Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games[edit ]
In the Nintendo 3DS version, Sticks is only playable in the Archery and Archery Plus events. She is also an unlockable character; she can be unlocked by defeating her in Archery Plus on Day 3 of Sonic's story.
Sticks has a similar role in the Wii U version, being an unlockable playable character exclusive to the Archery event. Here, she is unlocked if she is defeated after challenging the player following a tournament.
In an image gallery on the Play Nintendo website showing screenshots of the Nintendo 3DS version, Sticks is confused with Marine, another character from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.[1]
