Like, even in the GRIMDARK GRITTY Sonic cartoon, Robotnik is still the best character by a longshot even though he's nothing like any other version of the character.

I just want a Dr. Eggman game where I get to be a grossly inept cartoon super-villain who tries to take over the world by trying to get emeralds and shoving poor hapless animals inside robots. It would be really cool to have a game where you're Robotnik driving in a mech and you have little robot henchmen you command to do your bidding, kinda like the Misadventures of Tron Bonne or Overlord.

it'll be right there with the other character palette swaps in Mario Kart who aren't Yoshi or Shy Guy.

But in all seriousness judging from Smash Sega is allergic to versions of Sonic who aren't some shade of blue.

Not that he'd like

be in MK at all though

That's a funny way to spell Snively.

No, seriously, Charlie Adler is the only character in SatAM who feels like he's having fun with the role.

I think Metal Sonic is only Sonic character that's supposed to be cool who actually succeeds at being cool, and that's because he's a robot with a turbine for a belly

But Eggman, Knuckles and Big the Cat are the top tier Sonic characters in my book because of just how goofy they are

Sonic Adventure 2 (battle? Gamecube remake) was my first introduction into the 3d Sonic world. Unless you consider the interesting, maybe horrible Sonic 3d Blast. I loved it, and being who I am, probably sank too much time in the Cho garden, and getting all the S ranks to unlock a silly costume. Pretty sure I only achieved it for Shadow before moving on.

Thread should be retitled to "Nintendo Switch: pages of Sonic poo poo"

Especially considering that Switch UI design docs have leaked, why aren't we bitching about how much they're biting on the Windows 10 design language?

If the docs are right then I'm glad that they're bringing themes to the Switch.

Hoping SEGA brings over their home console system ones they did for the 3DS.

Well there is a sonic game to be released on the switch, and it's a retro one, so I think that is topical.

it was sad at the end... sonic sacrificed himself to blow up robotniks space factory, tails and all the lil animals saw it blow up. but tails.... tails is defiant. he breaks onto the airfield and steals a biplane, taking it higher than the gauges will display. theyre just plinkin' the red line but he doesnt care... this fox is on a mission...

I grew up with a Genesis so I memorized the levels in Sonic.

Saying that memorization sucks and is bad game design is weird and kinda dumb because almost all of the best 2D side scrollers are about memorizing things. Classic Castlevania, Mega Man... and ESPECIALLY Contra. I keep hearing people say that "oh man, Contra and Mega Man are insanely hard!!" except... they're really not? You keep playing them, you figure out how things work and gradually they get easier and easier till they're no problem at all.

I guess what I'm saying is git gud scrubs

What do you consider a "hard game"? I think the fact that you have to play something enough to memorize it before you can loving play for more than 3 minutes does indeed make something a hard game.

USB-C can do that IIRC.

USB C is a connector. Thunderbolt 3.0 is a superset of USB 3.1 that uses a USB C connector. I doubt Nintendo has implemented it, and Dev kit leaks show support only for USB 3.0 (3.1 Gen 1).
