Where’s that “leaker” on here who said they’re gonna do another season and port over a bunch of Sonic all stars racing transformed tracks for FREE lmao

On a serious note, this feels like a nail in the coffin for Sonic kart racers. While I think the game is worse than transformed in every metric, most importantly gameplay, I can also see how this game clearly has a much higher budget and thus higher need for strong sales. This is an expensive game. They also had sonic team work on this game, and it’s definitely the first “miss” the Sonic renaissance has had so far. Don’t really see how another game gets made unless they outsource it for cheap, but that would just damage the brand even worse.

They'll drop the price and it'll sell better. Plus TSR sold like hotcakes after the Sonic movie. So just imagine the sales when the Sonic movie 4 comes out.

>>732131405
Wasn't that mostly because the game was included in a bunch of those $30 double packs with shit like Sonic Mania and Forces?
>>
>>732131536
Hard to say. It definitely helped, but being a good value is what sold the game and TSR is considered dogshit. But I'd say if they drop the base game to $40 before the next Sonic movie comes out they can easily sell 2 more million.

Sonic as a gaming franchise seems to be dying down. Most game release can only reach a million sales and that's if the game isn't a massive disappointment. Sega seems to care more about Yakuza/Like A Dragon than Sonic at this point.

It rustled Tendie's jimmies because of the RV commercial so they have to make sales threads to claim they were right (ignore the fact that 1 million isn't even bad for a Sonic spinoff priced at $70).

It's Sega themselves who are disappointed. Were their expectations stupid? Yes, but this result obviously emboldens people on the Mario Kart side of this retarded, 25 years too late console warring argument. There was no need to compare them in the first place, it's always going to end the same way just like Forces vs Odyssey and Superstars vs Wonder.

The game really didn't seem that good. Played the demo, and the crossworld mechanic was pretty lame, the music was grating, didn’t enjoy the feel of steering, it had some buggy rough edges, and the gear system seemed like a horrible idea which seems to be playing out now

>>732135653
Sure, but will it make it to another million. The momentum for the game is slowing down and it was already at a trailing pace. Sales may help but that would require more units being sold to compensate for that loss revenue. Maybe tying it in with the movies in some way can help it.

Hell, I could excuse the Season Pass, Smash Ultimate did the same, but don't go around removing content from your base game and then sell it as a """Deluxe""" bundle for a higher cost than what the full game of your competitor sells. AND THEN release an ad mocking said competitor only for your game to be barebones compared to the sheer amount of content the other game has. But hey, we have Spongebob! Kids love Spongebob!

SEGA's stupidity is their own enemy.

It's called a "return on investment" all the marketing and licensing isn't cheap. Team sonic racing and even sonic and all stars are cheaper since they own about everything there.

I think crossovers still have a lot of popularity. The problem with Sonic is that it fumbled that hard. The roster is 90% sonic and then you get a drip feed of Sega characters but the Sega characters don’t come with tracks. What does come with tracks? The season pass characters most of which Sonic fans won’t care about.
If this was a Sega All Stars game it thing the premise could have worked but as it’s stands it is Sega being retarded with their own premise again

There have been a lot of racing games recently. But they're easy to make and advertise consoles.
>>732137716
I should mention that my estimate comes from taking Bananza's Japanese sales numbers and comparing them to Air Riders. Air Riders sold in a month what took Bananza three and it sold 3M by the end of its first quarter. I understand that Kirby is far bigger in Japan than DK, but the differences can be met between regions.

Crossworld's items legitimately feel more impactful and bullshit than the average high-level room in MKW despite that objectively not being the case. A lot of high-VR races in World comes down to if you can either predict shock and dodge it or be in the position to mitigate it's punishment (so far ahead it doesn't matter, on glider so you eat the shrink and item loss but maintain your speed and momentum) but even when I don't successfully do it I've never been as utterly pissed as I've been getting hit by King Boom Boo'd into Weights one right after the other.

I really like racing games and I agree, one can only play so many games until they start blending with each other because they're lacking that uniqueness that makes you want to go back.

They really should have waited to launch it so that the Switch 2 version would be day-and-date. Doing so would also get them out of the minefield of Mario Kart and Kirby Air Riders.

