《瑪利歐＆索尼克 AT 溫哥華奧運》（マリオ＆ソニックAT バンクーバーオリンピック / Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games）是由SEGA與任天堂合作開發，於2009年在Wii平台推出的體感派對型運動遊戲，同時也推出DS版本。是《瑪利歐＆索尼克 AT 北京奧運》(Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games)的續作，背景設定於2010年加拿大溫哥華冬季奧運，將瑪利歐與索尼克兩大經典遊戲宇宙中的角色，集合在同一個冬季運動舞台上，讓玩家能透過體感操作，體驗多項冬季奧運競賽的樂趣。

儘管遊戲本身並沒有像傳統RPG或冒險遊戲那樣完整敘事的劇情主線，但它以溫哥華冬季奧運會為背景，塑造出「瑪利歐世界與索尼克世界的明星齊聚一堂，進行冬季奧運對決」的輕鬆氣氛。可以選擇控制任天堂陣營的瑪利歐、路易吉、碧姬公主、耀西，或是SEGA陣營的索尼克、塔爾斯、納克魯斯、艾咪等角色，進行各式冬季競賽項目。雙方世界裡的反派如庫巴與蛋頭博士也參賽，讓比賽不再是單純競技，更像是明星派對式的大型活動。

操作方面，Wii版本充分活用Wii遙控器與Nunchuk的體感功能，每個運動項目的玩法都與實際運動動作結合，例如在滑雪項目中，需要左右擺動遙控器與Nunchuk來控制角色轉彎、俯衝以及跳躍。滑冰時則需透過準確的節奏搖晃與旋轉手腕來完成優美動作。在冰壺、雪橇與短道速滑項目中，也各自有不同的搖動、按鈕點擊或手部擺動方式，考驗玩家的節奏感、反應與操作熟練度。某些項目還支援Wii平衡板，可以站上板子控制角色平衡，讓遊戲體驗更加貼近真實運動。

關卡與遊戲內容則以溫哥華冬奧的實際賽事為基礎，分為滑雪跳台、越野滑雪、速降滑雪、單板滑雪、花式滑冰、冰球、冰壺、短道速滑、雪橇等多種正式比賽項目，並搭配遊戲風格與角色特色，加入一些誇張有趣的「夢幻競技（Dream Events）」。例如夢幻滑雪板競速賽，將瑪利歐與索尼克系列經典場景如蘑菇王國、綠丘地帶等轉換成滑雪賽道，可以在場地內使用道具、跳躍加速、丟擲飛彈，甚至觸發特殊技能，增添更多不確定性與娛樂性。

遊戲同樣設計多種模式，包括單人挑戰、多人派對、節目式大賽與自由練習。最多支援四人同時對戰，是當時Wii平台上聚會型運動遊戲的代表。可以根據興趣選擇短時間對戰或組成長時間賽季，並透過累積獎盃與積分，解鎖更多項目、角色服裝或音樂。

在市場評價方面，獲得普遍正面肯定。玩家與媒體普遍認為遊戲畫面表現出色，角色建模與場地設計細膩，動作流暢，特別是夢幻競技部分，成功將原作遊戲世界特色融入冬季運動項目，讓玩家不只是參與正式比賽，更能體驗遊戲世界裡的趣味冒險。Wii版充分運用體感操作，玩法輕鬆、易上手，特別適合家庭與朋友聚會場合，成為假期、節日或派對熱門選擇。不過，也有部分評論認為，部分項目過度依賴隨機與體感靈敏度，導致操作時有時略顯不穩定，尤其是在需要精準動作的項目上，表現不如其他專注單一運動類型的遊戲。此外，雖然項目數量豐富，但玩法深度與技巧性相對有限，長時間單人遊玩容易出現重複感，較缺乏持續挑戰動力。

總結來說，這是結合知名角色、冬季運動與體感派對玩法的聚會型遊戲，節奏明快、畫面華麗、操作簡單，特別適合多人遊玩。雖然在遊戲深度與技巧性上稍嫌輕量，但作為家庭娛樂、派對聚會或喜歡瑪利歐、索尼克角色的玩家而言，是既親切又充滿歡樂氣氛的佳作。如果喜歡體感互動、運動競賽與角色明星同台較勁的趣味遊戲，那麼這款作品絕對值得收藏。

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Japanese title: マリオ＆ソニックAT バンクーバーオリンピック) is a motion-based party sports game developed collaboratively by SEGA and Nintendo, released for the Wii in 2009, with a DS version launched simultaneously. As a direct sequel to Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (set in Beijing), this installment is set during the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. It brings together iconic characters from both the Mario and Sonic universes on a shared winter sports stage, allowing players to enjoy various Olympic events through intuitive motion controls.

While the game doesn’t feature a traditional storyline like in RPGs or adventure titles, it creates a fun and festive setting where the stars of the Mario and Sonic worlds gather for a grand winter sports showdown. Players can choose from classic Nintendo characters like Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Yoshi, or SEGA favorites like Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy. Even famous villains like Bowser and Dr. Eggman are part of the competition, making the events feel more like a star-studded party than a serious athletic contest.

The Wii version fully utilizes the Wii Remote and Nunchuk’s motion capabilities. Each sport mimics real-world physical actions—skiing involves tilting the controllers left and right to turn, crouch, or jump; figure skating requires rhythmic shaking and wrist-twisting to perform elegant moves. Events like curling, luge, and short track speed skating use a mix of gestures, button presses, and hand movements, testing the player’s timing, reflexes, and mastery of the controls. Some events also support the Wii Balance Board, allowing players to control character balance by physically shifting their stance—adding a layer of immersion to the gameplay.

The game’s event lineup draws from real Olympic winter sports, including ski jumping, cross-country skiing, downhill skiing, snowboarding, figure skating, ice hockey, curling, short track, and luge. To spice things up, the game introduces “Dream Events,” which inject over-the-top, fantastical twists into the competitions. Dream Snowboard Cross, for example, turns classic Mario and Sonic environments like Mushroom Kingdom and Green Hill Zone into action-packed race tracks filled with items, speed boosts, missiles, and character-specific special moves. These imaginative events add an exciting layer of unpredictability and fun.

Several game modes are available, including single-player challenges, multiplayer party modes, tournament-style competitions, and free practice. Up to four players can compete simultaneously, making it one of the Wii’s standout party sports titles at the time. Players can choose quick matches or extended seasonal events, unlocking new characters, outfits, and music tracks by earning medals and points throughout gameplay.

In terms of reception, the game received generally positive reviews. Players and critics praised the vibrant visuals, well-designed environments, smooth animations, and the charm of the character roster. The Dream Events, in particular, were celebrated for creatively blending the Mario and Sonic game worlds with Olympic themes, turning standard events into fun, fantastical adventures. The motion controls made the game easy to pick up and play, especially ideal for family gatherings, holidays, or party settings.

However, some criticism was directed at the motion control responsiveness, which could feel inconsistent in certain events that required precision. The reliance on motion sensitivity sometimes led to unstable gameplay, especially when compared to other more focused sports titles. Additionally, while the game offered a wide variety of events, some players felt the gameplay lacked depth or technical challenge, making extended solo play feel repetitive over time.

In summary, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is a fast-paced, visually appealing, and highly accessible party sports game that blends beloved characters, motion-based gameplay, and winter sports into a joyful multiplayer experience. While it may not offer deep mechanics or high-level challenge, it excels as a casual, feel-good game perfect for fans of Mario and Sonic or anyone looking for a fun group activity. For those who enjoy motion controls, sports competitions, and cross-universe character matchups, this title is a delightful and worthy addition to any Wii collection.
