No, see this is the problem. We get honest attempts at trying to make Sonic I know Heroes is a stretch people hate Shadow the Hedgehog and 06' is now Game Grumps best video game series of being awful (How you survived that game Viepershark I will never know.) but you can't just be all: "Oh look people are mad about Capcom's bad treatment of the IP that made them household names coast to coast, let's get a Sonic and SEGA comparison."
Like, no.
Stop.
Please.
Sonic Colours, Rush, Generations are honest attempts at trying to do what can be done with Sonic. Capcom is sitting here telling us this is cool that they acknowledge the fans support of Megaman, and they're releasing this great 8-bit era game for free with their blessing. The thing that blows my mind most is no one at Capcom immediately said "We aren't even going to try another style or bit? I mean like we have sprites of Megaman Power Fighters for NEO GEO. Fuck it I can go on the internet and recolour these in less than an hour. No? Okay."
It's derivative, the novelty is past its' prime this isn't like the common disgruntled "Oh they are trying to be retro for the sake of being retro, there are so many creative ways to BE retro. Megaman Powered up Assets? I bet THOSE files are still ON file. If not I know a place you can get them (see what I'm doing here?). This isn't acceptable, it wouldn't be in any other form of media the shitty part is you can't even speak with your wallet against it because it's fucking free.
I LIKE the IDEA of this game, but seeing everything other than the character I'm constantly playing as in a new way is already boring. Plus I mean this and Rockman Xover are the Megaman 25th Anniversary games? SF get's a treasure chest (which 4 are sitting at my local game stop but that's irrelevant.) Capcom can spend $XXXXX on anything else but Megaman, I don't get it, I sit here and honestly just do not understand.
I also cannot see how you can compare SEGA risking everything to try and keep Sonic in good standing as opposed to letting him wither and die.