You sound like a fag.

Regardless, the game has three modes available in single player.
>Grand Prix
Where you can race against all 23 rival characters to unlock Super Sonic
>Race Park (which has six game types)
Where you can complete games to unlock new vehicles
>Time Trial
Where getting better ranks unlocks new music tracks

This is more single player content than arguably the best kart racing game Mario Kart 8.

Disagree. Had more fun learning Whistlestops shortcut than any other in the series. Would have dropped any other Mario Kart by now.

Didn't read any of the replies in this thread, but Sonic's biggest enemy is Sega themselves. Sega expects this franchise to sell sell sell from word and historical status alone, and not good marketing. They allowed IGN to release the infamous "First 15 Minutes" video on Frontiers, they allow YouTubers to be their brand ambassadors and mouthpieces for advertising. I do not care about Nintendo vs Sega, and you shouldn't too. Nintendo isn't the reason why Crossworlds flopped, the game is on PS4, PS5, PC, XBONE, & XBSX.

Unfortunately for sonicfags, crossworlds was used in the NDS griftuber circuit as the game that will kill the "disappointing" mario kart world (just ignore the fact that most of what they were trying to claim ruined MKW is also present in Crossworlds) so now all it will be known for is how badly it did against MKW.

I’m shocked we haven’t gotten a Sonic Rhythm Game yet since the series is famous for its bangers, even Kingdom Hearts and Mario got Rhythm Games. Pic related because the subtitle of “Superstars” would’ve made a lot of sense for a rhythm game and not yet another shitty 2D Classic Game. On another note Sonic Blitz would’ve made for a cool Fighting Game title but it ended up as a stupid Card Mobile Slopage. Don’t even get me started on Sonic Fall Gu- I mean Rumble.

The Steam numbers are a bit disingenuous too, because it's a Monday morning (I myself am about to go to work), and the game has crossplay

It won't be. Is some kid really going to spend $70 then a further $30 to play as Spongebob in a Sonic game?

There's a reason most of the 3rd party characters in Smash Bros, including Sonic are in the base game. They help sell the game to non-Nintendo fans. If they're all in the season pass then those characters aren't going to sell many copies of the game.

This rumor has been in the sonic community for at least 6-8 months now if not longer along with the "new sonic game reveal at the game awards" rumor that was squashed at the actual show. Hell there are giveaways like playing as anyone else other Sonic in a modern title, Tangle getting a named voice actress, non Paramount characters being added in crossworlds, a open world section in a 3d Sonic remake are the biggest red flag in it being fake. Also a 15 episode anime set before Eclipse? Networks have standards of ordering shows be in sets of groups devisable by 4) Even Sega has spoke out saying Crossworlds will not be getting voice acting for DLC characters.

All they had to do was make All Stars Transformed 2 and it would be a huge seller. Instead they went the fortnite route with retarded non-sega characters. I don't count Persona as a Sega series and Yakuza is just a joke of its past self. Also, the game looks way to slow when in motion. Crazy Taxi on my Dreamcast feels like I'm actually going fast, while Cross World looks like I'm riding in jell-o by comparison.

People aren’t going to like this answer but it’s more that kart racing and racing in general is a dying genre and MKW only sold well because of the bundle making it 50 dollars in a world where games are 70-80 dollars and MKW was one of the first real games on the switch 2. Even at a reasonable price, people don’t tend to buy kart racers. This is why Kirby air riders flopped and why robotniks ring racers did poorly. Kart racing is a solved genre and MK8 is what solved it.

Crossworlds can probably do okay if the dlc is worth it (new game modes) and it becomes 50 dollars.

You gotta keep in mind sales are all tendies have at the moment, otherwise they'd have to actually play the Switch 2 games of this shit era. Crossworlds is bad, but MKW was genuinely the biggest disappointment possible. Air Riders is also a disappointment and DKB is the worst 3D platformer Nintendo has put out since Sunshine. They are so annoying they actually manage to surpass Sonic fans in this case, and their heads are too far up their fav corpo's ass to see that the accountants running Nintendo are about to put themselves into another Gamecube era, games with niche appeal keeping their heads above water bc of the characters on the box. I say this as someone that was excited for Switch 2 and couldn't care less about Sonic.

