Astrobot is just Sackboy reskinned. They can continue the same style of games without having to make a ton of skins for sackboy like they’ve had to in the past. Same gameplay just less cosmetic work for them.
I think if Sony tried to have a mascot now it would just not work since they’ve spent so long without having one definitively. But I would think that sackboy would be a good one.
All 3 of the original games, along with every spinoff, have had their servers shut down permanently, 1 and 2 since 2021, and 3 went down permanently at the start of this year. The only functional game in the series is Sackboy, which isn't even a mainline entry. LBP is a dead franchise that Sony has not put any actual effort into whatsoever since the end of the PS3's life cycle.
If Sony had bought out Naughty Dog before the Universal deal, Crash Bandicoot would have been the PlayStation Mascot. These days the only character to fit the bill would be Astro Bot because he embldies all things PlayStation
Me personally. It feels like sackboy is Playstations mascot. But sony left littlebigplanet to die and sackboy lost his franchise recently this year when the littlebigplanet 3(PS4) Servers finally shut down. He really would've fit as a mascot but sony destroyed Sackboys franchise when littlebigplanet 3 came out And the Playstation 4s release. So i feel like astrobot is the mascot If littlebigplanet was alive today and had care into it Then sackboy But yeah astrobots the mascot right now
Crash was their mascot, without him Playstation may have fallen at the starting line,Sony staked everything on Crash and if he wasn't so loveable, goofy and had arguebly the best platforming trilogy of all time we probably wouldn't have Jak and Daxter,Ratchet And Clank, Nathan Drake Etc Personally i believe Playstation's mascot flip-flops a lot, it's whoever seems right in the moment, someone once said "Sony exists on a What-Have-You-Done-For-Me-Lately agenda" which in my opinion is why we haven't seen Sly Cooper or Jak And Daxter in an eternity.
For me personally, the top five PlayStation mascots would be. 1. Sackboy 2. Astrobot 3. Crash Bandicoot 4. Ratchet and Clank 5. Kratos Some others like Spyro, Cloud, Nathan Drake and Jak & Daxter are close runner ups.
Littlebigplanet is a dead franchise though, anyone who thought Sackboy was the mascot is just outright out of the loop when it comes to how Playstation has treated the brand. All the servers for every game have been entirely shut down, over a decade's worth of user levels deleted, online co op is gone, last game was a spinoff that was just Super Mario 3D World with a LBP aesthetic, last actual game was the rushed disaster that was LBP 3 that came out at the start of the PS4's release, can't even buy the old games easily anymore, 1 and 2 have been delisted from the Playstation Store completely. There _has not been_ any _actual_ support for the LBP brand since the _end of the PS3._
not seeing toro in the thumbnail but seeing him be the ***first*** one you talk about was a pleasant surprise, I almost expected that you'd leave him out somehow
Since Japanese culture has become way more mainstream in the United States, I think this is the perfect time for Sony to reintroduce Toro Inoue to the west
I believe Astro is more synonymous with the PlayStation brand going forward. The rest of these (excluding Toro, he is reserved as a mascot for the japanese market of PlayStation, he also still fits, but is rarely talked about) would've been great fits, but didn't really fit the feel of a PlayStation mascot, personally.

PlayStation has seen so many iconic characters. It's a party
Nintendo definitively has Mario, Link, DK(sometimes), Samus and more! PlayStation is behind the game and it’s sad! I think Nintendo should have three mascots that are definitively on their consoles that are slapped around all marketing for their consoles. Those should be Crash, Astro-bot, and Sackboy. These are phenomenal characters and I can even see them working well in games together. I love all three of those characters. And honestly, I think if PlayStation were to of gotten a hand of Crash back then he would be in a better state now. Another one that could do phenomenal is a franchise such as Skylanders. And if they built the character reader/portal into the console or controllers it would be crazy!
Next time he will wait for a ps5 new game 2 or 4 Month And another question ps5 New Dandy or Sega or Super Nintendo or Nintendo 64 And then Xbox or Xbox 360 🤔
Toro Inoue officially, but I think the torch has been passed to AstroBot
I would love to see an astrobot X Sackboy collab someday.
Astrobot is just Sackboy reskinned. They can continue the same style of games without having to make a ton of skins for sackboy like they’ve had to in the past. Same gameplay just less cosmetic work for them.
Astro Bot is making his mark

SONY switch their mascot every gen

@@Milky-Hazard they have many characters to pick
It would work

Then sackboy
But yeah astrobots the mascot right now
Astro bot is already the mascot
Ratchet and Clank is also there Mascot
Crash was their mascot, without him Playstation may have fallen at the starting line,Sony staked everything on Crash and if he wasn't so loveable, goofy and had arguebly the best platforming trilogy of all time we probably wouldn't have Jak and Daxter,Ratchet And Clank, Nathan Drake Etc

Toro Inoue
Im gonna go with astro bot

I don’t disagree with anything you said but Sackboy Big Adventure was a great game and I will forever stand on that 😤😤

Horizon is like a hot woman. Beautiful on the outside with nothing else to offer
Since Japanese culture has become way more mainstream in the United States, I think this is the perfect time for Sony to reintroduce Toro Inoue to the west
AstroBot
Bro your videos are so good you deserve more views and subscribers
Thanks for watching!!
up until a few years ago, a case could've been made that Kazuma Kiryu fit the mold for a Playstation mascot
It’s sack boy and the ape escape, there the mascot, also Astro bot

PlayStation has seen so many iconic characters. It's a party
This video was posted a week before Astro Bot was revealed, meaning Astro was the true mascot the whole time.
Oh yeah that Astro Bot reveal gave HUGE mascot vibes
