Sega admits Sonic is falling

[Sho_"Rocker"_Daisuke]

And, we dont want two of the same type of All-Around type of guys, right? Sonic Party games and Mario Party games, and Sonic Sports games and Mario Sports games, and so on. Mario got to that level first, where he can be in all types of games and fit in. But Sonic stayed in with the platforming type of game for the first few. And those were the best.

being in more than one genre has been done before, I'm pretty sure about that

so what if Mario got into this before Sonic? I'm more of a Sonic fan than Mario, and sometimes, I'd just rather play a game with him than that fat plumber that has a speaking dissability

and Flare proves a good point
