Regardless of this, the last Western game that embraces both names was 1999’s Sonic Adventure. Yuji Naka went on the record saying that ‘Robotnik’ is his true last name but that ‘Doctor Eggman’ is a nickname. Regardless, the Japanese name has always been ‘Doctor Eggman’, due to his shape (and original concept for the character being egg like). It sounds like a person who would be a crazy doctor who creates robots. Robotnik’, it just makes sense with the villain. I’m one of those people who loves the name ‘Dr. Obviously since Sonic is a nomad badass, he doesn’t really consider any place home. Then I looked it up and there is in fact an actual ‘ Christmas Island‘.
#SONIC GET IT DONE ATTITUDE MANUAL#
When I first heard that the Japanese manual of Sonic the Hedgehog said he was born on ‘ Christmas Island‘, I started thinking about how bad Sonic Team was at naming stuff. Sonic Team didn’t want to scrap the design, and he slowly was incorporated into the evil Doctor we know and love today. Above is art he had for one of his mascot designs. That was no exception for Naoto Ohshima, designer of Sonic the Hedgehog. Hey, when you want to design a character to take on Mario, you probably go through lots of drafts of characters that actually resemble his qualities. Might not be much, but I’ll take any AM2 cross over I can get. Did you know that the skidding sound found in the Sonic games was lifted from Out Run? I love Yu Suzuki and all the great gems that he released when he was part of AM2, so that’s one of the reasons this fact made this list. The game was set to feature a long lost sister of Sonic generically named ‘ Sister Sonic‘. SEGA America wasn’t done yet, they had plans to turn Popful Mail into a game called ‘ Sister Sonic‘. They turned the Japanese Magical Hat no Buttobi Turbo! Daibouken into Decap Attack, Puyo Puyo into Dr.

SEGA America was trying to bring over as much Japanese software as possible and make it work for American audiences. There was almost a Sonic game called: Sister Sonic Who wasn’t a big fan of how awesome the Death Star looked? You know who else loved the design? Eggman, so much so that he literally created his own and called it Death Egg. We are big Star Wars fans around this site so I had to add the whole Death Star homage. I’m still waiting for my official Rad Mobile Sonic the Hedgehog themed air freshener, SEGA! Death Egg vs Death Star? Sonic the Air Freshener: Sonic’s first appearanceĭid you know that Sonic the Hedgehog made his first video game debut in AM2’s Rad Mobile in the arcades on April 26th, 1991? He was an air freshener in the game, which was released a little less than a month before his official game, Sonic the Hedgehog. Hedgehogs can actually swim quite normally, check out the video above for some cute hedgehog swimming. Why was this done? He said he didn’t think hedgehogs could swim.
#SONIC GET IT DONE ATTITUDE HOW TO#
He is the reason that Sonic the Hedgehog doesn’t know how to swim. Yuji Naka was a designer, programmer and later former head of Sonic Team. Yuji Naka thought Hedgehogs couldn’t swim SEGA would later use the name when they teased Sonic the Hedgehog 4 as ‘Project Needlemouse’. Hedgehog’ since it’s the literal translation for the Japanese word hedgehog. The name is an alternative translation of ‘Mr. Needlemouse was given to many prototype and early concept characters that would later become the blue blur that we know and love. Since Sonic the Hedgehog is quite a popular character you might or might not have read some of these. It’s time to end our week-long Sonic the Hedgehog 23rd anniversary celebration with 23 Sonic facts.
