Yeah firstly the water turned a different colour so they tried to combat that by adding a ton of Chlorine into it... which burned the swimmers eyes. Was just a huge mess overall... the Irish president of the Olympics commitee here was arrested mid games for trying to sell the tickets they were awarded for events illegally, 6 of the officials from Ireland had their passports taken off them to stop um leaving the country after it. Ireland, our officials literally become ticket touts if they think they can make a few euro from their position.

It doesn't look all the different from the other games, so it's not surprising that people don't really care about the game.

This is a big meh from me..... so yeah it flew under the radar, but guess what? theres a reason for it doing so.
No one is really all that intrested in it.

^ this.

Its a lazy nintendo game, ment to fill a game drought, and cash in on the Olympics.

Fun fact, this is the ONLY rugby game on the Wii U, and it's the first time any of the Mario characters played the sport

(Totally not a bullshot by me)

...

Is this game just dismissed due to it being an Olympic tie in? I know tie ins are shoddy, but I feel they put a lot of effort onto the latest entry. Even the menu music has that Brazilian flavour.

If jumping to conclusions was an Olympic event, you would've taken home the gold for that right there.

I don't think it can fall off the radar if it never appeared on the radar in the first place

A lot of games that aren't popular (both positively and negatively) won't be discussed, is the way of the internet D:

Was it ever on the radar to begin with?

these kinds of games arent as popular as they were on Wii.
