How hype are you for Sonic Mania?

How hype are you for Sonic Mania?

I want to ____ that fox

One of your traps misfires and catches Tails

What do you do?

not that excited

ill play it, buta 2d sonic can only be so good

the same thing that happen in the last Dagasi pic.

Getting hyped for games is retarded, just enjoy the now.

I will admit though, Sonic Mania is one of the few games coming in 2017 I'm even aware about.

Not much. I'll buy it and beat it but I doubt it will be good enough for a second run.

bond burger?

We got an expected price yet? I feel like that will be my deciding factor.

hype as fuck

Is there any new footage out?
The saloon one was the last one they put out that I saw.
As someone who only really enjoyed the first 3 Sonics(+Knuckles), I'm extremely excited.

I want to play it, but I keep forgetting it exists.

>play a game
>really enjoy it
>forget about it
>replay it
>it's like the first time again

What's the best 2D Sonic game?

Sonic Advance 3

very much hype

I'm more hype for Sonic Utopia.

I've always been partial to Sonic 2.
I like Sonic 3, but I owned it on PC, when you arrive at Carnival night there's no good indication of what you're supposed to do on the spinning cylinders. On Genesis all you had to do was press up and down, however; on PC you had to hold tab. There was no indication in the manual or anywhere in the game that this was even a control option. Many people never made it past as a result including me.

Tails is my favorite Sonic character, he reminds me of Klonoa

>hyped for a tech demo
But why?

>t. born after 1992

because Sega will hire them and it will end up as a complete project.

I played and enjoyed Sonic Advance 1, but didn't they introduce some weird partner system or some other useless shit in that one?

3 had the Partner system.

It's okay I guess.

...

And I was starting to clean my screen until I notice my mistake.

...

I'm excited for a new Sonic game but also disappointed that it doesn't have the feature to mix and match between characters. I want to be a team of Sonic & Knuckles.

Wish I could email Whitehead about that somehow.

>implying we won't have some mods like that on PC.

A character select that isn't so restrictive should really be a basic thing at this point, especially when they redid the entire engine.

My only guess as to why Whitehead didn't do it is because he simply hasn't thought about it yet.

...

>he simply hasn't thought about it yet.

You realize Taxman had to make several ports before Sega trusted him with the development of an actual game, right?

Those physics. I can't believe that after all these years it looks like they're finally gonna get it right again.

I don't like how there isn't any animation when he's at max speed.

>Tails has a better animation for running in the air
Fucking finally, that shit was so awkward

if it was only new zones and didn't feel like a romhack, i'd be a lot more excited

There is a max speed animation for running, but maybe they should squash the ball sprite when he's going really fast.

There's not a single rom hack on this earth that's as impressive as Sonic Mania but go ahead, be that way.

At the least just have the reflection shimmer slightly to give the illusion of motion. Without any animation he looks like he's completely still, i.e. not spinning.

>Sega will hire them
Not happening.

Oh if that's what you're complaining about that's just the frame rate of the youtube video this webm was pulled from. That always happens with flickering sprites.

>tfw it will probably be great but I am now to old to care

Pretty hype.

>tfw to old for video games

>not two old four video games

...

I was 8/10 back in its announcement, and the hype went into 6/10 when the SEGA announced that they were gonna remix tons of old stages instead of creating new ones.

I still want to play it though.

>remix tons of old stages instead of creating new ones.
I really hate this "it doesn't count because it has the same name even though 95% of everything else is completely different" meme.

post your special stage expectation.

this. Sonic generations is one of my favourite sonic games despite all the stages being remixed old stages, because all the stages still felt new despite having familiar settings.

I don't blame people who think that at all, I'm tired of Green Hill Zone. Every time Sonic takes a dive they go back to it.

Eh. My hype died down over time.

Something new that's not trial and error, or at least Blue Sphere again.

Hyped as hell

It's the reason I bought a Wii U

kungfu sudoku

>look up pic

he draw the best Tails.

