It's sad. E3 was up there and it was common gamers like you and me that made it worth while. But when they became exclusive to VIPs, investors and what not it lost it's way.

They are gonna need him to show the way...



Oh, yeah, dead meme... Not relevant anymore.

I always regard Nintendo the sort to push Sega down the stairs and under press conference about it just say how clumsy Sega were.
"Partners" my ass.

'90s Nintendo may be... Not the current Nintendo.

Yeah Silver is from a thousand or so years into the future and is confirmed an orphan. I doubt he knows what ice is.

Future after global warming or before that?
Because if it's after that, I'm sure he'd meet lotta ice and snows.

I'm glad Sonic Frontiers got there but the fact it's third to Company of Heroes and Like A dragon I hope Sega won't shift their interest away from Sonic.

Because it's February chart.
Sonic Frontiers has been on the chart since last year, but Company of Heroes 3 and Like A Dragon Ishin had just entered.

'Sonic the Hedgehog 3': Ben Schwartz Addresses Concerns Jim Carrey Won't Return

"I know that Jim Carrey did some interviews, and he's – they're not sure if he's coming back.
My hope is that we all get to come back and we all get to do another one.
That is my hope of all hopes, because I love that franchise so much, and I love the fans, and I love all the stuff we've made.
So, my hope is that we all get to do this third one, and it'll be the best time."

I dunno if it was made just as an April Fools Day joke game, but for a "joke game" it was actually really fun to play! If they at least had Studiopolis voice cast I'd say it would of been worth to purchase over for free (although around £5 or so). I hope Sega will release more Sonic games like these in the future.

Or a new Electronics Expo.

Nintendo has their stuff together better than "SegaSammy".

Future after global warming or before that?
Because if it's after that, I'm sure he'd meet lotta ice and snows.

Given Iblis burned away the world, I imagine global cooling is the least of his concern.

Because it's February chart.
Sonic Frontiers has been on the chart since last year, but Company of Heroes 3 and Like A Dragon Ishin had just entered.

Oh well that's good.

And it's also nice to see PC got exclusive game that no other consoles got.

Or a new Electronics Expo.

If it's still as expensive to parcipate I doubt it won't do any good.

Well... they are at least not companies who made gambling machines which feed on people's addiction and misery, whose profits came from the 5% of customers who were either problem gamblers or at risk.

Oh well that's good.

No other Sonic games stay this long in Top America chart, and if the update really help to boost the sale, it'll still stay in March 2023 chart.

Yeah, whoever the development team made this game, I hope they have leeway by Sega to make more in the future.

That's true. And the matter of getting there.

Well... they are at least not companies who made gambling machines which feed on people's addiction and misery, whose profits came from the 5% of customers who were either problem gamblers or at risk.

I mostly blame SegaSammy for that than SegaSammy.

That's brilliant! Given how well received the gameplay was, may encourage Sonic Team to return towards a Dreamcast-era direction of gameplay.

I think I also noticed one of his plushies was an Amy Rose?

They said it's from the Marketing Team.
I don't though whether it's true or not.

They are inseperable now...
You can't have one without the other.

Amen to that.

Really? I didn't notice that.

So there's a chance?

At this point it's likely Sammy has cannibalized Sega in the partnership and just keep the SegaSammy name for promotional reasons.

Amen to that.

That or at least Sonic Adventure remasters.

Really? I didn't notice that.

It looks it to me.

[Berto]

So there's a chance?

Depended on how busy the Sonic's Social Media Marketing team is.
Besides creating a short game like this versus a long one that could stand up to other Sonic games took different amount of time, manpower, and budget.

At this point it's likely Sammy has cannibalized Sega in the partnership and just keep the SegaSammy name for promotional reasons.

At least after pandemic (pachinko and pachislot took a big hit during pandemic), they're focusing a lot on video games again.

It looks it to me.

Ah.. You meant from the trailer.
I thought the HYENA social media.
Amy and Knuckles plushies never got highlight.
