Same, but Nintendo Switch. Breath of the Wild is just a nice bonus.

New Mania trailer with a release date. Stardust Speedway baby! I think Knuckles has not only a punch button but a taunt button as well.

i think that might have just been his idle animation. idk though. they should release the game, so that we can be sure

The 2d sections of sonic unleashed looked kinda nice back in the day. Maybe it was because of the werehog levels were depressing.

it's a matter of context, in Unleashed they'd usually start 3D and turn 2D for a stretch later in the stage so it was easier to swallow because it was literally presented as 3D Sonic turned sideways but in Generations they tried to pass it off as a faithful recreation of classic 2D Sonic gameplay but the illusion breaks the moment you jump or run over an incline or whatever

Forces looks to have the same problem, and then there's the custom character stages which seem like generic platformer stuff cribbed from other games

yeah classic sonic in generations was alright as a platformer but you can tell that a lot of the physics were messed with for the sake of less ambiguous jumps.

the 2d sections of unleashed and modern generations were good imo because you retain modern sonic's utility belt of moves like stomp, homing, slide, boost and wall jumps, which makes forking paths based on your choice of moves more interesting and faster paced.
