          Well from history shows Sonic had a much better track record when it comes to 2D. Mario would be just as good of a track record if it wern't for " those games. "

          2D Mario is nowhere near the good 2D Sonics in quality, while the opposite is true for Sonic in 3D. There's a reason the Mario fanbase doesn't clamor for 2D Mario games in the way Sonic fans do, though honestly I wonder if there even is a Mario fanbase at all beyond just your generic Nintendo fans.

                No, it does not. As long as they keep using the babbified, baby blue, Generations model of classic Sonic, with watered down 3D graphics, with no meaningful input from the Mania devs, I have no interest in however they "reinvent" classic Sonic whatsoever. At least that other Mario game they announced actually redesigned Mario to look how he actually did in the older days.

                All that said I'm going to buy the game and the game looks like it's going to get the momentum and physics ACTUALLY RIGHT this time. It's just a shame about the look of the game.

              That's just because SMB NES is an "important" landmark game that basically help to save gaming from a pit of shovelware bullshit. It's a good game, but how many Mario fans would tell you it's the best Mario game, or even the best 2D Mario game? Super Mario World is an actually great game though, contender for the best Mario game ever made.

                I didnt have too much of a problem with it. The last Emerald was really difficult, yeah but it was doable.
                Advance 2 stages on the other hand. I really don't get it. You gotta have that whole stage memorized by heart, and a map planned out that you have to stick to and hope Zero doesn't frick you up, because if you go of course even a little bit you just wont have the ring multiplier necessary to get enough to pass.
                Dunno if there was some trick to it. Navigating Sonic in that space is really difficult. Problem is, getting all the rings is such a difficult pain, that you don't have much room to test it out. In SA1 there are springs in super accessible places.

          ah that's a good point, so probably around 36 stages then, which is a lot better, although it's more like 24 and 12 boss fights isn't it?

            Every zone being split in 2 is generous, because there have been several times that a whole zone is just a single act.
            But a typical Sonic level is way more complex than a Mario one.

      Sales wise, absolutely true. Sonic is going to be on the PC via Steam, it's going to be on Xbox, Switch, and PlayStation. SMW will only be on the Switch. Even with this, Wonder is going to decimate Sonic Superstars, but the good thing is that both games exist at all.

      I prefer the way wonder looks to the was Sonic Superstars looks if I'm being honest, but dammit you have these two games and that game from the Sonic Mania team coming out and I'm just happy that we're getting actual video game again.
