Hyper sonic can dash in his jump.... slightly like the fire shield. He also has sparkles around him. Personally i don't know why they chose super instead of hyper... if he was hyper he could dash in his final smash. The only reason they probs chose super is because of the dash. if they did not want it in the game and they chose hyper imagine what the classic sonic fanboys (like myself) would of said

Well Hyper Sonic is obviously the more powerful choice but weirdly enough I prefer his Super Sonic form.

I guess Nintendo chose it over Hyper Sonic because it's the more recognisable and well known transormation.
A friend of mine didn't even know there was a Hyper Sonic until a couple of weeks ago, granted he's not much of a gamer but he knew all about Super Sonic.

Also Super Sonic has had more appearences than Hyper Sonic. infact, I don't he really exsists anymore. I mean we haven't even heard about the SUper Emerlds since S3&K.

... To get hyper sonic you need all of the Master chaos emeralds.

One is like 2x the size of sonic. I wonder how great that would look.

Plus, thats like mario grabbing a star. The rainbow effect doesn't go with sonic. I speak for all when I say that super sonic > hyper sonic.

Hyper Sonic only apeared in 1 game, hurts the eyes, and is even more overpowerd than Super Sonic.

Seriously, its always been Super Sonic in the games. Why choose Hyper Sonic for Brawl?

Super Sonic is the way to go. The only great difference would be all the colors. I wonder if Sakurai put Sonic's Super Sonic Theme in for us for when he turns into Super Sonic. Or do you people think it is better without? I would like to have that little music in it while I smash all my opponents! jejej

Hyper Sonic is better than super sonic in every extent, but has only appeared in one game. Two if you count mega collection. Super sonic i so much better known and is more common and classic. I would be outraged if sonic's final smash was anything but super sonic. Nothing else can compare.

the hyper line was the best.

Tails: flickies Attack your foes for you
Knuckles: if you glide into a wall all the foes on the screen die
sonic: could dash in his jump

Hyper was so epic

(keep in mind Talis and knuckles had no super)

Well, Super Sonic is obviously more widely known, since he's appeared in almost all of the Sonic games, as well as in the animated series, whereas Hyper Sonic only appeared in one game, so Super Sonic is clearly the better choice. And Sonic's current Final Smash is already one of the best, so adding more abilities to it is just overdoing it.
Now, I do still want Hyper Sonic is appear once again, so the only hope left for a Brawl appearance would be this: I'm thinking that there can be an Easter Egg where if a Smash Ball were to appear while you're in super form (that is, if that's even possible), and you break and activate it while being Super Sonic, you'll transform into Hyper Sonic for 15 seconds (the same duration as Super Sonic). To make it fair, since it's just an Easter Egg, everything will be the same as if you were Super Sonic (except for appearance, of course), and when those 15 seconds are over, you convert back to good old, regular, blue Sonic.

Correct me if I'm wrong , but doesn't Hyper Sonic's jump-dash destroy all enemies on-screen?

And I prefer Super Sonic. Don't know why though.

Yes and it also launches you in what ever direction your facing.

I never saw him, hyper is when they have after-images, right?
Yes. When you collect the 7 Chaos Emerlds you can become super knuckles. He just flashes white, runs faster, and is invincible. Hyper is when you collect all 7 Super Emerlds, he runs faster(still), has stars, leaves after images, flashes white, is invincible, and some times when you glide into walls it creates an earthquake destorying any enemies around.

Because of all the reasons you just said.

I mean, Hyper Sonic would **** too hard, so they had to use the next best thing, Super Sonic. [/sarcasm]

In all seriousness, I'm surprised people claim Super Sonic to be classic and not Hyper Sonic. Super Sonic only has 2 more "classic" at most then Hyper Sonic, so why the big fuss either way?

Personally, I'd be all for Hyper, since he's so **** superior to Super, but EVERYONE seems to only know Super Sonic, so why not?


There was indeed a super Knuckles in S3/S3+K
You could also get him in KiStH2
