Trivia

• This was BOTH the last Mario game & Sonic the Hedgehog game to be released in the 2010's.
• As the real life Summer 2020 Olympic Games were delayed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this marks the first time a Mario & Sonic game about Olympic Games has been released with its real-life version not taking place the following year or the exact year.
• The game's title places the location and year after "Olympic Games" rather than before.
  • The game's Japanese title mentions the year rather than before.
• Donkey Kong's bio references the DK Rap from Donkey Kong 64 with the line: "He's so strong, it isn't funny".
• For the first time ever in the Mario & Sonic series, most characters wear sports clothing appropriate for the event that has been chosen.
  • This is the first game in the series where male characters have unique outfits. However, they revert to their standard looks during Dream Events.
  • Even characters who had sports outfits (i.e. Peach and Daisy) in previous installments gained new ones here.
  • The shoes Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Wario and Waluigi wear in athletic events are identical to the ones they wear in Mario Tennis Aces.
  • Toadette is the only non human Mario character to receive a new outfit.
