This legitimately brought tears to my eyes. Sitting in my dad's lap with a the controller upside down and playing sonic 2. My father passed in 2000 but bought me sonic games whenever he could. And this, This just brings back the fondest of memories. Thanks to those who put in the effort to keep fond memories alive and to create new ones worth remembering.

[@wildpawz8894]

I like the little reference in the beginning where sonic's ears were bunny ears but soon erased to be hedgehog ears as a presumed reference to sonic's early concept being a bunny instead of a hedgehog.

[@memeelfman324]

Roasty Toasty and the was bunnies and other stuff

[@ElenitaTurk]

Sonic early desing was also an Armadillo too. But they save it to Mighty, for this reason Mighty and Sonic are pretty similar between them, the same goes to Tails and Ray (It's like they are an alternated versions)

[@TJ255]

And here’s something even MORE sketchy (pun intended). Knuckles’ Chaotix features Mighty the Armadillo as a playable character. Have you ever noticed that his sprites look similar to Sonic’s from Sonic 1, 2, & CD? That’s because in Knuckles’ Chaotix prototype, Sonic Crackers, Sonic & Tails were the only characters in it. And Mighty appears in the very first slot on the character select screen after the title screen. Strange, isn’t it? Sonic usually appears first. That means that...Mighty in KC is a re-skinned Sonic! This makes them even MORE similar!

[@LovelyYT]

YES!

[@segaj.r2006]

Wildpawz I wish Sega made a game about that very first drawing they made in 1990. Otherwise, I hope someone makes it in Dreams

[@MagnificantSasquatch]

To think, the man who started out making a comic that riffed the shit out of Sonic, giving us Nipples the Enchilada and Original the Character, went on to help make one of the best miniseries Archie Sonic ever had...and is now doing animation work for an official game. You've come a long way, my dude. All the respect in the world.

[@DoctorReflux]

Yep not only that, he also did a bit of sprite sheet fan work for sonic yeaaars back

Indeed. *_Fuck_* Jon Goldwater for breaking ties with one of Archie's most profitable series for twenty years because he just wants to divert all focus to a brand and characters that have been irrelevant for thirty years, by the way. Oh hey but at least they have Riverdale, because teen dramadies are totally the hip and in thing these days amirite--

[@fudgehead333]

He used to make Sonic Argh!!! That was my favorite sprite comic back in the day.

But then...modern Sonic was never in mania but...classic is? So he meets modern but modern never was in this game and never went through it...

[@Raven-626-]

Classic's future is great- well, Forces kinda ruined it but, we still have good tunes, except for Faded Hill's synths which scream Sonic 4 more painfully than those dying cats. Though, I could've sworn the synths in Mania!/Time Trials are the same in Modern Sonic's songs.

[@britishpie7665]

yeah that's what I'm trying to say, he doesn't talk in any of the old games but his character design (old games, mainly speaking cd design) and the way he acts is charming in a way. I'm not saying we don't need a voice actor for him but its just nice without it.

[@benreay6698]

Actually, Sonic has a voice clip in Sonic CD if you wait 3 minutes without touching the controller

[@britishpie7665]

I was expecting someone would point this out, what he says there didn't mean anything to his character (it was more of a small Easter egg) . I just mean overall he was mostly known for not talking but (like I said earlier) you can see everything off him just by appearance and actions.

[@britishpie7665]

not just that, you can see the type of person he is by looking at this trailer. He is impatient, can be intimidating but can be loveable and very lively :)

jgould30 I'm not sure because 20$ is a high price for a best of with a few new stages. I'll still buy it to encourage SEGA for the "real" 2D sonic returns but just because I'm a huge fan. I don't think that a normal person will spend 20$ into a 2D sonic.

[@blodia_vulcan4361]

Valentin Kropp maybe not. Old Sega cartridges used to sell for $60-$70 bucks for only a handful of levels. I think old school and newer Sonic fans will be happy to drop $20 for the nostalgic and for something to do before Forces hits stores.

[@yibby7]

Valentin Kropp if you think 20 dollars is expensive you are a poor ass guy. We are getting a new 2d classic game with over like maybe 12 zones high quality gameplay and music and most likely animated cutscences this is a bargain

[@xDD90x]

Demigod Quagsire I respect your preference of Forces, but I'd just like to express that comments like yours really sadden me - a fan who grew up playing the original titles. Hearing things like this indicates that there are people who actually prefer what Sega has done with this beloved franchise over their original creation, which means they will continue to take Sonic in this direction. It's not that I don't appreciate them making Sonic Mania and bringing back classic Sonic in Generations and Forces. Or that I dislike the idea of a 3D Sonic game. It's just that when Sega redesigned Sonic, they made the games so fundamentally different to the originals in nearly every way that they basically said farewell to the fans of the classics. I'll never understand why Sega felt they should rebuild Sonic from the ground up instead of trying to evolve the successful formula and bring it into the 3rd dimension, and how they now feel the best thing to do is to split the character in two essentially. I can certainly see that there is somewhat of an appeal to the current 3D Sonic gameplay, but it's just not the same Sonic that fans of the original gameplay are craving. Sorry, just venting some built-up frustration is all... I'll stop here before I get too carried away.