>>732146428
Even assuming the bundle accounted for about 2/3 sales, that is still around more than 1.5 million copies in a month and around 3 millions in four months which puts it squarely among the other heavyhitters for Nintendo and that's on a system that just launched compared to a multiplatform title selling 1 million copies and no more announcements after 3 months.

in the first place he made his career bitching about why does nintendo not force the FE, splatoon or xenoblade studios into making more pikmin games, bitching about all the "animay" games, then bitching about getting a pikmin game
it wasn't until the retard actually played it and said "it's not THAT bad actually" that everyone started to call him a nintendo cocksucker for not hating nintendo for everything after having built up his audience off NDS niggers, because weirdly enough his non-negative videos after that started to get decent views
or at least, it was the case until he dipped into NDS niggery again
which is why it's asinine why NDS fags are trying to claim arlo "betraying nintendo glazers" is a big deal, like fuck no it's just another NDS nigger going back to the usual

In his defense, you don't need to love EVERY Nintendo franchise to be a Nintendo fan. You can like a few franchises and the overall spirit of the brand and still be a fan as a whole. To me, those videos work because he's clearly speaking from the perspective of a newbie, which many people are. Speaking for myself, I've only recently playing the Pikmin games 3 on Switch was my first and would consider myself a fan of the series. You don't need to born with Pikmin toy in hand to be a fan. My problem with him comes from his lack of research on more objective topics like finance and him trying to gage public sentiment through his limited audience. Just because #LowerThePrice was trending on Xitter doesn't mean Nintendo's going to have a bad 2026.

I think it's obvious he's never been a diehard fan of everything Nintendo and probably would like to branch out into discussing topics outside of just Nintendo.

As someone who used to live in japan. I can tell you sonic hasn't been popular there since the heroes days.

Arlo was always a NDS grifter to an extent, before that was even a thing.
Dude does not actually like most Nintendo games and most of his early videos was just him grifting the Paper Mario fags while seething every time another Nintendo series got a new game.

>>732148289
>In his defense, you don't need to love EVERY Nintendo franchise to be a Nintendo fan

True, you don't have to. But in the mid 2010s It was obvious his Nintendo experience before he was being sent review copies was something like:
>Super Mario Sunshine
>Legend of Zelda WW
>Pikmin 1 & 2
>Paper Mario TTYD

The average Wii/DS casual probably played a wider degree of Nintendo games than Arlo did before he was forced to for his channel. But the guy tries to act like an authority on what Nintendo games should be like and its usually based on about how much a Nintendo game is like one of 5 games he played on Gamecube.

And also why saying this game which people actually like is gonna kill the racing side. People assumed that game was going to and then it sold 3.5 million copies.

I have some fondness for the Adventure games, but they're not that good. At best, the Sonic stages are good, and everything else is kind of crappy.
When all was said and done, Sonic X Shadow Generations is probably the overall best 3D Sonic.

The problem with big franchises trying a rhythm game is that it's always being treated like a temporary appendix that was good for a holiday season and little else. Citing the two examples you brought in, Mario got 1 (one) DDR spinoff game with original music and the idea was never picked up again and Memory of Melody -the KH music game- largely lacked tracks from Kingdom Hearts 3 and the more recent games in general, with just a few Disney songs as bonuses.
Really, unless you have a dedicated team making music games for more than a time, it's really hard to try having people get invested into the idea in the first place. Donkey Konga got 2 (3 in Japan) games with their own region-based music selection because of the PS2 Taiko no Tatsujin people being behind them.

Let's be real, they do it due to social pressure among normalfags.

And this is why I don't follow influencers or whatever name they give to shills and haters these days.
Best way to find if a game is good is downloading demos, pirating before buying if that's your style, or checking a few random gameplay videos (if it's a no commentary one even better), and making your own opinion about the game looking and feeling good enough to buy.

This is what I usually do, especially when it comes to Nintendo games. A few videos of the gameplay generally tells me whether it's something I'm interested in (and thus worth purchasing) or not.
