HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I CANT STOP LAUGHING!!! If it did this horrible in US... Japan must be terrible! Okay, okay, it isn't that funny... yes it is! :D Oh God, Sega please release decent sonic games on PS4 and Xbone again. The Nintendo deal curse is officially over.

Hilarious how you try to blame this on Nintendo. You do know that every 3D Sonic game has sucked major ass right? Sonic Colors is mostly 2D and Sonic Generations is barely 4 hours long. Sega is the only one to blame for these 3 shitty games.

Hey, hey calm down bro. The deal is over with Nintendo, now they can move on. Nintendo has always been sort of training ground for Sega. Sonic BN, Sonic SR, Sonic Riders ZG, you know. But even the multiplats suck. Sonic Generations was short but at least it wasn't Sonic Boom. I know sega is to blame too, did you read my post or just the last part? I know that one company is never fully responsible. Take a Nintendo pill, wait, don't do that you'll hallucinate.

The point I'm making is that Nintendo's not to blame at all. They were probably too kind even with the free DLC of Yoshi and Zelda in Lost Worlds (which were arguably the best levels of the game lol). I hope Nintendo takes revenge on Sega somehow for this "betrayal". There's simply no evidence that Nintendo had any hand in the development of these 2 games (Sonic Lost Worlds and Sonic Boom).

Right, they didn't develop them but the 3 game partnership I believe had an effect on the development of the games. I agree, Nintendo didn't have a thing to do with developing the actual game but one can only think that the game development process was altered when the deal was a go.

Me thinks Sega wanted to get this deal over as soon as possible and that's why they gave the Sonic franchise to an unknown developer.

Wonder what'll happen to they show, if they'll even let the season end before canceling it.

Depends on the ratings. Pacman and the ghostly adventures got a sequel and the game did mediocre at best. But it had movies and a tv show I believe. Also it had merchandising such as toys, clothing, etc.

 

If sonic does the same thing it could be different. Just hope the development was not too costly.


With the documented development woes etc, I wonder if Sega just put this out anyway to get out of their Nintendo exclusivity contract. It's a shame mind, I really loved Sonic: Lost World, even if the press didn't for the most part. I thought Boom had a lot of potential, just not as a Sonic game (looked more like a love letter to Sony's PS2 platformers).



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.
