The rivaly was at its strongest when Sonic's games were just as good as Mario's. So this is a love letter to those who know the Mario/Sonic rivalry the best.

Negative Nancy? I prefer Realistic Rita.

I'm aware of my roots, and an old skool Sonic fan...however, I just don't understand the appeal of a character that's so far past his prime and has so many bad games under his name, that it not only isn't funny...it's kinda sad.

Then again, I don't understand people that still like Star Wars either, so maybe it's just me. Now, back to the regularly scheduled Sega blow-job-fest!

Nope, you are a jingoistic jamal. Or maybe a brobdignagian billy.

You and vinny are extreme downers in almost every single post on this site. Every so often, you might say something positive, but you typically take the Eeyore approach.

first post!!! ( I really hate those people )

I would be very interested in knowing the back story of this deal, when sonic got finalized for brawl, got to think this came out of the mario sonic olympic game negotiations.

just curious if sonic is going to get any face time on the cover art work.

what other sega characters would be cool to see in brawl? I wouldn't mind seeing shinobi myself.

Down B is his spin attack, and Super Sonic is his final smash.

This is great news, but it would be nice to see Pac-Man, Megaman, Cloud and maybe the odd character from one of the big fighting franchises.

Cloud's never been on a Nintendo console, so he's not a possibility. Mega Man and Pac-Man are very slight possibilities.

I know, but it's nice to dream - Nintendo have been getting more buddy buddy with Sega, Namco, Capcom and Square Enix lately, it'd be nice to see Smash Bros. benefit.

Ah yes, Sonic is finally in Brawl! I'm so happy this day came, I think I shed a tear just now. Now I can finally duke it out with Sonic versus Mario, '90s style. YES!!

Now all we need is for Nintendo to make a deal with capcom to make the sequel, Marvel vs Capcom Vs SNK Vs Smash Brothers, AKA Super Smash Brothers Holy Fucking Shit This is Way Too Fucking Much.

Quite frankly, I have no idea why people are getting upset about this news. If you don't like Sonic, then don't use him. If you hate him, here's your chance to beat the snot out of him. If you're a Sonic fanboy, then beat the snot out of a Sonic hater on the totally-announced-nearly-a-month-ago online play that does not require friend codes if you're OK with anonymity.

Its official.

Its not a hoax.

Deal with it, lamer.

2. cel shaded link (again, with his own moves, like wind control and guided boomerang)
3.MUDKIP (HE NEEDS TO BE THE BEST AND NEVER LOSE, EVAR!)

Been waiting a decade for Sega to bring a side-scrolling Sonic to a console... and Nintendo finally does it.
