We're almost running out of time, one last question: Are you going to include SEGA's mascot, Sonic The Hedgehog?
QUOTE(M. Sakurai)
Well... That's a tough question, I'll tell you that Sonic's already in the game, but we're still waiting for a last confirmation from SEGA. Due to the proximity of the game's release, SEGA's deadline to submit their confirmation is the 26th this month, and in that date the official site will be updated about the inclusion or not of SEGA's mascot in the game. I'm personally crossing my fingers.

All up to sega.

 

[the grim lizard]

Seriously? Why is it in a Spanish newspaper, though?? :-\

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

What magazine is that, and do they sell it in latin america??

A part of me wants to believe this, but another wants to say it's a fake.

 

[Ferro De Lupe]

Sorry about the double post, but...



Triple same time post!!

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

Can you give full scans please?

 

[Lemon Drop]

I found someone posting this on gamefaqs and posted a link in the "Official Sonic Thread".

 

[Jason777123]

So that means all our hope for sonic this whole time depends on sega?
I dont know sega has made a lot of bad things happen alot with sonic but if they said
yes to this then everyone might like sonic again possibly.

 

[Kujirudo]

Not too much of a surprise that he is in, but it's really nice to finally hear that he's in (and that Sakurai is hoping to give green light to the blue guy)

 

[Takalth]

We need a concrete reference for this. Do you have the name and issue of the magazine? I'm sure somebody on Smashboards lives where they could buy or at least look at a copy.

Sega would be stupid not to get Sonic in, even if it cost them money. It would just make new fans of the sonic games, kind of how Marth and Roy did with Fire Emblem.

 

[Shuma]

It's a Spanish Magazine, i'll try to find one right now.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

If this is true, and Sega denies, I will lose all my faith on how they manage Sonic... forever.

 

[Meta77]

Sonic oh sonic please be in it in 26th

 

[Ferro De Lupe]

Volrec... What's the name of the magazine?

 

[Volrec]

They wont say no. Everyone will hate them.

 

[Lemon Drop]

They wont say no. Everyone will hate them.

Only the hardcore Smash Bros/Sonic Fans.

 

[Testament27]

not letting sonic in would be their second greatest mistake they ever make with sonic.

the first greatest being sonic the hedgehog 2006

 

[I Like Smash...]

They wont say no. Everyone will hate them.

im already preparing myself to hate them...
i never thought they could manage to f-ck things up for Sonic as amazingly as they have...
this will definitely...
without a doubt...
be the icing on the cake...
they only way i could possibly be more mad at Sega than i am right now is if i actually end up being right about this...

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

YES!! Name please, y un escaneo entero si no es mucha molestia por favor!!

 

[Testament27]

6 days....its either going to be the best update or the worst one.....

fanboys are gonna crash the internet either way if this gets out on the boards...

I wonder when this article was typed up. I know it was sometime after E3.


EDIT:!!!!!!!!!!!

Club Nintendo is the name of the Magazine (Mexico magazine)

 

[Volrec]

Good job. Now more.

 

[Star105]

This seems good but what date did this magizine come out?

it was kind of obvious that sonic was going to be in the game but this gives us a date whether its true or not.

This seems to be like the other magizine that reported Sonic's inclusion as fact a couple of months ago. MAYBE this is fact but there still is a chance this could be fake.

 

[chaos_Leader]

Its not directly "News about Sonic', more like News about News about Sonic. also keep in mind that something can easily be lost in the translation, it is Japanese to Spanish.

All the fanboys are holding their breath, whether it will come out a scream, and obscenity, a sigh or a cheer, remains to be seen.

 

[Raid07]

 

[Eight Sage]

Fake.

The same image above is going around the web...

Why we don't have full scans?

Because someone print one page and claimed it to be official.

 

[Phaazoid]

proven fake. read the second reason why this guy says it is fake. it is absolute proof.

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

Club Ventendo?? I know about Club Nintendo, but never heard of Ventendo...

 

[Teben]

This would be the world's most humble and ineffective way of anouncing such a hotly anticipated character. Given Nintendo's STRICT, merciless, vice-like grip on the distribution of information by their employees, I SERIOUSLY doubt this thing's authenticity.

Furthermore, it would be extremely easy to piece this together in Photoshop. This is very bare-bones graphic design. The arguments cited by samusrule93 are worth merit as well.

Everyone should be more surprised if this is actually true than vice versa.

 

[Lemon Drop]

Club Ventendo?? I know about Club Nintendo, but never heard of Ventendo...

Yup terns out to be Club nintendo

proven fake. read the second reason why this guy says it is fake. it is absolute proof.

Just like how this same exact magaizine got early screen shots of Twilight Princess and everyone thought it was fake? Then turned out to be true?

 

[PrettyGoodYear]

If it is Club Nintendo, I will buy one tomorrow.

 

[Lemon Drop]

If it is Club Nintendo, I will buy one tomorrow.

By any chance you have a scanner?

The person on the "Nintendo" forum boards who brought this up, won't post anymore pictures of the magazine (since its his friend's and not his)

 

[k!llsw!tch]

Ugh, Who to believe?!?!?

 

[Lemon Drop]

Ugh, Who to believe?!?!?

Now this is brought up, pretty sure people in the next few days will confirm if its fake or real, though if July 26 comes and there is news about Sonic, then its real.

 

[Vali]

Lemon Drop he was referring to the part in the first speech paragraph in the middle of the 2nd line where it clearly says "Ventendo" and not Nintendo. Unless Ventendo is a mexican word and should be capatalised I'm going to slap a big fat FAKE garuntee on this little beauty.

 

[Michael Blaine]

ventendo

ROFL....I'm definitely not expecting anything to come of this.

 

[k!llsw!tch]

It doesn't seem likely they would go to a Spanish magazine and talk about this, when I'm sure there's more Americans that wanna know this info. It's like going to the middle of no where and tell one guy about it.

 

[Teben]

When did the poster ever say this was in the Club Nintendo mag, anyway? Did I miss that or has everyone just made a big assumption?

 

[Lemon Drop]

The world doesn't revolve around English speakers only. Pretty sure I said this before Sweden was the first magazine to get info about NiGHTS 2.