You know i'm a huge fan of Sonic 2D too and i'm exciting by his return, i don't see the point to insult me. I'm just saying that 20$ is a little too expensive for only 6 new zones. 15$ would have been a better price because i've friends who already said to me that they will not buy it at this price since they are just regular gamer and not sonic huge fans.

[@commandoeclipse2698]

Dick Dastardly You are the only other person that I have seen -aside from myself- that treat Knuckles like a normal character instead of seeing him as a laughingstock.

[@Raven-626-]

I kinda want to tell those it's not the fact he's gullible the he believed in Robutnik in Sonic 3 and Knuckles at some point you may see a mural where sonic is fighting Robutnik but at first glance it is unclear which side is the evil one if you don't have prior knowledge of the 2. I still see him as a gullible, hot-headed, character still.

I liked him in the adventure games too, but 06 onwards everyone treats him as a dumbass.

[@partyro23]

As a 19 year old who was utterly obsessed with Sonic as a kid (he was my childhood hero), I can't quite accurately describe how I felt after watching this trailer (and then rewatching it twice more). I experienced a pure and beautiful joy I haven't felt in at least ten years, and I felt like that kid again who adored Sonic (and still does now) and looked up to him as their role model. That was a deeply and incredibly special moment for me, and I will treasure that for a very long time. Thanks so much Sega, and everyone involved in the making of this game. I truly hope it's a success and I can't wait for it to be released (especially as it's five days before my birthday)!! And happy 26th birthday Sonic!! Keep running and stay way past cool!!! :D

[@JoaoPedroStylish]

I'm crying here, even though this song isn't that old, it reminds me of all the moments I spent with Sonic The Hedgehog and his gang, nostalgia hit me, I had never cried with THIS, but it seems There's a first time for everything, and I'm grateful to be a fan of this happy, good and fun franchise.

[@davidjohnson6087]

If this is what stopped S3aK from mobile phones in all honesty I think it was a worthwhile trade.

[@RomuloTheBrazilian]

It probably has to do with the S3 original soundtrack, which had some of the songs composed by Michael Jackson, but whatever... The only thing that prevents me from purchasing Mania is that it won't be released for Android... at least for now

Rusty Rom Games They have alternative version of soundtrack in Sonic & Knuckles Collection. They wouldn't have to compose anything nor fight against lawyers.

[@BaitosReal]

Gnidel I don't think legal issues are really the problem, it's more that Sega never let them finish it. I don't know why, it was a pretty dumb decision, but I don't think legal issues were the problem. Ports of Sonic 3 (Classic Collection, UGC, etc.) still had the old music. But who really knows.

Oh heck, yeah you are right! I guess the animators have completely forgotten about that, which is quite surprising since The Taxman, who works on this new game, also worked on the updated versions of Sonic CD. YO SEGA!

[@EnzoPinheiro]

It took a while for SEGA to finally realize that this is what we all wanted. If everything goes ok, I can keep my hope to also see the next Golden Axe and Streets of Rage in the future.

[@supersani2456]

So the animation can continue two ways: Sonic Mania: Sonic, Tails, & Knuckles go to the next floor without any unexpected surprises. Sonic Mania Plus: Mighty stops the elevator before it fully closes, and Sonic lets him and Ray in. If you want, you can even add this third way (even though the animation for it is fanmade): Amy?: Amy stops the elevator, but Sonic doesn't let her in and closes the elevator on her.

[@lancelnce]

Brand 127 Sonic will regreat later when they grow up and Amy got boobs and don't want Sonic anymore so Sonic will get depressed and don't run anymore and went missing so it's the plot of a new Tails game: *Sonic is missing* [Spoiler] theres a new character named *⊥ails* .

[@victory1014]

Ahmed Adheem To bad I can't get it when it's released.

[@stormcutter59]

Ahmed Adheem Sonic isn't back as far as I'm concerned, it's simply getting a break from the incompetence of SEGA. Im tired of people saying that. If Forces is anything to look at, it is that SEGA still have a VERY shaky grasp on how Sonic should be handled. I don't count Mania too much really because it still harbors on the only thing SEGA knows how to do somewhat right, and that's nostalgia. And they aren't even making it so that tells you something about the people that know Sonic, cause it isn't SEGA that's for sure

Glad to see I'm not the only one who watches this often! Sonic 1 was the first game I ever got when I was four years old. Now I'm 28 and this (and the fantastic game that I play constantly) make me so happy. Thanks Sega for seeing the light, and giving us a game we can give to our kids!

[@PizzaMozaPineaple]

Maishida i agree ! :D 😍

[@LockeLynx]

Maishida Actually, that's not a bad idea. what of they did the series that would eventually lead up to Sonic growing up/maturing into the modern Sonic that would lead up to the Adventure series. So it takes place after Mania, takes (SOME, not all) bits/mentions Sonic 4, like what happened to Death Egg MK. II/Little Planet and Metal Sonic, but that's it. Then it would eventually lead up to Sonic Adventure 1. I know there are VERY mixed feelings for Sonic 4 due to bad music/stages/physics/controls. which is why I said they mention on the short story in it. the events happened, but only the important stuff.

[@uexkeru]

Since when was one Sonic cartoon ever in continuity with any others? The redesign of Sonic was a retcon to a continuity where he always looked like that. A retro Sonic reboot would have to have its own continuity that fits everything looking like Mickey Mouse invading an anime
