One of Sega's lesser known characters is better than Nintendo's most popular one, and Mario isn't even a blimp on Sonic's radar.
Hopefully you buy this game and experience something better for a change :)
Remember Sega does what Nintendon't.
I'm perfectly aware that it's impossible to reach any kind of agreement with you over anything unless someone gives you the full reason ... and that's ok.
I'm only going to say this ... Alex Kidd failed, there is no other way to say it ... it failed and it suffered a painful defeat. Don't get me wrong, i'm sure the games are ok, they just weren't Super Mario and that killed it for good for over 20 years. It's nice to have him back as a novelty but that's all it is now a novelty ... this game looks ok ... you know, like all other Alex Kidd games ... ok.
As for Sonic, same story ... it failed with audiences and with critics, we can discuss all you want but history has been written, hell even the first games weren't that good, it was succesfull because of the "attitude" ... there are some really great games here and there mixed with some really hot garbage.
Yes, Mario is overused ... far too much with some truly bad games ... but he is still the King when it comes to platforms, either 2D or 3D, there is no franchise that can even come close to how brilliant are the best Super Mario games. And that's a fact.
