Robotnik meeting Knuckles in Mushroom World kind of makes sense and it seems like we’ve got a chaos emerald of sorts as well (I wonder if that means we’ll see Super Sonic by the end). I am curious how they’re going to properly introduce and develop both Tails and Knuckles and their relationship with Sonic in one movie though.

It looks like they’re sidelining the cop character, which is probably for the best since we’ve established who the character is and Tails can now play off Sonic.

I wonder if Coleen’s still going to voice Tails in this movie like she did at the end of the last one or if they’ll replace her with a slightly more well known actor/actress

Sounds like the Master Emerald is gonna be the big plot driving macguffin. I'm sure Knuckles flips sides before or during the climax, but I wonder if we'll see Metal Sonic or if the big threat at the end will just be Eggman in some big machine. I feel like having Eggman keep the quill at the end of the first movie logically leads to Metal Sonic in the second? And then they can have look-a-like on the soundtrack, please, please do that

The cop storyline was dumb and tone deaf in 2020 so it's probably a good idea to dump it. "I hate being a small town cop. All i do out here is help people with their problems... why can't I be a real big city cop?"

I forget, did the first movie have any? Also as he finally seemed to have the character down by the end of the last one I look forward to Jim Carrey hamming it up as Robotnik in this movie.

In fact, with Roger leaving I honestly wouldn’t mind Ben Schwartz taking over the role of Sonic in the games as well. But alas he’s union and would probably cost more than Sega’s willing to pay.

Less focus on the cop is good, but the original Sonic Movie was such bland swill that I can't get excited for the sequel at all. I hope to be pleasantly suprised though.

Eh, I liked it well enough (and this is coming from a guy who was ready to write the movie off the second we got the first plot details) and I appreciate them delaying the film to fix that terrible Sonic model from the original trailer. This one seems like it’s more focused on the Sonic side of things though so hopefully it’ll be better.

It was just so nothing. I didn't feel anything. Sonic's arc was that he had to stand up and fight instead of running away but he didn't want to go through the portal anyway. His motivation to stay on earth seemed more out of comfort, he had zero connection to the people of Greenhill but got a big 'everyone stands up for sonic' moment that felt unearned in the extreeme. Like theres a perfectly fine kids movie about the sheltered and fearful sonic getting mixed up with humans and learning to make friends and have fun and fight the baddie at the end but instead we got a car trip and a bucket list.

finally played the Unleashed Project and while it's really impressive as a modding effort, and it was kind of nice to revisit them after so long, the Unleashed daytime levels, especially in the second half, are just kinda arseholes huh. i guess between playing them so much at release that i knew where the trip points were and just really appreciating like the freshness of the approach and quality of technical execution at the time that i'd overlook things i'd kind of forgotten all the bits that are just there to be pricks to you that now stand out with distance as someone that was an ardent Unleashed defender at the time, i dunno that i'd go to the mat so hard for it after that i'm glad they're doing the "Knuckles is a gullible idiot" intro

Looks like we might be getting a new retro collection to go with Colours Ultimate: https://twitter.com/sonicstadium/status/1396241037346185217?s=19 No details on what games it might contain, but if we finally get Advance/Rush in a compilation then I'd be really happy. Or maybe the early 3D games? Who knows what we'll get. June's almost here, they surely have to announce a livestream or something by the anniversary date. Surely.

They can't port Segasonic because it uses a trackball.

Sure you can, either rewrite the movement code if you have the source code, or tie the position of the analogue stick to a given trackball value, so it controls like a regular game.

It's just a big mouse ball that's not hard to replicate with a stick. It will have a big effect on how the game feels though, holding a direction versus spinning a ball constantly is going to feel really different. But its Segasonic Arcade its not going to be that interesting even with a trackball honestly. I played it at segaworld with my dad I died in the lava zone thats my segasonic adventure.

Segasonic isn't great but deserves a rerelease of some kind, and I'm sure the lack of a trackball would be a non-issue if M2 were in charge of the port

I’ve played the game before via emulation and it wasn’t that hard to control with a key pad (though it was a bit slippery at times) so I don’t really see mapping the trackball to an analogue stick being that terribly difficult. Come to think of it, did the game even get released in the west in some fashion?

There are files in the game (or maybe they were found in a beta?) of the US Robotnik design to replace Eggman but it was never officially released outside of Japan so they went unused.

I haven't been to SegaWorld London, but I definitely played it somewhere. I also played the arcade release of Sonic 1 that cut out Marble Zone and Labyrinth Zone, and for years I wasn't sure if I'd just dreamed it, but apparently it was real, and I'm not crazy.

Was what little dialogue that’s in the game translated or was it all still in Japanese? That’s the only version I’ve ever been able to find at least.
