first was sonic's appearence on a nintendo system, and now a mario/sonic crossover.

Even though that's the first time they've been in the same game together officially, it's not the only time they've ever been in the same game, since it happened in that Speedy Gonzales hack for the SNES, but of course, that doesn't count.

To tell you the truth, if this were ten years ago, then I probably would've cared. I'm just not all that interested in this, for some reason.

somehow I'm not really surprised... i even heard rumors that sega and nintendo might merge soon... heh that would work out nicely for me... no more having to buy a new system when ever a new phantasy star game comes out...

rumor debunked, about 6 years ago. nintendo dosn't want sega.

but if sega dies one day, nintendo might as well take their hedgehog. however that article is old, the dreamcast was alive (but barely) at the time.

edit:and sega, don't load this up with the bullshit. and you better not mess up nights JOD either.

Heh, I'd love to see Sonic doing, um, any of the swimming events.  Of course you'd probably play as Knux for those events or someone who can actually swim.

seeing eggman running the track in that trailer was funny to see. reminds me of playing as him mechless in SA2B.

there should be more official mario & sonic crossovers after this.

XD Yeah, but that depends on how well this one goes.  If it's a total flop then they've spawned another Naruto.  It sucks and probably wont die.  >_>

Here's another trailer:

It seems that many more characters have made their way into the game, and Blaze alone, was enough to get me interested. Well, that, INCLUDING the fact that Robotnik is racing on foot.

i'm assuming that these are prototype shots, as more than 20 characters are planned for the game. these shots show only 16.

if vector's in, then it's likely that charmy and espio will probably be in as developement continues.
