The first movie is just okay, it was salvaged from the disaster it was originally set to be, but the movie itself is still not even that much of a Sonic thing, or very good either. I watched it on the movie teather back then and was midly pleased.

I haven't seem 2 or 3 but those sound like way better movies and mostly about Sonic, should be pretty decent recommendations to watch.

They get better with each movie, with 3 easily being the best of the 3. 3 was still a flawed but kind of good movie.

4 could be the best one yet. 

I was hyped for 2 with the tease on 1, but ended up just not there to watch, I used to go to the movie theater every week but it has been years since I last went there.

I do want to watch it someday tho, but I wonder when I'll have the chance.

Well, hearing all this talk of the Sonic Movie, maybe I’ll just watch through the trilogy this week as I eat my dinner. That’d be fun, I think.

Update One— Got through the first hour of the first Sonic the Hedgehog movie… I’m not much of a movie watcher so I have no idea what to say lol. It’s an enjoyable film. I appreciate the slow pacing in comparison to the Mario Movie, though it definitely feels like it leans a little too hear on being a children’s movie first and a Sonic movie second. It’s a creative adaption, incorporating Dr. Eggman and Sonic into our reality in a way which I think is super fitting. I’ll maybe have more to say after tomorrow once I’m fully finished with the film.

Sonic Frontiers Definitive Edition might be coming. It badly needs a Switch 2 version.

(!!) That’s be great to see! And while they’re at it, Sega should also do a Superstars NS2 Edition. As a PC gamer who sometimes prefers physical ownership, I would 100% pick up an NS1 copy of both games if they got a patch.

I wonder why you sold your PS5 then.

You could literally just pick it up on PS5 and get both a NS2 (or better) version quality and have ownership, plus also decent deals on those physical media you would buy to have onwership.

PC allows you to access any game from any system at zero cost so long as you already own it… so as far as ownership is concerned, PC is far better than PS5/NS2. That said, Steam is definitely a tricky situation, as I don’t feel like I own any of the games I purchase there. But at the same time, I’ll be able to emulate these games regardless come ten years or so… so who cares if I physically own the game?

(In short: I’m very confused lol! Dropping PS5 was 100% the right call though, as all that gave me was modern AAA releases, but where my interests lie are in older games. On top of the far superior performance and greater sense of ownership of non-modern games, it makes sense for me to have moved to PC. I would like to have a physical copy of modern games I really cherish, though mostly just because I like having a tangible object of memorabilia, less so to have any form of legitimate ownership.)

So just buy the NS1 version of Sonic Superstarts and Origins Plus and play them on PC, why would you need to wait for NS2 version if you are going to play the best version of it on PC for free regardless as long as you have ownership of it somewhere else?

PC does have a lot of strong points, onwership is definitely not one of them since Steam pretty much dominated it.

My strategy is: Purchase NS1 versions (unless NS2 versions are on-cart) and boot them up on NS2 with the patch. I get them accessible If I wanna play them on PC, I’ll dump the ROM files and run through Ryujinx. As far as ownership is concerned, honestly I don’t even know what that word means anymore in the context of video games: Physical media decays with time, digital console storefront and PC servers will go down with time, the closest you can really get to “owning” a game is by having access to online resources which provide a copy of the game’s files and an emulator.
