I don't really like Silver very much. Not because I don't play Sonic 06, but because he got pretty silent canonical treatment ever since then.
Do you mean he is basically never mentioned again?

So my friend gave me his 3DS since he got a new one for his birthday.
I bought Smash 3ds yesterday, and the first thing I did with it was uninstall the patches.
And.. wow.
All the tiny nerfs (and big ones) add up A LOT.
Utilt 2, usmash, dair kb, fsmash lag and kb, sd and all this....
wow.
1.0.0 Was undoubtedly the best version of Sonic.
Honest, at first, the nerfs really didn't bother me all the much. However, the more I play Sonic now and play other characters that have similar things to him, the more these nerfs are annoying me (dam Bthrow and Dsmash). I guess the problem is that they is the Sonic is still a very good and if they give he one buff in a certain way, it could make him the next Shiek of Diddy. Do you really want that?

At least, that's my opinion.

Guys, last night I just pulled off one of the most bizzard and amazing things against a CPU Mario on Sm4sh 3ds. Okay, I was versing
a Lv 8 CPU Mario. We were both on our last stock. Mario was about 40% (I think). I was at the right hand of the stage, right near the edge. He ran and me and I grabbed him then Bthrow him off the stage. I then jump off and followed up with a Bair. This didn't kill him. However, I saw he was about to double jump, so I double jump and then baired him again, kill him around 70%. i was complete stunned. I had no idea how I pulled it off or how I hit him. The thing is though, when i tried to do it again, I couldn't replicate it the same the degree. The most I could get was Bthrow on Mario at 50%, double jump and then Bair, which did kill him. I don't know how I did it the first time, but it could be a cool discovery.

i actually like him if that bit wasn't obvious.
albeit his origin game wasn't the... greatest thing ever...
Yeah, i wished that they'd redo Silvers Origin story because the one in Sonic '06...... dam.

I think Silver is awesome, and underated. I loved his Generations cameo, even tho he needed a little more "ITS NO USE"
I really do love Silver or at least, the concept of Silver. To bad Sega ****ed it up like most other things. Oh well. I guess......

IT'S NO USE!!!

Sonic grows out his spines, throws you onto them, and straight up impales you.

You'd better die below 200% from that.

Up throw looks so cool when the spikes get ridiculously erect. That doesn't happen on the 3ds though.

Silver has an annoying voice, but like most of the Sonic side cast, I'm okay with him. Most side Sonic characters are just sort of there for me. It doesn't matter, Sonic and Eggman are the only necessary characters in a Sonic game.

I remember being really mad about that on 3DS and was really happy to see they fixed it for Wii U.

Silver is the lamest of the hedgehogs, imo.

Archie got it right with Scourge, and Shadow was awesome before they made that bad game.

I don't know Scourge since I don't read the comics. I like Shadow, but everyone sucked in his spinoff game (at least from what I played). I can agree that Shadow and Sonic are so much cooler than Silver, but I don't hate Silver. Most side characters I don't have a problem with. The only character I think is especially annoying is Big the Cat and that's because his voice and his dumbassness bother me.

Too bad after the reboot scourge has become almost nonexistent. Especially when they said they had plans for scourge yet I havent seen him anywhere and its been almost more than a year and a half since he was last used.

I don't mind Silvers concept. I just wish it was executed better.

Also, I have seen Scouge before, though do really know anything about him other than his fail attempt at going Super Sayian

Pfft, all characters past s3k are the worst. Big, being the only exception :p


But really, its been years since I replayed Sonic 2006, (and I try my best to forget its story..) and I just remember Silver as this whiny guy who was easily manipulated to hunt down Sonic without even questioning anything. And I thought Knuckles was the gullible one..

Did anyone see the new Peanut Butter Gamer episode? I just watched it, and I'm laughing way too hard.
I never really watched PBG's stuff, but I looked it up out of curiosity since you brought it up. And yeah, it's pretty funny! Kinda feels like he cut it short though. =/

I see what you mean with Silver. How Sega have presented him is very poor. Tho honestly, the first time I saw Silver was in a M&S Olympic game and I though he was a rally cool character. But that's just me.

Yeah, I definitely agree. I remember in all the promotional work and trailers leading up to Sonic06 he looked awesome and intriguing.

Yeah, I was really hoping they'd do more with him. Such a cool and unique character to the comic.
Scourge was a Sonic recolor before it was cool.
He also started as not a recolor, which makes it interesting. Like, they somehow took one of the lamest, most 90's things about the comic, brought it back, and made it fresh and awesome. That's like the most impressive part about it to me.


Also, this has been brought to my attention, lol.

And then we get this.
I know right? It was such a terrible first experience for him because of a broken boss fight >.>

By the way...

I recently finished a Mario & Sonic sprite animation I’ve been working on in my spare time for many years. Thought some people here might be interested.


Any feedback is much appreciated. I was having an issue with the audio volume coming out a lot lower than intended so I just quickly increased it before re-upload it. Hopefully it's all right now.


Cheers! :)

That was really fun to watch! The worst I can call it is unrefined, but even Alvin-Earthworm's early stuff was rough around the edges, so it's hardly a valid criticism. Speaking of, you know how badly I wish he'd continue SMBZ? Well, I guess this'll scratch my itch. Thanks for sharing that. =D

Let me just ask you this, Cammy. Is there anything else I should add to the article?
Well, I will leave it up to the people.

Good work! It sounded fine to me. If anything, I turned my volume down a little bit, haha.

I don't really watch a lot of sprite animation stuff like this, but I thought it was charming and overall pretty well made, especially for your first animation.

Well after the lawsuit, all characters made by the former head writers were scrapped and since Anti-Sonic and his dimension were made by Penders...yeah. I really liked Scourge too.

Uh...about that.



Let's just hope the vocal minority doesn't give a creative breakdown again.

Oh, sweet! That happened just recently too. Funny how these things pop up right before you think about them. =P

But MAN, has it really been almost a decade since the original run of SMBZ started? I feel positively ancient. @_@
