I know there's a topic already on it but, I'd figured it's best to mention that here.
So anyone knew of the teaser SEGA posted on its Facebook (which spurred into a talk of it actually being there or not, which it's still is) from yesterday? Just now it's been revealed: http://blogs.sega.com/2016/01/21/announ ... -americas/
Yes the URL says the Americas; surely European countries won't be shafted, right?
But the REACTIONS tho.
(Finally) The SEGA Events/News Thread!

Sega couldnt win either way with this announcement. They had to build hype so people would talk about it, but by building any sort of hype people want a new Sonic game. What I will say is that people being salty over this announcement has worked in terms of pure advertising. Scrolling through twitter last night that game got mentioned a lot. The worst case scenario would of been SEGA announcing the game and it just disappearing into the internet ether.Twinny wrote: But the REACTIONS tho.
But hey, Powerdrift and Galaxy Force II on 3DS? Yay.
It's was a matter of using poor choice of words of SEGA's part, getting overhyped and building way too much of an expectation from the fans' side. Especially those who are in the Sonic camp. Yeah it's not as big of an announcement as it could have been, but this was a thing fans of the 3D Classics have been asking for, and in a way we got it.
All they said was that people who like classic games should be excited and so they announced a classic game collection. Not really seeing what was worth getting upset about since it obviously wasn't going to be a brand new game and nothing they've released would really fit outside of the 3DS game. Well maybe the Valkyria Chronicles PS4 port but p.sure that's not even out in Japan yet.
Not really interested in any of the games in the collection though and lol another Sonic 1 release.

That was teased on that SEGA Central show on YouTube plus over on SEGA's social media channels posted a jumbled puzzle of an image related to the series.Midwinter wrote:It looks like they might announce Valkyria on Monday for the West.
Thank goodness people aren't blowing their lids over that now...
I'm totally getting that collection if it's released in the UK. >:3Twinny wrote:I know there's a topic already on it but, I'd figured it's best to mention that here.
