| Experimental42 said: The concept had promise, but they kneecapped it to get it out in time to ride the hype for the amazing cartoon premiere. It is a broken, incomplete mess that shouldn't have been released in this state, period. |
This is why Nintendo needs to buy Sega. Sega sorely needs quality QA, and Nintendo are the masters of QA in the videogame industry. Sega has a broad array of IPs that have solid fanbases, but which aren't being served, and Nintendo needs to have a broader array of genres and franchises to leverage (given the state of third party support). Sonic and Mario belong together, as rivals and partners in more than just Smash and Olympics games, and Sonic needs to finally have a game that is worthy of being considered 3D Mario's rival (as classic Sonic was for 2D Mario). And a number of other Sega characters would do great as Smash characters, too (starting with Alex Kidd, whose janken-based actions would make for a great set of attacks).
I have hopes that there'll be proper patches for the game. If they happen, I just might get the game (it was on my must-buy list, but I was assuming that Nintendo would be applying their QA to the game, since there's some sort of deal for them). I already got Lost World.
