Knuckles miniseries is now the most-watched original series in Paramount+'s existence
It's also the most-watched kids and family title ever.

Kirby also has many other interesting characters such as Meta Knight, Bandana Waddle Dee, and King Dedede.
Ristar doesn't have any memorable one other than himself.
May be if the game has a sequel it could introduce more characters but sadly there was none.

But what pisses me off is that he could of! If he had more than one game, new characters could've been introduced and expanded upon.

For example, some of the chharacters from the first game could be expanded upon, such as Planet Flora's elder or Ristars parents.

May be the limitation of budget for CGI are the reason why they're mostly concentrating on characters other than Knuckles.
Cartoon and animated series wouldn't have that problem.

It is regarded the most likely reason.

You have to include Shadow in the name. The game was the main title for "The Year of the Shadow" and also made to promote Shadow to promote the third movie.

THey'll like put his face on the box along with the two Sonics, what more could he want?

Blame Free Riders. Its low sales ended this franchise's life.

I really don't see why one bad apple spoils the barrel. Why can't Sonic Team just try again but don't use Kinect controls this time?

Very minimaslistic indeed since it's only targeted for Japanese fans. Also no games and comic/manga version of it.

I've seen some of the TIkTok animations. All I would ask from it is if they released widescreen versions of the videos for YouTube than just keep them on TikTok. I don't see how hard that would be.

But this one is physical, right? Not software?

Sonic Speed Battle? I presume it's a physical product.

Unless you're on about my Sonic RPBG then no, I don't see the point in wasting cardboard on a physical copy only I can play. I'm making it for Tabletop Sim.

I hate tomatoes too. I'd be distress too if I had to eat even a little portion of it, let alone tomato as big as that.

I don't mind tomatoes, but I prefer to eat them when they're picked red and ripe than picked green and then ripe.
