I was holding off on posting that one, but I thought I would get it out there for some early Monday AM news. Last week, we heard a couple different sites tell us that Sonic should be done away with. Now, an exposition pops up that say Sonic, Mario, and all of their friends should get the boot…locked away for Sega and Nintendo to never use them again. While I do agree that Sonic is in need of an overhaul, I don’t think that all of his friends deserve to be hidden away as well. They’ve never even had a chance to do anything good! Sega needs to stop bringing out new characters, and start doing good things with the huge cast they have now.

When it comes to Mario and his friends…what?! It’s hard to deny

that Mario has popped up in a ton of games, some of them that he didn’t need to. There are titles that Nintendo could have launched into a new franchise, but instead, they put Mario and his mates in the title to ensure some better sales. Still though, I can’t say that Mario and the rest of the Nintendo staples have been in truly horrible games. Mario Party needs to be revamped…but…I can’t think of too many other games that these characters seem in that are truly horrid. Take Mario by himself, and making the statement that he should retire is insanity. His main adventures are some of the best gaming has to offer…period.

Who knows…possibly my Nintendo/Sega fanboy is showing…how do you feel?
