Though I did notice he failed to bring up the optional missions which would add more decorations to your island which was admittedly neat. Then again, he did dedicate an entire marathon to Sonic’s handheld career starting with the Game Gear up until the Sonic racing games since don’t forget: the Sonic Drift games and Sonic Rivals games are portable. Though it is pretty funny that Sonic Unleashed had a mobile release, thus it tied into the handheld marathon by technicality.

    While the pacing isn't great with the grinding, Rush Adventure is probably my favorite handheld Sonic game. It feels like a complete package with good Zone themes that also feel generally cohesive with the Island theme, the sailing minigames are mostly fun (The ship isn't), and missions are okay if you want something to slowly chip away at after finishing the game. I love just going back to this game and playing a few stages or missions every now and then. Marine still sucks though.

Ken Penders was an artist who worked for Archie comics and made a lot of comic characters including like 100+ echidna characters and says because there were no copyright claims on those characters he made, he legally owned them and wanted money for their use. Sega said no, Archie was lazy with the lawsuit and now Ken owns all those characters, so anytime a new Echidna is made Ken pops back up. Like in the Sonic 2 movie I've heard he is suing Sega or something because of the echidna tribe. DUDE IS JUST CRAZY.

      To put it simply, the game is a great "baby's first RPG." When I played it as a ten year-old, I thought it was legit, and I also replayed it multiple times. I wouldn't discourage you from replaying it because, while you will find some things aren't as great as you remember, you will also see new things about the game you didn't notice before that are extra cool, and you will appreciate the game in a new light.

    Despite all its flaws, I still think that The Dark Brotherhood is pretty good. The presentation is... not good, the battle system is also nothing to be proud of, but the story was really entertaining, especially considering stories in 99% of other Sonic games. It truly felt like the team cared about the story and tried to make characters feel more like characters, and not like a few basic traits.

      You can blame sonic 06 for that one which flat out ruined blaze as a character, making her a almost mute sidekick for silver.

She's basically been forgotten about entirely and it sucks considering how at the end of rush adventure, there was a lot of text saying 'we will meet again' etc. Looking back I think she did have a cameo in the ds version of Sonic Colours but it was only in like one very short cutscene.

It lacks depth and is definitely an RPG targeted at kids, but the combat, while flawed, was still fun for me for the most part

    NGL, I would be super down for remakes of Sonic Rush and Rush Adventure on the Switch. Those games were such great gems in the sea of inadequacy that plagued the Sonic franchise back then, and being able to experience them again with updated graphics and mechanics on a home console would be a treat.
    Plus, Blaze! Blaze was great! Easily the best new char since Shadow (even better I'd say, Shadow's only development was being an edgy Sonic). Even if I doubt they'll ever bring her back in a mainline role, simply reintroducing her to newer fans of the franchise would be good of SEGA.

    You forgot the best part of Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.

    I know how bad of a game Sonic Chronicles is, but it’s probably my biggest guilty pleasure game. I just love being able to play as all the different characters, the special moves were kinda cool and I love Shade the Echidna.

    As someone who's one of 2 100%'d games is Sonic Racing DS, I'm glad to see it get some love.
    Opa-Opa is eternally underrated.
