The problem is that there isn't just a single "Sonic Fanbase". Sonic fans are split in a multitude of directions... you have people like me who dabble in an older generation of Sonic, pretty much from Rush Adventure back (although I do like Sonic 4 and Sonic Chronicles) and who are also big fans of the cartoons and comic series, however the "modern Sonic" games are pretty terrible. Then you have people who hated the entire Sonic Adventure title line (SA, SA2, SH, StH) but like modern Sonic because it embraced the speed aspect of Gen Sonic more than it does the platforming and adventure aspects. Then you've got a group of people who only like the related media, and a group of people who only like Gen Sonic, and a group of people who only like Sonic Adventure and maybe the comics...
The Sonic Fanbase will never be satisfied because there are far too many niches within it.
