Release my children! My hat is truly great and mighty.

why build a robot baby in the first place

i am also suddenly reminded of the fact that in the opening scene of the old animated transformers movie, there's what appears to be transformer children running about and i never understood that either

Living the Dream
I had a Genesis before I had an SNES as a kid and I just liked a lot of the music in the sonic games while recognizing they were merely pretty average platformers

the series I have an irrational love of from Sega was Phantasy Star, which is depressing in its own way in how it ended up

this is the kind of decision the free market makes

whenever someone says "let the free market decide" i imagine it's like parents asking their toddler how many oreos they'd like
except when the toddler goes "all of them!" the parents go "hahahaha" instead of "well i guess that's for the best"

dialog so bad it's making me communist

my explanation for weirdos liking sonic: literally an entire generation of latchkey kids who were kept in their homes in the suburbs with nothing to do and nowhere to go for miles. the only thing they can really do is play sonic, and it's the only thing they can use to relate to other kids

if it wasn't sonic it would have been something else. there's plenty of weirdos who are really into mario but mario has a big broad appeal so the weirdos don't stand out so much

yo autists love sonic because he's super popular and not a human. autists are drawn to express their emotions by nonhuman characters because they're less intimidating, which is why simon baron cohen uses trains and other forms of transportation to teach them emotions. there's a shitload of sonic fan art because he's easy af to draw
