Classic Sonic could be an alternate costume why would he be his own character?

I don't see why it should do that. In fact, it would probably make more fans all the more content. Reason being is that they'd have access to more content. No need for "2" third party reps of the same company, just one character.

Besides, there's that whole thing about Sonic and his relationship between consoles eh?

That Advance series was excellent, yet his console revisions on Nintendo were a bit of booty.

Put modern on the 3DS!

I'm not fan of the idea either. It's different for characters as Paper Mario and Toon Link, but exactly how different is this Classic Sonic??

LEAGUES different.

Imagine they only gave you the 8-bit version of Mario as a PC. That's what it was like getting the modern Sonic in that way.

Mario would still have the same B moves I'd think. Except no Mario Tornado or Fludd for Down B.

Are we gonna get Classic Donkey Kong now to?? Da fawk is this?

inb4 people wanting this to troll me for wanting Impa and Chrome

What the hell? Classic Sonic would be an alt costume, not his own character, I can't even stress how obvious this is; I'm not even sure what y'all are worried about

Trust me, I know Sonic fans, I am one, but who in their right mind would suggest Classic Sonic as a classic character? They might as well just bring Doc back if they're gonna do that...

I like the Melee version better, BTW

Rare's DK64 and Brawl's models are the superior versions of DK (DK64 not in game though). DKCR was good for DK, less so for Diddy. Also, DK shouldn't show teeth. Ever.

Then there you go. Design is important.

And the Sonicetta thing came from a mock up article poking at Sonic Fandom

Caution: Its kinda graphic.

Also, DK shouldn't show teeth. Ever.
I think they were going for a more comedic DK this time around. Which is alright by me, they succeeded.

It looks like Sonic and Knights mixed together. Any asking for Classic Sonic as a new Sega rep is like asking for 8bit Mario as a new Mario rep.

It would be a replacement, as in Young Link for Toon Link, not a 3rd party newcomer. I see nothing wrong with this since Classic Sonic has been given a revival.

Ok who came up with the idea of Classic Sonic being playable??? This needs to stop, now.

One Sonic is good. Two is not. Agree with the Dr.Mario comment from last page.

I don't know why it needs to stop, and yes you are being hypocritical. I sense Bias.

I also don't understand why folks think it has to do with both sonics. Just put in one.

To be fair, Dr. Mario WAS a playable character, and was NOT an alt costume. Therefore, even though it wouldn't happen, Classic Sonic by himself is very legit. Another arguement is Link and Toon Link/Young Link.

I'm not biased. I just don't want 2 Sonics playable. I perhaps dislike the series, but I would have no problem with a playable Tails, or Knuckles or whoever. But NOT a 2nd Sonic himself.

Now how come this idea isn't as *******ized as me wanting Impa to replace Sheik, or Chrome above Roy???

Its due to your agenda in replacement. That and your obvious disregard for how fans perceive particular characters.

Roy, Sonic, Sheik its about cultural significance overall.

You're one of the first here ASage.

I'll be the last, no doubt. Nor do I care, because Sakurai has shown this many times. If it weren't true, Ike wouldn't of replaced Roy.

Either way, two Sonics wouldn't be a BAD idea, but it's not the SMARTEST idea.

@Metal My Sonic fan-friend. Watch this. I saw this in my reference list:

An old commercial of Cheerios and Sonic.

I'm not opposed to Japan-only characters, otherwise I'd want Lucas gone for example (despite EarthBound never reached EU). Not sure if you meant that with cultural significance though.

Besides why is Sheik more significant than Impa? (For the record, I'd like to know to ; which sold better Skyward Sword or OoT 3DS?)

Two Sonics would be a horrible, HORRIBLE idea, no offense, but I don't see ONE reason why having 2 Sonics would even be a TOLERABLE idea in the SLIGHTEST.

@asage- They had a Mickey D's commercial for Sonic too :cool:

Want classic Sonic, add in Tails. That's what I'm thinking. :/ WHY IS 2 SONICS OK BUT NOT 2 MARIOS?

:phone:
Sonic + Tails/Knuckles/Shadow= Ok
Sonic + Classic Sonic= Not Ok

So...

Mario + Luigi/Peach/Bowser= Ok
Mario + Dr. Mario= Ok

I'm just saying. But I do not support two sonics because they are WAY too close to each other's appearence. (Knuckles for Sm4sh)

Here's one: Sonic Generations was a big leap in including the 3DS to the lineup of his 25 years of celebrations. There was that whole thing about having a rivalry of mascots between Sega and Nintendo's upbringing, ergo its significant.

Its the same character at the end of the day, I honestly don't see anything wrong with relating to that significance by putting one on the console version and one on the portable.

It would be incredibly more efficient than trying to reason out two Third Party reps from the same company. Thats a bad move.

Well, that would work. But not on the same console, as different characters.

Dr.Mario is still a terrible idea though. And for the record; I don't think Roy or Sheik are terrible, just worse choices.

I said this long time before but misconception runs high in this thread.

I could find quite a few people that would beg to differ.

How many people exactly where going ape-**** over the cosmetic update from Y.Link to T.Link? Seemed to be a reasonable gesture to me.

What's wrong with DK's teeth? He's had them since the arcade era.

Dr. Mario Still happened, though. So it wouldn't really matter how he turned out. I see no harm in two reps from Sonic. I don't see MGS returning.

Oh, the two Sonics would be on different versions? My fault, I thought you meant both Classic and Modern Sonic in the same game for both versions :embarrass:

Still though, why not just make Classic Sonic an alt? Kinda unnecessary to make Modern exclusive to one version while making Classic exclusive to the other.

Still ended up being the same character, but you prove my point that design is significance.

Even P. M would be a different character than Mario. Young Link and Toon Link play different than Link, yet they are still virtually the same character.

Classic Wario Mario skin argument. The frames are different yo.

Don't care about the arcade
YO prove my points even Further!

DK with a teeth is just ugly. Don't care about the arcade, this is DK Jr. anyway. It makes him look far too goofy. I don't care about the arcade cause arcade DK is NOT current DK. Did DK Jr. had teeth in the arcade?

Toon Link instead of Young Link was a great idea. Having then both would be awful.

Dr.Mario happened though of time restraints. And was imo the worst addition to tge series yet

In what way did he grab the rim, Star?

Klap Trap could make a nice Down Special. Eats away at the ground for a few moments, with some knockback at the end of the animation. Essentially a Piplup with shorter range.
Kind of how like I thought. Kind of grabbed it with the tip of his head(?) and kind of "rain-dropped" his way down. Really weird, but then again everything about him playing sports was weird yet interesting.
