Reve, they already showed a new version of that logo, and it is Sonic.

Oh. Stupid, stupid, stupid me.

I've never really figured out when it's Dr. Eggman and when it's Dr. Robotnik. What's the difference?

Re: Project Needlemouse

There's no difference, it's just the name, they're the same character.

I was looking at it from a weird angle. I see the blue now.

But then why are there two names in the first place?

Re: Project Needlemouse

In Japan, Eggman was always Eggman. However, when the first game came to the US SEGA of America decided that Eggman was too silly a name to be in a COOL video game, so they renamed him Robotnik. However, when Sonic Adventure came out and Sonic games started having real stories, hey had to start using all of the Japanese canon, such as the name Eggman.

Re: Project Needlemouse

One of my first video games(computer game?) ever was the Sega Puzzle Pak for PC (I literally got it when I was about 3 yrs old) and I always thought of him from as "Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine" (A total Puyopuyo Ripoff btw) so I guess I didn't really understand the Eggman stuff.

I should brush up on my Sonic knowledge more.

I don't think you could call it a ripoff, since it's made by the same people. IIRC they thought that Puyo Puyo was too girly to appeal to the vast majority of gamers back than(obviously, little boys).

I still have the original Puyo Puyo on SNES. Hardcore stuff bro. Also, IIRC Puyo Puyo was made by Compile, while MBM was made by Sega. What do you mean same people? oO



Ontopic: Oh, it's a WiiWare game.

Re: Project Needlemouse

MBM was developed by Compile.

Ontopic: I hope Knuckles gets in.

Re: Project Needlemouse

Sonic, Tails and Knuckles are a guarantee. I wonder if there will be a new character...

What animal would a new character be? Hmm
