Some of their biggest market happens to be on the Wii, while most X-Box 360 and PS3 players will most likely turn to other franchises such a call of duty or madden, seeing as those new games have already released (no stereotype intended, these are just much beloved series, and frankly those systems seem better for those genres) players time will be mostly occupied with them, while the Wii, while immensely popular, has no big-ticket releases planned for this year, and if SEGA advertised sonic generations the right way, the could make a boatload of money.
The fact they that SEGA isn’t just downgrading the graphics a notch and releasing it on the Wii just astounds me! Now, what was that about a new Nintendo console again…!? We certainly want to get in on the anniversary celebrations regardless! We must remember, however, that SEGA have stated that they were to release a number of Sonic games this year, so perhaps Nintendo fans are to be rewarded with a separate game – we’ll have to wait and see. “A SEGA rep told me there’s no Wii version because the game is fully HD,” Stephen Totilo, Editor of Kotaku, explained. Having been queried as to the reasons for such a decision, the response from a SEGA representative was that “the game is fully HD,” and, of course, the Wii doesn’t support such output resolution. It was a surprise therefore that, with SEGA this year celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog, their latest game, Sonic Generations, won’t be releasing on Wii alongside its PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 counterparts. That’s not to mention the successful partnership with Nintendo’s iconic Italian plumber in the Mario & Sonic games either…! Sonic has had a fantastic run (no pun intended) on both the Wii and Nintendo DS systems, with players enjoying the speedy blue hedgehog’s Secret Rings, Unleashed, Black Knight outings as well as his return to form in the recently released Sonic Colours.
