Re: James Marsden taking lead role in Sonic the Hedgehog mov
If you look very carefully, it looks like Sonic's eyes are sticking out, just like a real hedgehog. The most challenging part of Sonic’s updated design isn’t revealed in this teaser: his eyes. The filmmakers struggled with how best to depict Sonic’s eyes because often he’s only seen with one, and th...

Re: James Marsden taking lead role in Sonic the Hedgehog mov
There's an interview here about the design changes:

From what little we can see, it looks like some fan character.

Re: Brothers from another motherboard
Apparently it's been dumped. There's a Youtube video here:

Re: James Marsden taking lead role in Sonic the Hedgehog mov
When I first saw that trailer, I needed to double check that it wasn't a spoof. I know little about Pokemon, but that trailer just seems so bizarre. Especially Pikachu's voice which seems too sassy (Isn't he supposed to be a cute character?)

Re: Where will you be if you can't find you?
@Bo, that was a nice read. Some of my fondest internet memories were on the GHZ. Although it seems freaky that some of these things happened 10, even 20 years ago. Feels much more recent.

Re: Sonic 1 and 2 getting Sonic CD style remakes
I don't think the remasters are based on educated guesstimates. The hacking community were very good at pulling out 'data' for the originals, so Christian probably knew the exact values to use when building his engine. Although, I am no expert on the hacking side of things, so I might have understoo...

Re: Sonic 1 and 2 getting Sonic CD style remakes
It's nice to know the story behind the Spinball port, so thanks for posting that. Smash pack didn't get a wide release in Europe, so I missed out on it too. I believe Comic Zone was also later ported to the GBA, but again with a limited release. It's almost like Inforgrammes (the publisher back then...

Re: Sonic 1 and 2 getting Sonic CD style remakes
Wasn't the Spinball source code used to make the GBA version that was released early on in the handheld's life? It couldn't have been emulated as the system didn't have the power. Although Sonic Team must have had the source code of the original Sonic games in order to make Sonic Jam, so if they man...

The article I linked to thinks it's Eggman, which is something I share. It's a bit repetitive as Eggman was in disguise for Sonic Free Riders.

Re: Brothers from another motherboard
Yes, you are definitely correct that Red and Yellow are lazy. I just don't find it as odious as you do on account most of the big properties did recolors early on before working out more distinct supporting cast (though Tails might actually predate both Yellow and Ray?). Remember: Luigi was nothing...

Re: Brothers from another motherboard
Your point of contention is that "Red" and "Yellow" would've been folded into canon? I don't think there was ever any chance of that happening. It's not like Sonic's exact duplicate from Eraser is kicking around anywhere. And even if they did somehow lingered on they surely would've been Luigi-ifie...

Re: Sonic 1 for Nintendo Switch
Nope this version is 4:3. Although I think with the Taxman/Stealth remasters, if they were played on certain devices they would switch from 16:9 to 4:3. I must admit, with the Sonic remasters I preferred 16:9. It made it feel so much fresher to replay again. I also liked that they had added the Soni...

I think the only reason Sonic the Fighters ever had a home release was because the other Model 1 fighters were receiving them around the same time as part of the Sega Ages 2500 series.

Re: Sonic 2018
Eraser was actually supposed to be in Gems and it's menu entry is still left in the game code. Gems even uses a Mega Drive emulator for some of the unlockable bonus games, so I am surprised that Eraser got the chop.

Re: Sonic 2018
Naka said that SegaSonic was planned for Gems, but they couldn't get the controllers to work. And it seems Chaotix was planned for Gems too, but I guess the emulation was too difficult for them. SegaSonic and Chaotix aren't that great games (especially SegaSonic). It's probably better for Sega if th...
