It is hard for me to see how people can rank A Link to the Past above Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic is now one of the most iconic video game characters of all time.  He has transcended gaming, and become significant in popular culture. He's certainly not on Mario's level, but nobody is. Sonic is in a very solid second place though, with nobody nipping at his heels in third. He came to life with this game in 1991. The way I see it, that makes Sonic the Hedgehog many times more significant than any of the other games in this poll.

There ofamy great games in this poll. And if we were voting in December 1991, I could make a case for many of them. But, we're voting in September 2023, and we have the ability to see the last 32 years of history. And with that in mind, it is painfully obvious that Sonic is the biggest deal. 

Easy...his games suck.
