The artstyle looks great. After Lost World and Forces, I assumed SEGA couldn't get what made the classic artstyle so appealing, but the environments look gorgeous here.
Also, i think Classic Sonic actually has a new model, seemed different enough. Seems they won't recycle so much stuff in this one and I'm glad it's that way
They never forgot it's just that they treat Sonic like Mario but they are not as good as Nintendo at doing that. What I mean by that is almost all Sonic games have some sort of innovation. They took Nintendo's mantra of only release a game if there is Innovation and ran with it. They just aren't as good as Nintendo are at maintaining the feel of the series while innovating. All 3D Mario games have a through line but also their own personality. Same goes for "Super Mario Bros", "new Super Mario Bros" "Super Mario Land" etc etc. Team Sonic just weren't as good. That's not to say they didn't have moments because they had moments where they were releasing and are releasing absolutely amazing experiences, but they dropped the ball more than they succeeded. It has been great that Team Sonic has decided to try and make their 2D experience more familiar, but innovating with their 3D games. Frontiers was great, Forces, not so much. Forces could have been really good though, potential was there. Team Sonic didn't forget they just thought it was more viable to try to get Sonic to break that ceiling again, like he did in the 90s. Sure new experiences are fun but you know what's better? Going home and relaxing in familiar surroundings
Getting a lot of New Super Mario Bros and Kirby's Return to Dreamland vibes with this one, SEGA. And I absolutely love it and can't wait to see more of it.
Add a hint of Kirby: Triple Deluxe (& Planet Robobot) to that mix as well, since there seems to be some multi-layered level design throughout (like between the background and foreground). I found that pretty amusing... and neat!
@@LukeMM95 Im curious as well I mean they used the sonic from sonic generations they pretty much did Sonic ( modern sonic) but removed modern and put classic and hoping this does good.
@@LukeMM95 they’ve been relying on nostalgia from repeated uses of the Green Hill Zone and such, but always with modern Sonic, save for Sonic Mania and Sonic Generations. The thing that I really like about the 90’s art style is that the more simplistic design actually makes the Sonic universe feel more colorful and enjoyable. It really harkens back to the day when you had gorgeous, colorful backgrounds and Sonic and Tails cruising through stages. The more simple design could tap into the edgy nature when needed, and not as the base. That’s what’s so refreshing, speaking as someone who was around before Sonic the Hedgehog was even a thing.
@@marissac.chavez2250 He was known as Nack the Weasel in the North American and European releases of Sonic Triple Trouble, but reverted to the name Fang in all later games. But in the comics he really is called Nack.
I love that they're doing more with the chaos emeralds in Sonic games than just God Mode. First Frontiers and now this. I can't wait to see what they come up with next.
For me too. My son screamed at me to buy it for his birthday in July . I told him it's likely in November for release. We both beat Sonic Mania in February. He got the Switch for Christmas. He didn't like how Sonic Frontiers looked. He said it looks " boring". I skipped it.
It’s nice to see Amy back, especially in her classic appearance. I’m excited to see if the characters are cosmetic changes or alter gameplay, and if so, what Amy will do to said gameplay.
At 0:48 it showed Knuckles with his traditional wall climbing and Tails flying. Yeah, character choice alters gameplay. Who you pick to play alters the path you take. Almost always been the way of the side scrolling Sonic games.
I’m super glad Classic Amy aka Rosy the Rascal is getting more love considering her only appearance in a main classic game was Sonic CD where she basically just got kidnapped it’s nice seeing her part of the group now fighting along side them also I find Classic Amy to be way more likable than modern Amy she’s so cute!
I personally like this version of Amy, I can't wait to see Ray and Mighty make a return as well. I don't like DLC but if they can do it in a subtle way like they did in Sonic Mania Plus It's good. Personally I don't see how they could implement Ray the Squirell in a Multiplayer co-op setting. I do however see that Mighty the Badger could make sense as a playable character though, perhaps with other characters from the Sega Genesis era of Sonic. @Doodle1678 Amy was also in Sonic 3D I thought, though only as an NPC.
I’m loving the brighter more colorful chibi like look. It really fits the kind of gameplay it seems to be going for. It’s still got hints of the older “classic” sonic moments like forces most notable with the whale badnik design seen in the trailer but I have no complaints so long as they pull off that mashing of style well enough
This looks incredible, I love classic sonic, this feels so much like a natural evolution, I really hope it plays well, I feel like this is all that required from sonic great high speed 2d games with great acts/stages new environments and bosses and great music.
