Apparently came from a TSSZ article.
Both images call back to
an October story we posted in conjunction with Sonic Paradise regarding Izaskun Urretabizkaia’s comments on a game then-titled “Sonic Anniversary” and a new Mario & Sonic game focused on the 2012 London Summer Olympics. Both box art shots apparently emerged from a Brazilian gaming website called
gameLib,
though the specific details of how and where they came from are not
readily apparent as they aren’t attached to any visible news story.

Boris Johnson and Ken Livingston hidden characters plz.
Actually with the rate of improvement the Olympic games got maybe we'll have a fun game... in 2016.
Wouldn't surprise me in the least.
Would like an actual platformer crossover, though.
Don't know why this is called a rumor. Seeing how much money the previous two games did, I was already expecting the London Olympics game. I hope they add Shade and Babylon Rogues to this one.
Espio please.
I'd assume the rival characters from the previous game (Rouge, Omega, Dry Bones etc) would be the new characters.
Rosalina, please
When are we going to get Mario & Sonic at the Hollywood Roxbury?
UNCE UNCE UNCE UNCE UNCE...
i think this will sell better. i'll surely buy this i didnt by the beijin olympics because i wasnt interested in it. but i cant wait to see what the british olympics will look like. britians caught a lot of attention with the royal wedding this week so the olympics will be hugely viewed too.
and you know its britian! who'd not be all excited and nuts over the olympics being held there. i been waiting for it since i was a kid. it'll be so magical
next time hopefully america.
Maybe they can race in the abandoned Tube tunnels. Just watch out for the giant rats... Or swim the Serpentine (don't swallow the water). Perhaps they can visit the sites outside London in this "national" Olympics, if they can find one.

Looks like Mario and Sonic are skipping the DS and heading for the 3DS.
no way, when i was little i was really happy to get games that mention us even if we were bad guys in the game. its just so neat to see your culture and the thing you love together .
and those sound adventerous @ darkwing i want to do that too
That skip is actually to be expected. There needs to be a reason to get more people to want a 3DS. Personally, I'll wait at least another year before I even think about getting a 3DS.
needs more cockney speaking Amy Rose
"Wotcha Sonic! Sugar and spice day for an Olympic event for true, aint it? Clock ya at the bloody finish line, china!"
I want Shadow to sound like Gaz/Ghost from CoD: MW.
And Rosalina to be voiced by Katie Price.

To be honest going on Nintendo's track record of hiring british celebrities to promoting their products she wouldn't be the worst idea!
Also, Sonic Vs Jeremy Clarkson in an Areial Atom on a lap around the London Marathon course.
ohwait We cant have fun things.

I am surprise no one has posted these new screenshots yet. Looks like Windy Valley is one stage in the game.
Graphics look better and a Mario style sidescroller? WANT.
