Be warned, the paragraph after the comic description is me standing on a soap box.

Okay, I gotta admit, this comic is a manifestation of my nerd rage, but I always try to channel that kind of thing in a positive way. How can Sonic's 20th anniversary game not get a wii port?! Don't give me the hedgehog engine crap because a very minor graphical downgrade would allow it to run just fine, like Sonic Colors did. Think of this, there have been 11 Sonic games made exclusive for nintendo consoles (not counting re-releases of old games) which include pretty much all of the best reviewed and received. In that time there have been 4 games NOT made for nintendo consoles, the most prominent example being the now infamous "Sonic '06" which was made for Sonic's 15th anniversary. I can't believe Sonic Team would repeat that mistake from 5 years ago. I'm sure generations will be an awesome game, but people who own XBox's and PS3's probably won't be interested in it because they'll have memories of '06 and no particular attachment to Sonic, since it's not an FPS or gritty sandbox crime game. Wow this sounds so much like a fanboy rant, but is it so much to ask that I can count on a series to have all of it's games come out on one console, or at least be TRULY multi-platform?

I've noticed that people seem to have an unusually narrow definition of what a Sonic game is. I've received comments and arguments from people who say that games like Sonic Adventure, Black Knight, even Sonic colors aren't "true" Sonic games because only pure side scrolling platformers count. WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP! I only ever hear this stupid argument coming from Sonic games, nobody ever claimed that Star Fox Adventure wasn't a Star Fox game, or Zelda 2 wasn't a Zelda game, or Paper Mario wasn't a Mario game...well I can go on and on about Metroid, resident evil, and a bunch of other series that make games in more than one basic genre. The fact is that every game Sonic stars in is a Sonic game, just as any other series is defined by its star.

I agree on the final paragraph of the description but I can't say I agree with much on the gigantic first one.
I honestly don't give a shit what consoles the games are being released for and if I read your text right you're implying it will bomb ONLY because it's not being downgraded for a Nintendo console?

Is the real reason behind this the fact that the Wii is getting absolutely nothing worth buying this year? Hmm?

@ SpaceFoxy

I never said the game would bomb, I'm just saying most of the people who like Sonic have wiis, and that's where most of the new games have been, then this one comes along, ignoring the most profitable part of the fanbase, it seems like a huge waste. Also it's not like I'm gonna drop over $300 to buy a PS3/360 just for this game, and aside from little big planet there's nothing on those other consoles I'm all that interested in playing, so it simply isn't worth it.

I'd say this boils down to fanboyism towards a console then. I have both wii and 360 and most of my Sonic games are for the 360, actually most of my games are for the 360. Wii seems to have gotten the worst of the bunch (Secret Rings... and the weird version of Unleashed which wasn't even the whole game)
I don't understand where you get the idea from that people who own 360 don't like Sonic? All of my friends who are Sonic fans have a 360 over a Wii. I always saw it the other way around.

not counting releases of the older games, there have been 3 sonic games on the 360, and 2 on the PSP. The Wii has had 4, and the DS another 4, that's not counting the previous console generation or the spin offs like All Stars Racer, the olympic games, or tennis. But really it's not because of console or nintendo fanboyism that I make the argument, it's that I only have the one console, as I'm sure many other gamers do, and it's irritating every time a game from my favorite series (to be clear, I'm a total SONIC fanboy) doesn't come out on the system I own.

Also, this is VERY debatable, but a pretty strong argument can be made that the Wii version of Unleashed is better than the HD version. The HD had better graphics and more daytime stages, but was sadly weighed down by baggage like the hub world, the QTE tornado stages, uncooperative camera and combat system in the night time stages, and the medal collecting crap. I'm not saying that that makes the HD version a bad game, but it makes it tons more frustrating to play.

I can't say I agree with anything about Unleashed you just said but it's everyone's own opinion.
360 had more content and more reply value than the Wii spinoff which wasn't even the whole game.

Sure Generations would be a good title to save the Wii from it's party game console reputation.
It hasn't gotten anything interesting in ages and it's not looking good.
From what I've heard even Nintendo's washing their hands off the whole console and developing a new one.
THAT is why Generations is not going on the Wii.

This argument is pointles, sonic fanbois (and girls *points to me :3*) will toss as much ¥ as they can for a system if they dont currently own. generations would be like unleashed was on the wii which was a joke compaired to the Ps3/360 versions.

Sonic Generations will be good and if not we will bitch about it like we did 06 till sega makes a new game

but it wont be bad (hopefully no voice script failing -_-)

It's like saying that Megaman Legends isn't a Megaman game just because it has 3d gameplay, as opposed to pure 2d sections...