As much as I adore Sonic Mania and the enhanced classic artstyle I still like it when they modernize the graphics while keeping the 2D gameplay. Hyped!
Real, Sonic mania had that perfect blend. Not too sure about this new 3D look, since we had a more Superior art style from Mania. But maybe this will grow on me
Its so interesting to see what classic sonic actually did in those few years before the modern era started, I could play like this and mania for ages and never get bored
Sonic Frontier was such a beautiful and pleasing game and this looks equally great in its own way. Finally putting the respect back into the franchise ❤
This looks awesome and I am happy to see Fang/Nack return to the Sonic franchise after a very long time. As a hardcore lifelong Sonic fan, I am genuinely excited to play this game when it comes out.
I thought this looked good at first but I'm most excited for the multiplayer, hope it gets as chaotic as new super mario bros as I bet that's what they were going for. This does also look stunning visually.
@@TrovaoSmasher That's possible, but I think it's more likely they're talking about the entire New Super Mario Bros. series _except_ for New Super Mario Bros. After all, New Super Mario Bros. U and New Super Mario Bros. 2 have multiplayer coop too.
@@soch144 Yeah, I agree with you. Sonic: Superstars is definitely really pretty, all things considered, but I'm tired of Classic Sonic too. Mania, Origins and now this. Almost feels like Classic Sonic is getting more games than Modern Sonic.
This is probably the most excited I’ve been for a Sonic game in a long time. This looks fun, fast, and I love the multiplayer feature. My childhood dreams! 😁
I know right I was mentioning to the girl I wish they did a Sonic in a Mario U deluxe style and here it is!! They should have saved Sonic frontiers for the next 4K Nintendo switch system.
I have 3 things to say about Sonic Superstars: 1. Day one purchase 2. Gameplay feels very Rayman Origins and Legends like 3. I'm excited to see Fang the sniper to return.
Yea it's actually been awhile since we haven't seen Fang (an old forgotten character) in a new sonic game. Now I'm curious to see how he looks in 3D style.
This... This feels like I'm back to my childhood playing Sonic. They captured the classic Sonic magic in this trailer. Yoo did Sega finally do modern Sonic right?
I do wish he looked a bit "cooler" like in the genesis days though. Just watch the sonic CD cutscenes and even though he's cute, sonic has a sharp confidence that makes him appealing. Sonic feels more like mickey mouse in this game. Still, at least the game seems to play just as well as the classics
Thank you to the developers who gave the classic sonic fans what they missed and revamping it to something better but nostalgic. Definitely buying this.
I just want it to feel/control like Mania. My biggest criticism of Sonic Team's recent Sonic games is that Sonic doesn't control as consistently as he used to.
As a non-fan Sonic enjoyer, has this ever been done before? If not, HOW has it never been done before? It looks so great, in an obvious way! It's simply the classic game but modernised. Just like Super Mario's many successful platformers did. So satisfying to watch the trailer alone.
Because they probably would've fked it up big time, Sonic 4 was a mess, Classic gameplay in Generations/Forces felt more like an afterthought or a gimmick more than anything and the 2000s had dimps making the Advance/Rush series non-stop, also Rivals went unnoticed by most Simply put, there wasn't any room for something like this before, specially without Mania sparking interest once again in 2D sonic, had they attempted it anywhere near the past 20 years it would end up as just another Sonic 4, but it has been long enough that they can use nostalgia to their advantage as much as they please, at least they're making a proper comeback with this one
They actually did try this before with Sonic 4, a game that was supposed to be a direct sequel to the OG classic trilogy. Thing is, it...wasn't very good.
It looks nothing like a modern version of the classic games. Also looks pretty cheap. Seems like they straight up copy-pasta'd the classic games physics, but at least that's far better than the jank controls we got in Sonic 4 and the 2D sections of Colours, Generations, etc.
As a 1st gen Sonic fan, I wish future Sonic games would just stay looking like this. Though I do hope for a return of Chao Garden some day! I'm also so happy this will be getting a physical release. Thank you SEGA and Nintendo!
