Sonic Creator Yuji Naka Still Wants Mario And Sonic To Team Up In Action Game Together

“Actually, I wanted Mario [and Sonic] to appear together, so one time I went to give Miyamoto-san a presentation on how I want to create an action game which is co-starred by Mario and Sonic. It was in the GameCube days, and I took around four planners with me. It is a pity that the discussion was ‘clearly it isn’t necessary for Mario and Sonic to co-star in an action [game]’ and it didn’t become a reality, but SEGA was able to get the license for the Olympics just at that time, so in order to make the best use of the license, companion characters appeared together. A little later Sonic appeared in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. However, this too came into reality because I requested from Sakurai-san, ‘I want Sonic to appear [in Smash Bros.]’. The Olympics is a bit different from my wish, but I think it’s a good thing that children around the world are happy about them co-starring. But someday I want to realize an action [game] together with Mario. I think I’m going to give another presentation so that Takashi [Iizuka] finds the necessity [of a Mario & Sonic action game] (laughs).

“I also agree. Previously they were considered rivals, but when I saw them co-starring, I honestly thought that Nintendo acknowledged Sonic.”
Original Sonic designer Naoto Ohshima

I always liked to see an adventure game where you can play with both characters,
with a mix of levels between mario and sonic using a nice balance.

I prefer EAD1 team to make the game with some help from sega.

Personally i didn't liked the 3D sonic games so much. EAD1 has good experience in making wonderful 3d adventure mario games and i know they will deliver a wonderful game.

I always like the art from sonic games, i liked the environment from the black knight. I hoped it was some kind of adventure game, but they maked this game again like the rest of the 3d sonic games.

What are your thoughts about it?
