Sonic the Hedgehog confirmed. Japan release date of January 24th. Online co-op?

[Procrasticritter]

ok, my new main will be whoever is the best at kicking the **** out of Sonic.

I actually like Sonic quite a bit, its the rabid fanboys that worship him that annoy me.

let the noob-slaying begin.

 

[Kokichi]

I REALLY hope it gets delayed in America...I'm in Japan right now, that means I won't get to play it until I get back to the states...*cries*

.............. nice -___-

 

[PyrasTerran]

It makes sense that they'd delay it in Japan to let people have at Wii Fit for the holidays in Japan.

But Reggie did promise that Dec. 3 is D-Day for the Americas.. I don't think we'll have a delay, ourselves.

 

[Pima]

Awwww, I really wanted Sonic to not-be-in =(. Oh well he'll probably be one of the most overused characters so I'll just have to pwn them online

Promises do get broken, sweetheart. =/

Quoted for truth.

Sounds like you need a kick in the balls.





I mean that in a loving way.

 

[.Yoshi]

Yeah..promises aren't 100% guaranteed..*coughpoliticscough*

@Kokichi
Do you speak Japanese at least?

 

[Kelexo]

Y'know what thrills me? Online Co-op. If its anything like Strikers, this game officially became best game of my lifetime. HELL, even if it was just melee with that option, I'd still say that. Sakurai, you win.

I don't care about the delay now, this is badass, more time = better game.

Also, I can see the update this morning,

"Uh...sorry guys...sorry for the delay...I'm just gonna confirm Sonic, will we be even then? ^_^"

 

[Aryman]

I don't like you.

Seconded. What the hell is the matter with you.

 

[element_of_fire]

chi can say whatever he wants

 

[Eagle]

I really hope tonights update will be the Trailer and/or Sonic.

Give us the Australian release date T_T

 

[Firestorm88]

Conference is now over. Last 45 mins was spent on Wii Fit.

 

[Aninymouse]

Australians do tend to get f*cked over, huh? you'll probably have to wait until April and it'll cost 80USD for no reason ; -;

 

[SmashBrosManiac]

only 27 minutes >.<; Please Sakuraiiii let us see teh trailer >_<

 

[Xsyven]

That still doesn't change the fact that I hate him for saying it.

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

@ Kokichi

Wow, that sure isn't selfish.

I'm still sad about the japanese release date. I actually wanted to play alot of people internationally, but you want the game to be delayed because of a personal inconvenience.

Some people can truly be selfish at times.

 

[The Director]

Let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet. Just because it's been given a release date in Japan of Jan. doesn't mean that ours will get pushed back. After all, Japan never got a true release date, so it technically hasn't been delayed. (it's just been dated)

Or was it Nov. 22nd? Was that date official?

 

[Procrasticritter]

I suppose everyone will want Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow as playable characters too now huh?

IMO, they'll be ATs at best, and they shouldn't be any higher than that.

If I;m proven wrong well, then I'm proven wrong.

Tails is my favourite game character. I was hoping for a Sonic & Tails character like Ice Climbers. Hopefully Tails is in the game as a clone, Assist Trophy, or something =(

 

[BoG]

Any japanese holidays that month? I know most of them don't celebrate christmas, so you never know the reasoning. I'm optimistic. Thats like, 5 days before I'm 18. Talk about a par-tay.

 

[Yoshi King]

Rofl, Firestorm I didn't know you had an account here as well. Smogoners ftw. <3

Like I said over there, both Sonic and online co-op greatly excite me.

 

[gregthepirate]

if tails isn't playable ill cut myself. Sonic is useless. Hope we don't get delayed.

At first I thought, 'what the hell? Tails can't be a clone of Sonic!"

But then I remembered, Tails can do a spindash in the 2d games. :O

 

[BubbleShield]

I creamed my pants when I heard about this haha =P

Sonic seems a little out of place but eh, we'll just have to wait and see.

Rofl, Firestorm I didn't know you had an account here as well. Smogoners ftw. <3

Like I said over there, both Sonic and online co-op greatly excite me.

I sense an increase of sticky keyboards tonight.

 

[G@BE]

I cant contain my... love for what just happened... Portal... and Sonic in Brawl.. all in one day... too ****ING good

 

[OnyxVulpine]

Sweet is all I have to say really. Glad hes finally confirmed, I guess I was right :3

Now more conflict can be compromised... or more will be started ugh..

-Onyx

 

[Big Burn]

any other character from the sonic series will be assist trophies at best... we should just be happy with sonic!!!!

 

[G@BE]

they only said one more 3rd party character will be in it. Sonic and Snake
thats it... no hope for tails or knuckles

 

[gregthepirate]

tails FTW...i guess sonic is kind of cool though...8 minutes till video.

 

[SmashBrosManiac]

they only said one more 3rd party character will be in it. Sonic and Snake

That's like getting the cake AND eating it...

 

[tirkaro]

lol, noob. he only PREDICTED 1-2 more 3rd parties, excluding snake. that means megaman still has a chance.

 

[gregthepirate]

hahahahahahahahahahaa.....cloud.....hahahahahahahaha

 

[burnthepriest6]

I'm going to be laughing when we get a late update XD haha

 

[.Yoshi]

It's unlikely that they'll show the video on the updates tonight. They didn't show Snake's video the day they showed it in Japan for the Konami event; it was a whole week after.

Plus, it'd be more fun if they revealed an item from the Sonic games, then in a week reveal Sonic.

 

[G@BE]

I think i remember Sakuri (i think thats how you spell it) saying there would only be 2 3rd party chharacters in the whole.... so... snake and sonic
I really dont think megaman would be in it for some reason

 

[Cronius]

Is there anyone else out there that feels that they won't be able to sleep tonight?

 

[Ban Heim]

I got my fingers crossed for Megaman also, but there's a much lower chance of him making the cut than there was for Sonic.
