      Virgin Nintendo:

      - Still tries to market Mario and got stomped by Sega
      - Hates and tries hard to outsell newcomers and fail
      - Makes Mario 64 🙄
      - Elaborates everything
      - *Lives on to compete*
      (This is ironic, obviously.)

    This made me have a new found of respect for Sega and Sonic Team, they gave other companies the confidence they needed for their own gaming marketing.
    While Nintendo and Mario have saved the gaming industry, Sonic I feel was the one who opened the doors for everyone else to share a bit of spotlight.
    That gaming didn't just belong to Mario, but *everyone.*

    The Mr.Needlemouse thing is actually a mistranslation due to the Japanese word for hedgehog being needle and mouse when separated. Funnily enough it was made public when Yuji Naka saw this piece of trivia on a sega themed quiz and said he had never heard of Mr.Needlemouse, as sonics real proto name was simply Mr.Hedgehog. Otherwise really great video keep it up !

    I love Sonic and I always will. And this video made me realize a statement that was said: Sonic helped achieve a good future for the industry. The fact that Sonic 1 became a universally acclaimed gem and broke the gold streak that the NES and the new SNES had was crazy. Sonic also helped to inspire the PlayStations and later on the Xboxes. Plus, Sonic is the reason we have animal protagonists in gaming today. Crash, Spyro, Sly, Daxter, Ratchet and Clank, Kao and many more were all created thanks to this blue hedgehog.
    Say what you will about Sonic after 2002, but you gotta admit that Sonic and Sega were the reason for future companies being able to get a hand in changing the gaming industry for the better

I just liked playing those games a lot, like Assassin's Creed (especially A.S. Brotherhood idk why), Ice Era, Kung Fu Panda, Spyro games... and then for some reason I had this feeling giving me pressure inside my heart because of all the excitement I had by playing these games and I started LOVING them, and now I'm going crazy for Sonic! I think when I was little I played the games (Spyro etc.) too much that they don't work very well. In my Sonic Generations disc, Silver chapter/act can't be played so I won't be able to get every Chaos Emeralds, but I still enjoy playing it.

    I was 6 when i first started playing Sonic the Hedgehog (1991) in 2016, because my mom was 9 when the game dropped. i think i still got the genesis. i also have a copy of Sonic 2. then i got into more modern games around 1017 with Sonic Generations and Sonic Unleashed. Then, in 2019, i stopped for a bit to shift towards other games like Call of Duty. Then, 2021, i pick up my old Sonic 1 copy and begin playing again. man, without sonic my gaming history wouldn't be so expansive and just consist of CoD and Nintendo

    Nintendo and Sega were the two biggest video game company at the time. Then Half Life released.

    The first sonic games I played were Sonic 1 and Sonic 2 in the Master System. From what I remember Sonic 2 was released on the Master System before the Mega Drive version in the U.K. 🇬🇧

    Fun fact: The genesis and the NES could actually play recorded songs. Just it would be a big clip and it couldn't fit sonic's cartridge. Only few games used this.

    Basically, the colecovision of the market. Atari was more powerful with their 5200 supersystem (Just see some of the XE demos, and all XE/bit stuff is same as 5200) but coleco did better. Also, coleco had higher resolution but less color than 5200, along with inferior sound, same comparisons as Sega genesis to SNES. But both the coleco and 5200 ran at the same speed.

    I'd be interested in a video about how the paramount movies saved sonic in 2020 and beyond. We have a confirmed sonic cinematic universe, sonic prime, finally a new AAA game (frontiers) another show to star knuckles upcoming and the sonic movies were the most successful video game movies ever ensuring Sonic's suture is a lot more hopeful than 3 years ago
