flooded by Chaos. Suddenly, Perfect Chaos appears ready to run rampant! But your characters have the Chaos Emeralds and power themselves up to try and save the day as Open Your Heart starts playing! Its basically a reenactment of the same battle that took place in Sonic Adventure, as the characters try to attack it. As soon as thats done and Perfect Chaos is defeated, the curtain come down and the characters take a bow to the audience which soon displays your score. It's like one gigantic fan-service and it was extremely awesome! There's probably one like this for Mario as well! I'll post some more stuff if I see any. EDIT: Found all the Dream Events! It's a compilation video. Not all of them are uploaded yet and they could be taken down soon. The game should be released tomorrow in the U.S. so look for it soon! www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pafCvxjJigwww.youtube.com/watch?v=kJCxaSykvcw

The official site has been updated and has all the info you guys need. Also, Made some avatars in case you guys want one. I practically peed myself when I saw this post. I can't wait for this game to come out.

So did anyone actually get this?
I got the DS one, and whole heartedly recommend it. It has the adventure mode, which is far more fun than it should be. Not only are there appearances by a surprising number of Sonic and Mario characters, but there is pretty solid gameplay . It's not Zelda quality, but there's a lot to do, and there are some interesting character-specific puzzles. For instance, Rouge shows up, but won't talk to your party unless you have Shadow with you. Alternatively, Donkey Kong is freaking out because he dropped be bananas down a well, so you need to get Silver to pull them out with his telekinesis. Then there are character specific mini-challenges too, like one where Blaze needs to use her fire posers to escape a maze, or Wario must repel a Chain chomp with his flatulence.
The story is pretty shallow, somewhere between a typical Mario and GBA Sonic Plot. Eggman and Bowser (doesn't say how they know each other), are mad they weren't invited to the Oympics, so they kidnap the snow spirits which prevents it from snowing. The spirits themselves have a nice mix of Mario Star Spirit design, and the Chaos emeralds in them. It's up to Mario and Sonic (Sonic is silent in this game, so as not to out do Mario) to recruit a team of winning athletes to get them back. Sadly, the game works on a Pokemon-esq premiss where villains simply give up because you beat them in a sport, but I suppose that's he point of the game. It's still hilarious to see Eggman Nega just give up because you are faster on cross country skis than him.
I really recommend it because of the Character interactions. There's a simple joy in seeing Jet the Hawk give Mario the cold shoulder since he's only concerned with beating Sonic, or having Daisy try to convince Blaze to act more like a real princess.
