I thought the time of "Original Character, Do Not Steal" fanartists already came? It was called Sonic Forces. tongue

I think it's the fact 32X is harder to emulate, plus Chaotix....not really being that great a game costs investment in giving it a full on remake like they did with Sonic CD. I think Headcanon even stated that a Chaotix remake likely wouldn't be a good investment since it would involve more tweaking than SEGA would allow to make it a remarkable game.

Wait. What's stopping other Sonic fangame makers from doing their own fan remake of Chaotix?

It kinda sucks that the only way to play Chaotix is to either spend a few hundred dollars on a 32X and a copy of the game or go through the unofficial methods.

I think actually Chaotix hasn’t been rereleased for the exact same reason as Saturn Sonic 3D Blast: both consoles are tricky to emulate.

I also legitimately forget that "Blu-Rays" and "CD's" are different things, so yeah, my Sonic CD joke was factually wrong. [lol] They're both discs, c'mon. [lol]

Sonic The Comic Amy is in the Ambiguously Bi comic book section. In the Sonic The Comic Online Exit Sonic story which is done by the original comic writers she is raising a son with Tekno.

I would believe that Chaotix not getting a rerelease is because of emulation issues. Which seems strange since it's not like unofficial 32X emulation doesn't exist so Sega should be able to make their own, but on the other hand they may not see it as worth the effort since Chaotix is pretty much the only thing on the console anyone would be interested in revisiting. Everything else in the console's small library is obscure junk or subpar ports of games on other systems.

Actually, ignoring any issues of there being better ports for some games, Sonic Origins adding all those Game Gear games means it covers almost the entire library of Classic era Sonic games. It's only missing Chaotix, 3D Blast, Sonic R, and the arcade games (SegaSonic and Fighters). And Sonic R does have a PC port that's has improvements over the original Saturn version, so hypothetically Sega should be able to easily rerelease it?

Maybe in a future collection?

  • I could definitely see another "Gems Collection" of Chaotix, 3D Blast, R, SegaSonic, Fighters, and Sonic Shuffle (a Dreamcast game) someday. Hell, throw in Ristar to make it an even 7 gems. And if you want to push it to 10, throw in Vectorman 1 and 2, and Nights 1.
  • I could also see a "Portable/Pocket Collection" of Pocket Adventure, Advance 1-3, Battle, Pinball Party, Rush, Rush Adventure, and possibly Rivals and Rivals 2.
    • [down]Added. I mistakenly thought it was already mostly a port, but apparently it did have enough of its own layouts. It was still on my mind though, hence the title. Also, Pocket Adventure was where Dimps got their start, so it'd be a mistake to miss it.
  • Then if SEGA really wanted to dig, a "Sonic Stories Collection" of Shadow, Secret Rings, Black Knight, Riders, the Boom trilogy, and Nights 2, possibly with 06 (assuming they go back and fix bugs).

Dimps put in a lot of underappreciated work into the series. It's weird to think it has been almost 10 years since they did a Sonic game.

SegaSonic the Hedgehog is hard to rerelease for the same reasons.

Appearently there are licencing rights for the Advance games, although I imagine it's not that hard to emulate the DS games (incluiding Colors)

Nice art with Elise and Silver. Glad to see Sega acknowledge her in such a nice way.

Woke: Sally was in fact gay for Amy.

I thought we didn't want Amy to copy Sonic.

Digging that style for humans

Speaking of, when's the last time we saw a human that wasn't Eggman in the games? It's been a while. It has to be before Colors, I think.

Thanks to TailsTube, we know the official line on humans is that Earth is a planet that hosts both animal folk and humans, who just live in different regions, so they're there, they're just offscreen for now.

So what I'm getting is that I'm wondering if art projects like the isekai double as Sonic Team brainstorming design ideas for characters we haven't seen in a while, and if that might include non-Eggman humans in general.

We are probably going to Super Amy, so how many Super form characters will that be in the game series;

  • Super Sonic
  • Super Tails
  • Super Knuckles
  • Super Mecha Sonic MKII
  • Super Shadow
  • Super Silver
  • Super Ix
  • Super Ray
  • Super Mighty
  • Super Amy

  • Plus Blaze has Burning Blaze which is her universe's version of a Super form.

I might have missed at least one Super form.