@@TokyoACR true, but franchises evolve and people end up wanting different iterations of the same character, but you know what? That's ok. Right now both versions of sonic are getting new games, so we'll all end up having what we want ✌️
@@TokyoACR Very true, it’s just that jump to 3-D back then split the fanbase, so I can see why some people get worked up (…some more civil than others). Although with this at least, we get a nice 2-D game to please them too after the awesome adventure that was Frontiers :)
Now THAT'S a Classic Sonic game! It's in the form of Kirby's Return to Dream Land and I love it! And best of all...Fang returns!Excellent move, SEGA and Sonic Team
@@tailsfan10 I’m just saying there are some Sonic games that weren’t made by Sonic Team (Sonic Mania and Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog for a few examples). And this trailer never specified who was making this game.
Having played the originals, it feels weird to be able to play Sonic on a Nintendo console. It looks awesome! It gives me Sonic 2 vibes, where you used to be able to play as Tails and Sonic in 2 player co-op.
Well this looks incredible and the art style they’ve gone with looks absolutely gorgeous. More than likely gonna be a release day purchase for me, just hoping the final product comes out well with really good controls
@@lethalsword628Heh, exactly! It seems like the original poster/commenter is trying to interpret Sonic Superstars as a flagship/mainline game, when it really is supposed to be a supplementary experience to the 3D games.
Yeah, I'm definitely buying this. Everything about this game so far feels so right, it's almost like a sequel to Sonic Mania. Also, holy cow! They brought Fang the Sniper back!
I am glad that they are finally giving AMY the importance it deserves and joining it to the main group, thank you very much for this Sega, although it is unlikely I would like CREAM, BLAZE and ROUGE to be playable as well or that the characters have alternative modern skins
My thoughts on whether they should appear: Blaze would be too out of place in a Classic game with Sonic. However, a Classic style Blaze the Cat game with Eggman Nega as the main antagonist and levels entirely in the Sol Dimension could be interesting to see (or a DLC or bonus mode that's an entirely separate story from the main game maybe aside from some Easter Egg stuff). As for Rouge, I don't think we ever saw her really being "introduced" in Sonic Adventure 2, she and Knuckles seemed to already have a rivalry going on so perhaps it's plausible that Rouge already knew Knuckles and the others during the Classic era. As for Cream, I would say she might be too young for a Classic game, but then again we've had Classic Charmy (although that was before Sega established that he was a little kid). Still, as you said, it's unlikely for any of them to appear, but yeah, it would be cool to see Classic forms of those characters.
@@ASpaceOstrich this was her original design back in Sonic CD. They basically wanted to make a female hedgehog back then so I guess they went with the normal look for a hedgehog (spines on the back, dressed with a skirt and pink color because she's female) and eventually she was modernized.
@@krystal_272 Why do you think that when we can't really tell what the gameplay will be like yet? "Sonic Mania" was actually developed by Sonic fans rather than the usual groups of developers, and I doubt they're doing that again. If it's Sonic Team making this, the gameplay could easily be just as bad as in "Sonic 4."
YESSSSS! Finally, it looks like they've heard us about what we want a new Sonic to be! As an original release Sonic the Hedgehog player, I'm absolutely jazzed about this!
I'm glad it isn't called Sonic 5 like it was rumored, but it seems this is a Sonic Origins sequel and probably a sequel to Sonic 4. I wonder if they'll bridge the gap between the islands and how they got to Station Square and started living there in Sonic Adventure. I feel like now Sonic Origins with the last cutscene was a tease to this game and we'll see the adventures they go on in the final cutscene.
0:48 Ohhh, I was waiting for the appearance of Cream the rabbit and Blazer The cat, as well as the other 2 playable characters that appeared in Sonic mania, that is TEAM Sonic 😎I hope they make a Remake trilogy of SONIC Advance
@@kayden2119 you do know the series slowed down it's releases in the 2010s right? In the 2000s there was a game or 2 every single year, that stopped for awhile
@@Supersonicspyro god sonic fans have no idea how games work. You realize having that many games a year is in fact not normal right? Having one games every few years IS consistent. You are spoiled and you do not even realize it lmao
Looks great! Glad to see 2d Sonic alive, co-existing with 3d Sonic. Art wise, It looks to me like a more authentic take on Classic Sonic in 3d than Generations or Forces, which Is a good thing.
As a kid who grew up with Sonic in the 90s I always thought it was such a shame SEGA seemingly abandoned the classic Sonic art style, since its has such a timeless aesthetic that just ages better than “modern” Sonic imo. This announcement is such a blessing!
I made a postcard for all the original designs of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy. There may have been ones like that for Espio the Chameleon and Metal Sonic.
