Sonic the Hedgehog mobile surpasses 8 million downloads


Sega Mobile says that its version of Sonic the Hedgehog has reached the milestone of being downloaded 8 million times since it launched in early 2006. Verizon Wireless has seen the most success from the $8 download of Sonic, with the company stating that the game has made a "substantial contribution" to the company's sales these past two years. Sega Mobile plans to introduce Sonic 2, Sonic Spinball and Sonic at the Olympic Games this year.

For those keeping track, this would be our second mobile success story of the day. We got this weird feeling ... could somebody check on Alderaan? Oh, really, not there you say? That's too bad.
