Are the people that say "Sonic was never good" memeing or actually serious? Saying Mario games are better is one thing, but acting like the 2d sonic games were bad or even average platformers is just ridiculous. Even for the 16 bit generation, the best gen for platformers, Sonic was an S tier game among its peers in the same genre.

If you're talking about Sonic 1, I agree. It's patrician.

I was a Nintendo kid, but I loved going to Sega friends' houses and playing Sonic (and whatever else they had for the Genesis). I never really bought into the console rivalry nonsense.

Sonic was the most fun platformer back in the day. Sonic 3 is still one of my favorites to go back to.

Nope, they suck. I unironically believe anyone claiming those games are good is just trolling. 3d Sonic games suck too but they're better than 2d Sonic.

There's one let's player that I still like to watch and he's playing Sonic Mania now. He plays it like a metroid game, trying to find every secret and see the entire level in one go.
Now I honestly think some people are just playing the games wrong.

they had a demo of Sonic 1 at a department store when I was a kid, and it was mind blowing (I was 7 and it was 1992). my brothers and I desperately wanted a Genesis, and we ended up getting it for christmas. SNES was already out, and it was exciting in the sense that any video game was exciting to us, but there was no question what system we wanted.

Yep, they're great. I unironically think anyone claiming those games are bad are just trolling. 3d Sonic games are good too but they're not as good as 2d Sonic.