Nintendo, I appreciate you as a company for the many amazing experiences you have given me throughout my entire 33 year life. We love Tears of the Kingdom, my opinion is it is the best Zelda game you've ever made. If Sega and Team Sonic can do open world Sonic games and still make side scrolling 2D, you guys can absolutely make another top-down Zelda. I'll buy it. I don't mind waiting another 6 years for the next 3D Zelda. It'll be more than worth the wait but you could give us some new, "classic" experiences for in between. A Link Between Worlds was phenomenal.
Oh my gosh this looks really good. This is like new Super Mario Bros. Wii but with Sonic characters. Having four-player action in a classic like Sonic game will be awesome

sonic 4 was basically this
They actually did try this before with Sonic 4, a game that was supposed to be a direct sequel to the OG classic trilogy. Thing is, it...wasn't very good.
It looks nothing like a modern version of the classic games. Also looks pretty cheap. Seems like they straight up copy-pasta'd the classic games physics, but at least that's far better than the jank controls we got in Sonic 4 and the 2D sections of Colours, Generations, etc.
Pretty cheap? Nothing about it looks cheap. If it was cheap No effort would’ve been put into making the gameplay engaging and fun.
Sega really went all out with this everything looks so colorful
Omg! They did exactly what I have been wanting! A classic Sonic game with newer graphics. I am so stoked!
I’m hyped for this game looks really great
Yeah
I agree.
@@Aiden-xr1seSame here.
What I’m particularly excited for is that the chaos emeralds *actually* have a reason to exist besides collecting 7 of them to turn super.
@@MrChipathenIsMyDoggo multiplayer
As a 1st gen Sonic fan, I wish future Sonic games would just stay looking like this. Though I do hope for a return of Chao Garden some day! I'm also so happy this will be getting a physical release. Thank you SEGA and Nintendo!
I wish classic sonic stayed dead. Modern is way better.
I would really love it if they just kept doing more of this alongside the 3D games. Then everyone's happy.
@@mmert138 lol modern sonic wouldn't have existed if it weren't for classic.
@@TokyoACR true, but franchises evolve and people end up wanting different iterations of the same character, but you know what? That's ok. Right now both versions of sonic are getting new games, so we'll all end up having what we want ✌️
@@TokyoACR Very true, it’s just that jump to 3-D back then split the fanbase, so I can see why some people get worked up (…some more civil than others). Although with this at least, we get a nice 2-D game to please them too after the awesome adventure that was Frontiers :)
Now THAT'S a Classic Sonic game! It's in the form of Kirby's Return to Dream Land and I love it! And best of all...Fang returns!Excellent move, SEGA and Sonic Team
Is Sonic Team making this?
@@Shrock568 Yeah, they're the main ones who developed Sonic games
@@tailsfan10 I’m just saying there are some Sonic games that weren’t made by Sonic Team (Sonic Mania and Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog for a few examples). And this trailer never specified who was making this game.
@@Shrock568 That is very true. But either way, this game looks great
@@Shrock568 Update: If you've been looking at the recent news, the Sonic Team logo is in the game demo. They're definitely involved with the game
Having played the originals, it feels weird to be able to play Sonic on a Nintendo console. It looks awesome! It gives me Sonic 2 vibes, where you used to be able to play as Tails and Sonic in 2 player co-op.
Have you been in a comma since 2001?
@@andrewtuell1991 lmfao
@@andrewtuell1991 Naw our boi been living in a cave secluded from the rest of us and been only playing sonic and kunckles lol
@Andrew Tuell Are you having your period now?
Let’s hope the music is at least half as good as Sonic 2´s soundtrack
This reminds me to the New Super Mario Bros. games.
And I love it.
A classic Sonic game I would never expect.
Wasn’t expecting this, but I am quite excited for this game and it so far looks good
0:43 Finally Classic Amy Rose is offical playable after all those years
This just feels like a dream come true, and if it’s good… well I’d love to see more.
One of the best announcements of the day! Can't wait!
Looks amazing! I actually really love the power to enter the 3D background, that’ll be really cool
Well this looks incredible and the art style they’ve gone with looks absolutely gorgeous. More than likely gonna be a release day purchase for me, just hoping the final product comes out well with really good controls
This should've been the Sonic 4 we ended up getting years ago.
Absolutely!
Its should but it's too late for that.
I thought Sonic Mania was the true Sonic 4 but I guess that's just me.
Your pfp 💀💀
@@Kim-py3iv no, Sonic mania is different than Sonic the Hedgehog 4 episode 1 and 2.
