Bah. Silver is one of the better new characters they've introduced to the franchise in the last several years. He just needs a different, less generic design.RagnarokX said:A few of the pics had a stain on them but I cleaned this one up:

Let's disagree to agree!Iam Canadian said:I don't hate every new character in the Sonic series (I actually quite like Blaze the Cat, for one), but I still don't think that Silver deserved a cameo in the stage over, say, Dr. Robotnik.
Fair enough, but given that they were representing the franchise as a whole, they certainly could've picked worse.Iam Canadian said:I don't hate every new character in the Sonic series (I actually quite like Blaze the Cat, for one), but I still don't think that Silver deserved a cameo in the stage over, say, Dr. Robotnik.

RagnarokX said:He's a character from a terrible game that will most likely and most hopefully never appear on a Nintendo system. There's really no 3rd character that deserved to run the loop, but Amy comes the closest as far as representing the franchise.

Seeing Big fishing on the sidelines somewhere would singlehandedly make me forgive the mishandling of the Sonic music.Iam Canadian said:I guess we can agree to disagree on that.
Although I suppose it's good that we didn't get Big the Cat or Cream.
I was using "representing the franchise" as in "providing a balanced cut of series history", rather than "star power woo!" That said, Amy would've been fine too.RagnarokX said:He's a character from a terrible game that will most likely and most hopefully never appear on a Nintendo system.

Edit: Yeah, Dr Robotnik, but he wouldn't exactly run the loop; be better to fly through doing his own thing.

As long as I get the Broadcast Satellaview Zelda Hero/Heroine of Light!RagnarokX said:OK then, let's have CDi Link appear in a Zelda stage
Cream, Emerl, the Babylon Rogues, Marine, a whole host of older one-off characters, and perhaps even the Chaotix. Frankly, his one major appearance so far was more interesting than the shells of themselves most of the rest of the main cast has been reduced to.Scribble said:Like who, do you think?
I personally can't believe that Silver has the *nerve* to show up alongside Knuckles and Tails, as if he was equal to those characters.
The Sonic equivalent to CDi Link would be Sonia or Manic, not Silver.RagnarokX said:OK then, let's have CDi Link appear in a Zelda stage
Now there's an obscure bit of Nintendo history they should've drawn from. Or should at least make available on the VC.Jiggy37 said:As long as I get the Broadcast Satellaview Zelda Hero/Heroine of Light!
Knowing Nintendo, they'd sell each week of BS Zelda separately for $5 each.Jiggy37 said:Yes, Broadcast Satellaview Zelda needs to happen on VC. Absolutely must! Even if not the LttP version, at least the Zelda 1 version--because, really, I have a feeling that Zelda 1 with the power of the SNES backing it might be able to help that game reclaim a good bit of the power it would otherwise have for its Throne of Old-School Top-Down Adventuring Quality. TG16 did wonders for Neutopia and Neutopia II like that.

Oh well, I'll give her the benefit of the doubt in that maybe they were afraid too many people would show up to the LA event if they gave any sort of useful notice. I do appreciate them using one of the great old downtown theatres, though. I hope the plan to bring back the Broadway district in LA actually happens. They're doing a pretty damn good job with the Grand Corridor, so I guess anything's possible.

Scribble said:Cream: Sonic Advance games
Babylon Rogues: OK, they would be bad too, but again, Sonic Riders and Sonic Rivals are better than Sonic 2006
Marine: Sonic Rush Adventure = Still a decent Sonic game
Chaotix: Knuckles Chaotix wasn't great, but they're still part of the classic Sonic games
IMO, it doesn't matter if Silver has a 'good personality' or 'good story', since that isn't what I associate Sonic with in the first place.
