In celebration of winter Olympic games in Russia, Mario and Sochi

In Celebration on the February 7th 2014 winter Olympic games in Russia, Mario and Sochi on Wii U launches on November 8th 2013.

Can’t hit the slopes this winter, or score a ticket to the 2014 Winter Olympics? Let professional snowboarder and Olympic hopeful Jamie Anderson school you in the art of snowboard slopestyle, a new sport making its debut in Sochi and in Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games for Wii U. Taking players to Sochi, Russia, Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games invites players of all abilities and ages to team up or face off as their favorite characters in the new Wii U game, which re-creates realistic Olympic events such as curling, skiing, figure skating and snowboard slopestyle. Players also can perform moves not possible in real life, such as the Winter Sports Champion Race, a mixed event that combines skiing, snowboarding, skating and bobsleigh in a single event.

I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing the delightful Ms Anderson.  She is as humble as she is talented. Jamie Anderson is a professional snowboard slopestyle competitor, six-time X Games medalist and Olympic hopeful. As a spokeswoman for Nintendo, Jamie Anderson introduces Wii U fans to Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games and discusses her journey to the Olympics and what it means to have snowboard slopestyle recognized as an Olympic sport for the first time in 2014.

 

On behalf of everyone at It’s a Glam Thing, I would like to wish Jamie Anderson the very best in Sochi, Russia 2014!
