In-depth Review: Sonic Colours – Electronic Theatre

Sonic the Hedgehog has already benefited from an impressive Nintendo DS exclusive release in the form of Sonic Rush, and while the direct sequel, Sonic Rush Adventure, was a little disappointing, Sonic Colours is intended as the spiritual successor to that series as opposed to a simple adaptation of it’s sister release on Wii. The basic premise of the game is the same as that of the Wii version, with Eggman having built an intergalactic theme park and kidnapping aliens known as Wisps within. Here on the Nintendo DS however, the plot is largely irrelevant, simply providing an appropriate excuse for some fantastical level design.
