But we could've had Mario & Sonic Kart, or Mario & Sonic Party!

All Olympic games series were developed by SEGA while Nintendo already have a team of their own to develop Kart and Party games.
Nintendo would say no if SEGA ever pitched tjose ideas to Nintendo.



SEGA needs an idea that's never been done before in Nintendo if they're gonna have Sonic x Mario crossover.
Just like Ubisoft could succeed in pitvhing X-Com-like game ide for Rabbids x Mario crossover.

What a subpar way to introduce a new character to the lore, that is, if she'll ever get any major appearances in the future.

Probably her next appearance would be in Tailstube again.

Among Us is DEEEEEEEEAD!

It's still on top of the Nintendo's eShop games chart.



I thought Sonic 4 was scrubbed in favour of Sonic Mania?

I guess now SEGA didn't want to srub it since the game's still loved by mobile games fans (but not console gamers).

And does the entirety of IDW Sonic comic take place before Team Sonic Racing?

There's Team Sonic Racing comic published by IDW but it doesn't show where its timeline is ...

But "Mario & Sonic" is a recognised spin-off series. Nintendo could share their spin-offs under the "Mario & Sonic" name as new spin-offs. They could share!

Hm, maybe? Or the next Sonic game.

NINTENDO IS IMPOSTER! ඞ

But Sonic 4 wasn't that good. It didn't even deserve an Episode 3.

This is why I don't regard the comics as canon.

Yes, but only if they had a new idea for it.
For now they haven't.
People who hasn't played the Olympic series might not realize that every new entry always bring something new to the series.

But Sonic 4 wasn't that good. It didn't even deserve an Episode 3.

Episode 2 may be but episode 1 was well received, especially Wii version.
Just look at reviews back then.
Nintendo Gamer mag even gave it 10 of 10 saying it's "Purer and cheaper than Sonic Colours, this is a great reboot for 2D Sonic."

This is why I don't regard the comics as canon.

Hardcore kernel-level anti-cheat doesn't always play nice with the Steam Deck, so since the PC version of Sonic Rumble was first announced, it was unclear if it would be compatible with the portable Linux box. Thankfully, we have our answer, as Valve has ...

Yeah, but they could expand the Mario & Sonic series to have games other than Olympics and those games could be cross-series games with Mario's popular spin-off games while still being their own game.

But we know they're not gonna.
Episode 2 may be but episode 1 was well received, especially Wii version.
Just look at reviews back then.
Nintendo Gamer mag even gave it 10 of 10 saying it's "Purer and cheaper than Sonic Colours, this is a great reboot for 2D Sonic."
Nintendo could've just said that to encourage players towards a bad game.

Even fan smut?

Being just a minute long, I can forgive.
Being short-format over video format, I do not.
Still, I appreciate they used Sonic Adventure chao noises and not "Chao-chao-chao" pokémon speak from Sonic X.

I'm hoping once they release the episode compilation as a single animation it would be in video format.

It's not Nintendo. It's Nintendo Gamer magazine (just like Nintendolife or Nintendo Everything), they are different.
And I did enjoy Sonic 4 Episode 1 in Wii, but not so much in mobile.

Even fan smut?

Fan contents are not included. Only ones from SEGA and their business partners.

The way the animation's done portrait and not landscape ...
As if it was aimed for Tiktok video first and youtube later.
Or may be it is?

Sonic Prime Complete Series Steelbook Blu-Ray is now available for pre-order in the U.S. for June 24.

Aside from fancy packaging, this appears to be a no-frills release of the Netflix series, offering all 23 episodes in 1080p and 5.1 surround, with English audio and subtitles. N-Circle previously released Season 1 and 2 individually, and for those who already bought those two sets, it's unclear if Season 3 will get a separate blu-ray release, or if this collection will be the ...