They're getting back to their roots, fantastic! Can't wait for the release!
They never left.
@@cristianovogt5586 Frontiers and Forces were very different from the usual
What abt mania and origins.
@@lethalsword628Heh, exactly! It seems like the original poster/commenter is trying to interpret Sonic Superstars as a flagship/mainline game, when it really is supposed to be a supplementary experience to the 3D games.
0:06
So this canonically how sonic transitioned to 3D, good to know
I don’t think I’ve been this excited for a game in a while.
Yeah, I'm definitely buying this. Everything about this game so far feels so right, it's almost like a sequel to Sonic Mania.
Also, holy cow! They brought Fang the Sniper back!
Maybe they will bring Bark and Bean back as well
WHY IS NO ONE ELSE MENTIONING THE FACT THEY'RE BRINGING FANG BACK BESIDES YOU? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WTF
After mania bringing back Mighty and Ray, it seems Sega is actually acknowledging the other mobians
@@SpeedDemonAJThey also mentioned Tangle and Sticks in frontiers, so maybe we might see more mobians soon??
Apparently they also got naoto ohshima back to design an entirely new character for the game… can’t wait to see what it looks like
0:55 did Sonic and his friends got turned into Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde?
i love the style, it reminds me of mario and kirby mixed together. hopefully we can get both mighty and ray back
No doubt. Looks great. Multiplayer too. I just hope there's plenty of play time and it isn't too short.
Better short and amazing, rather than long and boring.
I am glad that they are finally giving AMY the importance it deserves and joining it to the main group, thank you very much for this Sega, although it is unlikely I would like CREAM, BLAZE and ROUGE to be playable as well or that the characters have alternative modern skins
yea it will be cool
I mean, those three didn’t debut until after the classic era.
My thoughts on whether they should appear:
Blaze would be too out of place in a Classic game with Sonic. However, a Classic style Blaze the Cat game with Eggman Nega as the main antagonist and levels entirely in the Sol Dimension could be interesting to see (or a DLC or bonus mode that's an entirely separate story from the main game maybe aside from some Easter Egg stuff).
As for Rouge, I don't think we ever saw her really being "introduced" in Sonic Adventure 2, she and Knuckles seemed to already have a rivalry going on so perhaps it's plausible that Rouge already knew Knuckles and the others during the Classic era.
As for Cream, I would say she might be too young for a Classic game, but then again we've had Classic Charmy (although that was before Sega established that he was a little kid).
Still, as you said, it's unlikely for any of them to appear, but yeah, it would be cool to see Classic forms of those characters.
That was Amy? Why does she look like the sonic equivalent of Ms. Pac Man?
@@ASpaceOstrich this was her original design back in Sonic CD. They basically wanted to make a female hedgehog back then so I guess they went with the normal look for a hedgehog (spines on the back, dressed with a skirt and pink color because she's female) and eventually she was modernized.
This is actually pretty cool. I could only imagine what the game would look like on the OLED display with all the vibrant colors.
I just love how they mix in classic and modern gameplay
About time. This is what Ive been wanting for decades. New 2D Sonic with NEW levels, a high budget polish with classic controls and mechanics
As someone who loved sonic generations this looks incredible.
Let's just hope it doesn't play like Sonic Generations.
I get skeptical about new Sonic games but this looks legitimately good. Excited
This looks great! It’s the approach they honestly should’ve taken for a long time now. can’t wait!
They already tried it with "Sonic 4," and it still sucked.
@@Compucles yeah but this is different, it’s almost like mania 2 in a sense
Sonic 4 shoulda beeen this
@@krystal_272 Why do you think that when we can't really tell what the gameplay will be like yet? "Sonic Mania" was actually developed by Sonic fans rather than the usual groups of developers, and I doubt they're doing that again. If it's Sonic Team making this, the gameplay could easily be just as bad as in "Sonic 4."
@@Compucles sonic team didn't make 4 Dimps did
YESSSSS! Finally, it looks like they've heard us about what we want a new Sonic to be! As an original release Sonic the Hedgehog player, I'm absolutely jazzed about this!
This Looks absolutely Amazing! Love the Visuals, Designs and Graphics. Definitely can't wait to play this Game!
