5% sale is like a joke. 10% is minimal.

True, but I hope CrossWorld will get a sale sometime soon. I mean, I doubt they'll get one this year because it's new, but still.

Every generation has a right to choose their culture, no matter how strange it is.

yeah, but who settled on brainrot?

It's a colaboration for merchs, not video games.

That's better off.

Sonic The Hedgehog 3 Movie has been nominated for Golden Joystick Awards for Best Game Adaptation!

What are its competitors in its category?

SEGA Corporation has trademark "Shadow The Hedgehog"

I wonder if it had anything to do with this.

True, but I hope CrossWorld will get a sale sometime soon. I mean, I doubt they'll get one this year because it's new, but still.

Yeah, Christmas Sale / Winter Sale probably.

yeah, but who settled on brainrot?

Who knows. Older generation ages ago settled on something worse though like witch hunting and racial-based mass killing.

That's better off.

It's an easy money for SEGA' franchise team so of course they wouldn't mind.

What are its competitors in its category?

These five:

Devil May Cry (Netflix series)



Arcane Season 2



The Last of Us Season 2



Secret Level



A Minecraft Movie

I wonder if it had anything to do with this.
https://sonic.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000000249198

I doubt it. SEGA of Japan is the one who registered this trademark for Japan market so probably it's just merchs.

Yeah, Christmas Sale / Winter Sale probably.

I hope so, but games that are recently released rarely get sales so soon.

Who knows. Older generation ages ago settled on something worse though like witch hunting and racial-based mass killing.

That's actually true. Brainrot isn't hurting anyone after all.

It's an easy money for SEGA' franchise team so of course they wouldn't mind.

Yeah, but the Olympics still let down Sega... or the other way round, I dunno.

These five:

Devil May Cry (Netflix series)



Arcane Season 2



The Last of Us Season 2



Secret Level



A Minecraft Movie



I doubt it. SEGA of Japan is the one who registered this trademark for Japan market so probably it's just merchs.

Oof, that is a tough crowed if TV series are included.

[Berto]

I hope so, but games that are recently released rarely get sales so soon.

SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance is actually managed to get sales few days after release.



Well, it's only 10% OFF for SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance which is just making it the same with the pre-order price.

That's actually true. Brainrot isn't hurting anyone after all.

Yeah, but the Olympics still let down Sega... or the other way round, I dunno.

I get that. If I was Sonic Team, I'd still be salty about it and rejected it. But the merch and franchise team is different departement afterall.

Oof, that is a tough crowed if TV series are included.

Well, if it's just movie adapatation alone it'be too few so I doubt they're gonna making a category of it.
