i mean he's not wrong is he? Sonic is bassicly a shonen protag atleast during the Adventure era.
and you could say the overall tone is that of a shonen just replace the fighting with boss fights and/or stages.
I wasn't just giving my opinion there, it really seems like Sonic Team based their characterizations on DB characters. I mean shit, Super Sonic is literally just SSJ.

SONIC MANIA IS SHIT.

SONIC SPINBALL OR KILL YOURSELF, FAGGOT.

Otherwise I like this. Minus ANY of the Adventure games.

EXCEPT YOU, SNEED. I'LL GET YOU, BITCH!!!

Is there a way to play 06 and Unleashed without PS3/360 yet? Or is my best bet to emulate the PS3?

Something about Sonic 3's design never sat right with me. I dunno what, but it's there, and it drove me nuts.
Sonic 3's character sprites were based off of 3D models. They spent most of their development time trying to make the damn game in 3D. Didn't work out.

(Left is the Knux sprite from that Sonic 3 Beta they found that had the music from Sonic and Knuckles Collection)
Speaking of betas, here's some from the Sonic CD beta, extended:
CD quality tunes
 
With this shitflinging going on, I expected nothing from this Sonic Central video and somehow I actually managed to be disappointed. It's sad that my expectations are so incredibly low but still manages to be disappointed. Majority is boring and more nostalgia pandering, some mobile shit nobody cares about (I don't care if you release mobile game announcements, Pokemon did that, Mario did that, but if you didn't give any new game info and the closest to something new is mobile game shit that is unacceptable), oh yeah and Sonic Colors remake.

But hey that's fine because the Sonic Twitter made some le funny maymay and SEGA cares about your fangames and fanworks so all is forgiven, right?

My thoughts exactly. His design is too busy (hot spots on his fur, three-quarter view), and the stupid expression he wears reminds me of this:

At least Knuckles looks good, and Tails is practically unchanged from 2.
Sega also cares more about their old IPs than Nintendo does
Wow, if only they'd shown as much interest back when they were making hardware.

Look at how few IPs made the jump to Saturn and Dreamcast. Stuff like Shining Force got a bunch of mediocre spin-offs with practically zero marketing, did poorly outside of Japan...apparently it was too costly to localize Sega's RPGs, which allowed Sony to step in and achieve dominance out of little more than luck and opportunity.
Thirdly, the music doesn't make your fucking ears bleed
Be fair to Spinball: it has the trippiest music in the series. You could insert this into Sega's Shadowrun title and it would work.
3D Blast is better.

Platformers aren't my thing, so I cannot say what made Sonic good.
On a surface level, 2D Sonic had something which Mario still struggles and that's personality. Sonic is impatient and arrogant. Those might not be the best qualities in a person but they make him more relatable. In 3 and World you get the hint that Mario's sort of childlike with the way he sticks his hands out when running full speed.

2D Sonic also had this whole 'nature versus technology' theme going on whereas Mario World was just saving a princess from a dragon in food-themed levels. Level design is harder to grade one side over the other, with Mario's being tighter and Sonic's music really characterizing its environments (with separate tracks for every level). They were more visually-varied than Mario's outdoor/underground dichotomy. Both had their merits.

The catch is Sonic's "attitude" gave him unique and timely appeal for the 90's, but Mario's look and personality is more timeless than Sonic's, and his gameplay is easier to translate into 3D. Sonic's shtick is going really fast while platforming: much harder to bring into 3D with success.

There is more lore and world building with Sonic than with Mario. You grow to appreciate it or at least laugh at its absurdity. At least it's not Save the Princess for the umpteenth time.

But come on Sega, stop jumping from universe to universe with all these characters and gimmicks. Shadow with a gun was the least offensive one.
