I do recall I mentioned the exact same thing. Sega hasn't "gone mainstream" so much as they are trying to go mainstream AGAIN. Perhaps you might recall that Sonic was CREATED to be a "to the EXTREME" answer to Mario? That was the entire point, he was faster, better, COOLER, than silly plumber boy. You seem to forget the console war of LEGEND. The one where the battle was about image, about who was 16 bit-er than the other, but mainly, and most amazingly, about who made the better games. An amazing concept these days, but the constant battle to outdo the competition via superior games resulted in what may be called the greatest generation EVARS, to some anyway.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
