But who really gives a shit about Sonic nowadays anyways? It doesn't sell like it use to.

And I don't buy that. Those IPs have their followings that will support new games.

WE know that. But executives are not gamers, they go by brand recognition. When the Dreamcast died, Sonic was still very big, much bigger than all the rest they had at hand. Nowadays they're practically forced to stick with Sonic because they let their old IPs fall into obscurity so much that many have been forgotten by now.

Thats what you do when you're in business. You take risks. I'm pretty sure if they brought back their old IPs and marketed them properly they would sell. Just the hype the original players would generate would be enough to get people interested like what we're seeing with Crash and FF Remake. Instead with each game they water down Sonic's relevance and clout.
