It would be nice of this partnership with sega actually meant "Nintendo developed".

Just a reminder:
The Sonic community is really hillarious.
Sonic Generations did so well it was discounted more easily than most games and it's sells so much they don't even publish the games themselves here.
Sonic fans are really something

Uh...no Sonic 4?
Maybe is this was the '90s.
Just a reminder:
Except the last three Sonic games released broke the Cycle by being actually good games.
Fuck yeah new wallpaper
Why does it have to be? The Adventure "saga" (if it ever was) is long gone and done. Sega can do better at this point.
Because people want it.
Sega president just calls up Iwata

not developed by Sonic Team
that wasn't a timeline, that's just a list of all the mainline, "proper" Sonic games
A reminder that you've lived in a cave for the past 3 years? Boy, thanks.

Broken. The last few games have been at least decent by popular consensus.

Sonic CD also had a planet that floats in the sky, I wonder if this is related.

Did anyone else catch that he called it an Action-Adventure game, not a platformer? Not to mention the world seems connected...

Just by looking at the concept art, you can get an idea of how big this game will be. If nintendo helps with development, this could be an awesome game.

Just a reminder:Just a reminder:
Colors and Generations are considered to have broken this.
Sounds like your argument style.

Nintendo calls Mario an "action" game.
While I wouldn't be too positive on this partnership, didn't they announce a release date for W101?

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Sega finding a way to Dreamcast themselves all over again. Superb. Right at the same time as history repeats with EA. You couldnt script this shit any better!

while EA has been playing the Dreamcast card with Wii U this is so ironic that Nintendo + Sega team up to salvage it

As far as I know, Sonic has sold well only on Nintendo platforms. It was rather stupid to not put Generations on Wii, for example, after Colors sold quite well there.

Was not aware of that! Interesting!
Wasn't aware it's considered on par. It's the best Sonic since Rush on the DS in my opinion, but I'm not a huge Sonic fan so my knowledge is limited at best.
I'm not sure what you're implying here... I own a Wii U, just trying to understand the business rationale. I don't think all Sonic games are exclusive to Nintendo, I think Iwata choose his words very carefully.
I don't even know what Lost World is, other than the terrible sequel to Jurassic Park.
It certainly is excellent, I loved it! I'm just not up on the canon, sorry.
Even Transformed is considered to be one of the best Kart racers in a long time.

I wasn't talking about the story you guys ;_;
canon doesn't have to refer to fiction all the time god damn it
It is according to Sega's website.
Nice concept art. Makes me think my initial thought of the game being story heavy was wrong, which I'm fine with.
Name is dumb though. Sonic and the Lost World would have sounded a lot better.
Hopefully this is a mainline game and not some lame spinoff like the Wii Storybook games.

It's a given: Sumo Digital learned a lot porting OutRun 2 all the time.

OBI-WAN: That's no moon.
When that actually happens, instead of a circle back pat. tell me.
As of right now though, I suggest we keep in on the topic of sonic , because ...yeah
Colors was better than Generations.
Just a reminder:
Bioware took the Sonic Cycle with Sonic Chronicles. It's now the Bioware Cycle.
Also, it seems like the way the publishing is that Nintendo has essentially obtained the IP to be released only on their platforms ala Dragon Quest. It makes sense too; despite the naysayers, since the demise of the Dreamcast, Sonic games have always sold the most on Nintendo platforms.
