Or am I just losing it....my kid's big into Sonic atm and i'm 99% sure Dr Robotnik wore a white lab coat in the original Sonic on the Sega Megadrive (UK/early 90s)...the red outfit was introduced later? I thought the old Robotnik in the Sonic 3 movie was a throwback to the "OG" Robotnik but now it seems he was always in that red outfit?
>>12124201>my kidgtfo
>>12124201no and we have Captain Vidya to prove your gay little berenstain theory is bunk, and that your memory is -gasp- not a reliable narrator of this universe
>>12124201Nope, Robotnik's grandfather however always had a white coat in Sonic Adventure 2.
>>12124201it was always red
Robotnik was a fat, red, moustached man because it's a CRITIQUE of Mario
Welcome to this timeline, OP.
>>12124241he was actually based on teddy roosevelt
>>12124201You're thinking of the megaman guy
>>12124253>he was actually based on teddy roosevelt
>>12124253I never knew that. Interesting detail.
>>12124201I could make a joke about mad cow disease, but we both know your problem is your degeneration was just born with brains like swiss cheese. Moldy swish cheese. Nothing you imagine you remember is the least bit reliable. But your narcissism compels you to believe your hallucinations with 99% confidence. My advice would be to follow the example of the valiant cows who made the ultimate sacrifice to save the rest of their species.
>>12124359those guys are too
>>12124413Bully!
>>12124201No, he always wore a red dress.
>>12124201Your kid is going to grow up to be a furry inflation scat fetishist if you don't nip that Sonic obsession in the bud right now.
>>12124201Kill yourself.
If you're from the UK, it's possible you might be getting the actual game mixed up with some of early British promo material? The "Sonic the Comic" series that ran in the UK gave Robotnik an origin story where he was a kind scientist named "Dr. Kintobor" before becoming the Robotnik in the games. In that origin, he's depicted with a more traditional white lab coat and as far as I can think of it's the only media around that era that depicts him as such. The Eggman from the original games and Japanese media always wore red as far as the final design goes, and the older Robotnik you're referring to in the movie is based on an entirely different character introduced in games from the early 2000s.
Blue arms anyone? Am I being heckin Mandela'd?
>>12124201Maybe you also played Mega Man and got your evil doctors mixed up?>I thought the old Robotnik in the Sonic 3 movieThat was Gerald Robotnik from Sonic Adventure 2, who wore a white labcoat. You may have also seen a picture of him from Shadow The Hedgehog, where he was fat like Eggman/Robotnik.
Sonic was based on Felix the Cat (partly) and Felix had a nemesis called the Professor who wore a white lab coat
