Can’t wait to check out his whirlwind attack
As you all know, as dedicated video game fans, all the iconic characters grow from the tiniest of inspirations. Link, Samus, Max Payne, Monty Mole, Manic Miner, all of these fictional game stars once emerged from within a developer’s cerebral cortex – though it’s understandable that many of them did. went through a lot of design and personality tweaks before they were in sweaty hands.
Well, except for Manic Miner, he’s based on a true story.
Typical: This cool concept document was recently unearthed for your liking Sonic the Hedgehog Character’s name). As posted by dedicated fansite SEGAbitsThe studio memo introduces the Sega employees to a fun new set of characters to take over Sonic’s universe in a storm. The new red-dyed character is still the “best all-around athlete” on the island!
Simply put, (NAME) is the original echidna from hell, in fact he is a completely outrageous model!
(NAME) will appear in the upcoming Sega Mega Drive release (see “1994”), Sonic the Hedgehog 3, where he would act as the sole guardian of the Chaos Emerald – convinced by someone known as “Dr. Robotnick” (Dr. RobotSIC) – that Blue Blur is the enemy of man, and must be stopped at all costs. Get off Facebook, (NAME), it’s filling your… tall, bad… with propaganda!
(NAME) won’t attack Sonic the Hedgehog directly, but maybe steal the Power Ring, destroy the roads and cause chaos with his iconic Tornado Attack… So that’s why. This famous toy designed as such. Don’t worry, explains the docs, because two joggers will become best friends, thus spoiling plot of a movie which is still nearly 30 years away from being released.
We’ll see (NAME) work when Sonic the Hedgehog 3 premiered, February 2, 1994, on the Sega Mega Drive.
