NE: "Sonic as a franchise is in a curious situation right now. When we look at the hedgehog’s popularity, it is definitely at a high-point thanks to the successful movie sequel that was recently in cinemas. However, when we talk about the actual games, some would argue it’s been a while since we saw a solid release from Sonic Team."
Switch owners can take advantage of the latest SEGA / Atlus sale on the eShop for June 2024, which includes the lowest price ever for Sonic Frontiers. A bunch of other titles are also discounted.
A new patch for Sonic Frontiers resolves the game's controversial difficulties and many other polarizing elements.
From GameWatcher: "Publisher Sega has lofty plans for its Sonic IP, aiming to develop it in such a way that it will "catch up and surpass Mario" in the future.
Sonic and Mario have always been competitors, but where Nintendo has managed to consistently stick the landing with its titles – even when stepping outside its comfort zone – Sega's output has often received a mixed reception from both fans and critics.
im a huge sonic fan, but that will never happen.
mario games have solid gameplay in every game he is in.
mario is also more child friendly and easier to play.
Mario is brimming with quality and Nintendo will take time with it. Other than Panasonic Era, usually quality games. So SEGA prepare to take your time and don't cheap out.
By selling it to Xbox so we can hear that 25 million players tried the game for 5 minutes? Then every sheep and journo can pretend that Phil is the King of Japan and Sega is nothing without him, the Nintendo should give in and sell to MS and that Sony only makes movie games not classic games.
Lol
Making games like Frontiers is not going to help them achieve that.
Also Superstars was average at best
They should have stuck on the Sonic Mania train, then work towards Sonic Adventure 3
the time for this passed, sega. back in the Nintendo vs. Genesis days when Sonic was the new mascot on the block maybe.
Sega should've just either did sonic adventure 1&2 remaster collection or sonic adventure 3 but actually put some work in it unlike that sonic origins remaster collection they just released it look the same as it did back in the day
Ya don’t say…