This nintendos fingerprint all over it and I love it! I never expected Sega to push the 2D formula to this level, I'm excited for this
I'm glad it isn't called Sonic 5 like it was rumored, but it seems this is a Sonic Origins sequel and probably a sequel to Sonic 4. I wonder if they'll bridge the gap between the islands and how they got to Station Square and started living there in Sonic Adventure. I feel like now Sonic Origins with the last cutscene was a tease to this game and we'll see the adventures they go on in the final cutscene.
Holy shiii it's the guy who made The Jar
Amy matching Sonic's speed is something awesome.
This game could potentially outshine Sonic Mania if enough effort and creativity are put into this. So far so good!
LIKE GIVING SONIC A VOICE AND SONIC GOING HYPER AGAIN
No, but it can do better like sonic mania.
Mania purists probably won't admit it lol
Fang? Oh i can’t wait to see his in game 3d model
I have never played a Sonic game before, but this new artstyle alone is making me wanna get it. It soooo cute 😍
It’s not really a new artstyle. We’ve seen it before
Bro did you live under a rock? There’s at least 50 sonic games
Maybe he was just too busy or couldn't afford a game?
@ezu I recommend Sonic 2 as your first 2D game and Adventure 2 as your first 3D game, but whatever floats your boat
@@bidenator9760thanks for the recommendation! I really want to get into the franchise 😁

Just because it doesn't feature a taller hedgehog with green eyes doesn't mean it doesn't have modern influences to it, i.e. rail grinding

As a longtime Sonic Fan, I’m enjoying the consistent Sonic content SEGA has been producing as of late. Sonic Superstars looks really promising.
when have they not made consistent sonic content lmao there is a never ending amount of sonic games
@@kayden2119 you do know the series slowed down it's releases in the 2010s right? In the 2000s there was a game or 2 every single year, that stopped for awhile

@@Supersonicspyro it not had been slowed down, every sonic games are cool.
Looks great! Glad to see 2d Sonic alive, co-existing with 3d Sonic. Art wise, It looks to me like a more authentic take on Classic Sonic in 3d than Generations or Forces, which Is a good thing.
As a kid who grew up with Sonic in the 90s I always thought it was such a shame SEGA seemingly abandoned the classic Sonic art style, since its has such a timeless aesthetic that just ages better than “modern” Sonic imo. This announcement is such a blessing!
Omg the art style is truly remarkably gorgeous! This looks so fun 🔥🔥

Who or whatever
@@MariaLopez-ti4oohe talking about the purple guy on the left side that’s closest to the tree that’s off screen.
1:22 F to that one sonic clone
I made a postcard for all the original designs of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy. There may have been ones like that for Espio the Chameleon and Metal Sonic.
Looks like the sonic mania 2 we've been waiting for, but with original levels. Also I love Fang's return.
It's clearly the real Sonic 4 doe
Looks absolutely nothing like sonic mania or a possible sonic mania 2 lol …. Sonic mania 2 is what they should have made
This is what the Sonic franchise need!!
Ok this looks dope! I love the new 3d artstyle. Day one purchase for sure!
So this is basically the Sonic version of Super Mario bros Wonder
Or, Sonic’s/Sega’s competitor to Nintendo’s Mario Wonder
I really hope this will have the same physics and momentum of Sonic Mania
So happy! it looks amazing, cant wait to see if they nail the multiplayer which has always been a big dream of mine, one im afraid to test
Nintendo, I appreciate you as a company for the many amazing experiences you have given me throughout my entire 33 year life.
We love Tears of the Kingdom, my opinion is it is the best Zelda game you've ever made.
If Sega and Team Sonic can do open world Sonic games and still make side scrolling 2D, you guys can absolutely make another top-down Zelda.
I'll buy it.
I don't mind waiting another 6 years for the next 3D Zelda.
It'll be more than worth the wait but you could give us some new, "classic" experiences for in between.
A Link Between Worlds was phenomenal.
Now imagine a Megaman 12 but you get to play as Protoman, Roll and Bass too.
This looks cool. Love the look, hopefully it marks a classic sonic revival
My brother in christ, theres a classic Sonic Revival almost every year
:D
Fancy seeing you here! :]
:D
:D
:D
Oh my gosh this looks really good. This is like new Super Mario Bros. Wii but with Sonic characters. Having four-player action in a classic like Sonic game will be awesome
It's also kind of like Kirby's Return to Dream Land, but it's Sonic themed. And it's awesome!
I can't wait for a new mario game
I WAS THINKING OF THE SAME THING
Yes! This is what I miss about the Sonic games! I have not bought a Sonic game after the GameCube Era but now I'm interested in this!
