Had no idea Sonic was so popular in Brazil.

Thanks to Tectoy, Sega master System is the most popular console in Brazil, even until now.
So I guess Sonic being popular in Brazil is the caused effect.

Also, have you heard of Sonic Prime announcement?

Damn, I kinda late to the party.
The logo is kinda strange.
Why Sonic's fonts looks like it's shattered.
I feel like it's gonna be broken if I touch it.

I'm not too keen on the name itself. Will the cartoon take place in Sonic's "prime" or could they not think of a name better than "Sonic Boom"?

I think it's like from DC Comic : Superboy Prime from Earth Prime. (Later become Superman Prime)
There are other another Superboy from another earth (earth from another dimension) : Earth 1, Earth 2, Earth 3, etc

Sonic Prime to take place in Sonic Team’s video game universe,
SEGA crossovers not ruled out

Recently we got the official announcement of the upcoming Netflix show Sonic Prime, but not that much information has come out about what the show will actually be.
As we know Sonic Prime is being written by Duncan Rouleau, who did give us a bit of insight into what we can expect from the TV show come 2022, including talking about possibility of future SEGA crossovers.

I'm not a Superman boffin, but was Superboy that clone of Superman made with Lex Luthor's DNA? I can't remember if he was created after the supposed death of Superman after his fight with Doomsday or somewhen else. But I think no one liked Superman Prime.

No, different one.
That's Conner Kent.
This Superboy Prime is Clark Kent from Earth Prime.
Earth where Superboy is the only one superhero in his universe.
Earth like ours but plus Superboy.
He's a good guy at first, but later become one of the main antagonist of Infinite Crisis.
He murdered many members of Teen Titans on that event.
One of the scariest DC villain because of his unstable emotion but with such power, nobody can predict him.

Eek. I hope Sonic Prime is nothing like that.

Eek. I hope Sonic Prime is nothing like that.

The 'Sonic Prime' show is aimed for kids so there is no way Sonic going that route.
But the core may be same, Sonic is from earth prime / universe prime and then traveled to multiverse and met Sonic from other universe.

I too heard about this. I did consider bringing it up but I didn't know if it was legitimate or not.

All I hope for is that it would be as good as Lego Mario, but I doubt Nintendo will allow Lego to share their toys with Sega.

I remember seeing that Lego Idea months ago.
I think SEGA agreed to that concept recently is also because Sonic 30th Anniversary is nearing.
They need all exposure they can get.

Also, here's Sonic Prime from archie comic :
