History

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games

Vancouver was the location of the 2010 Winter Olympics, and thus was also the main setting of the game Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. Many mountains are located near the city, which is where several Olympic events were held, both in the game and in real life.
