Sega needs to give a Sonic game to Nintendo
Safe for Work? Yes
Ever since Sonic the Hedgehog 4 was announced, I have been wondering what it will mean for the Sonic franchise’s future. As I pondered, Mega64 released a new video discussing Sonic, and gave me my answer. With Sonic 4, Sonic will continue to be the same old shit, constantly trying to recreate the original 2D games. What will happen when Sonic finally DOES recapture that magic? It’ll still be the same “run around and grab rings” thrillride crap that we’ve been playing for the entire lifecycle of the franchise; and because Sega isn’t the kind of company that strives for innovation in their games, there is only one hope left for Sonic.
Sega needs to give Sonic to Nintendo.
