Good ol Sonic the Hedgehog…Sega’s counterattack to Nintendo’s Mario. He was cool…he had attitude…guys wanted to be his pal and girls wanted to be his gal…unlike this sucktard. This photo looks like it was taken at a video game convention in 1991…in Paris. I’m really digging the oversized shades and the little tiny tuft of facial hair on the chin (guessing that’s all he can sprout). Nice failed macho attitude too. That little squirrel buddy of Sonic can pull off more ‘tude than you pal. This entire ensemble is so bad…I’m expecting Rick Astley to pop out and Rick Roll this post.

I remember it well it was December 1991 and I was patiently waiting for Christmas. When it came I got an original Sega Genesis system with a built in headphone jack and it came with this awesome new(at the time) game called Sonic The Hedgehog. It reminded me of 1985 when the classic NES system came with Super Mario Bros. Much like that title it set a new standard for platform video games with it’s fast paced action,catchy yet quirky music and great controls (A,B and C buttons all made Sonic jump the D pad moved him around and that was about it).
Like Super Mario World, Sonic The Hedgehog was an instant classic but in terms of originality and fun Sonic was even more revolutionary.
The levels were all colorful and easy such as the beautiful Green Hills and Starlight Zone plus the brilliant Scrap Brain levels, but like another reviewer said the best part of this game were the special stages. If you collected all 6 chaos emeralds you get a different ending with Dr Robotnkik stomping on the words THE END.

Hey there’s nothing wrong with this. My 6 year old son is a huge Sonic fan. I might get a tat of that just because he would like it.

that’s an awesome idea…if you could wash it off when your son is 10 and no longer gives a damn about Sonic