A rehash of the Sonic 2 special stage.

>Sonic Mania
>the reason I bought a Wii U

Knuckles Chaotix but faster

Pretty hype. Still, they better announce a Switch version next month.

One that is a reference to a popular or important SEG series or even a series of references and easter eggs

>again

>>not expecting a rehash after the first zone is green hill zone (again) and they said half the stages will be revisions of old ones

I like how the level design shifts slightly in the cave area and is more vertical

Well, as Taxman put it, there ARE technically more remixed stages in Mania than new ones but not only are most of them remixed very heavily, but it's also supposed to be a very big game.

With that in mind, if we got something like 8 new stages and 9 remixes would anybody really have an issue with that? 8 is still a respectable level count for a Sonic game on its own, and if the remixed levels are supposed to be quite significantly altered then to me that's just icing on the cake.

>beat shinobi to get the chaos emerald

More like hyped about the game, what I'm really excited about is the music. Gotta love that 90s Sega music style. Props to the composer.

I expect Blue Sphere, but I do not want it.

I want something completely new.

I'm afraid the guy doing the music might be a bit of a hack. Studiopolis Zone and Mirage Salon both have the same melody going for it.

The Sonic CD stages better be good, and I hope they somehow incorporate the time gimmick just for the music.

Super Monkey ball remake

welp

I don't see it. So he's gotta be a good hack then.

It's a flickering sprite. It alternates between the ball and his actual spinning, but it's too fast for the recording to pick up on it.

Anything but a "collecting rings in a half pipe" rehash again.

>vanilla
That's all I need.

this cracka know what's up.

pretty hype, i've been replaying the first 4 and before/after the sequel

No you press up and down on PC too.

What a MILF

The peel out animation shows when sonic has broken the land based speed cap which is a fucking awesome addition, but you're correct that the rolling sprite not reflecting that in the same way the running one does should be fixed

Dispatch him humanely, skin, clean, sell the pelt, give the meat to the hunting dogs.

It remind me a really creepy tetris clone Tails fangame I played in the 2000.

For a top speed roll they should do something like it is in CD opening and the OVA where it gets all spikey

Hello Sup Forums I am one of the background artists on sonic mania and I can confirm that these classic levels will be In it.
>green hill zone
>chemical plant zone
>aquatic ruin zone
>lava reef zone
>hidden palace zone
>sky sanctuary zone
>stardust speedway
There are also 5 new zones bringing the total to twelve.

could you sneak in some tails private information??

>Chemical Plant again
What is this Generations 2?

Yes, yes it is

>all the levels from Generations again
Fake.

muh dick

Green hill zone is in it
Lava reef, hidden palace aquatic ruin zone weren't in generations.

Green Hill is only in because it's Green Hill and it's apparently a law at SEGA now that every Sonic game needs Green Hill in it. But everything else aside from Ice Cap, Carnival Night, and Launch Base is fair game so why the fuck would they pick the same exact stages again?

because they are good?

It's not the same exact stages. They're remixed.

People said the same thing about Taxman a few years ago. I'm not saying it's the best case scenario or even LIKELY, but it's certainly possible. MAYBE after Iizuka retires, but I still doubt it as long as people eat up the boost2win formula.

Same. As good as 2D Sonic is, there's infinitely more potential for him in 3D and Utopia proves that, even if it's just on a fundamental level. I wouldn't hold my breath for updates though.

You're memeing wrong. You should say that in response to someone who wants Project 2017 more than Mania, because Utopia is a representation of Classic Sonic in 3D.

Makes sense. Being down in a cave the goal is to get back up and out again.

>How hype are you for Sonic Mania?
i'm more hype for the burst of porn it will start

>hold foward to win

>I wouldn't hold my breath for updates though.
They're going to be updates. They confirmed water running, a brake and drift. It's just going to be awhile because they redoing the framework.

...

When will they add Shadow?
