I like how supposedly buying insurance will make it so Sonic does not have to run around anymore.

I know Sonic Generations was amazing, but... did it really fix Sonic's reputation enough that he can work as a salesperson? I thought the majority of people still hate him.
Of course, every single person in Britain wants the Go Compare opera singer to die the slowest, most hideously painful torturous death ever inflicted on anyone, but they seem to still be in business, so... -- "I'm Commander Shepard, and you're standing in the biggest library in Citadel Space.

No, not really. Sonic is hugely popular, especially over in Great Britain. The only people that hate Sonic are cynical old douchebags, which seems like the majority on the internet, but in real life it's pretty small. -- TheRock ~ Slow dramatic zoom-pan.

It's kind of weird though. I always thought Sonic's core audience skewed young, so why would you want him shilling insurance? Kids don't buy insurance, only adults do. If you wanted a videogame character to push insurance, why not get someone from a game adults play, like the Skyrim guard? He used to compare insurance rates to make sure he got the best price, but then he took an arrow in the knee.

If Hatsune Miku can sell Toyota Corollas in America, I think Sonic will be okay for insurance.

I like how it's using the Sonic 3 Title Screen music.

From: WhiteLens | #008 Actually it's the Sonic 3 invincibility music, which is based on the title screen but is a bit faster and loops sooner. And then at the end it does the Sonic 3 extra life tune. -- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] ... Copied to Clipboard!

No, not really. Sonic is hugely popular, especially over in Great Britain. Nah At its peak, Sonic was more popular here, that's true. But nowadays, it's kinda dead in the UK, at least relatively speaking. Generations utterly tanked in the UK sales charts. It dropped off the top 40 in two weeks. The general public just doesn't really care for the guy any more. This isn't internet cynicism or hate or anything silly like that by the way. Generations was great! But, facts gonna fact, I am sorry. The ad itself is kinda amazing though. Though a friend and I were wondering...

Europe is just cheap! Sales of a game increasing in the holidays, I'll be >_>. But it did make it back into the top 40 for a week then, true... at number 39 >_>. Mind you, I'm sure the sales aren't bad, but certainly not what you'd expect from somebody who used to hang with Mario. Though speaking of which, the Mario vs. Sonic games are very, very popular here (and everywhere else, at least by sales). So... Maybe it's not the guy himself, but his own games.

That's not true. For the week of ending December 24th, it jumped up to 15th overall. 6th for the 3DS. 10th for the PS3 15th for the Xbox 360 For the previous week: 6th on the 3DS 11th on the PS3 14th on the 360 Why, LS, I do believe you are fibbing! Sales of a game increasing in the holidays, I'll be >_>. There's still other games out there that would experience a jump in sales as well. Yet it appears Sonic experienced the largest.

Ahh, you see I wasn't counting the 3DS version, which appears to account for a majority of the sales.
So I suppose I was still wrong in that case. I actually forgot the 3DS version existed. Console version launch was still dreadful though. -- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig ... Copied to Clipboard!

TheRock1525 01/08/12 1:46:00 PM #31: |
Launch appears to be bad, yes.
But by the end of the year, it was finishing in the top 15 in sales for the console version. That's a good thing, right? -- TheRock ~ Slow dramatic zoom-pan. Doesn't phase the hooded man. ... Copied to Clipboard!

TheRock1525 01/08/12 1:51:00 PM #32: |
Also, I'm looking at 3DS most definitely does NOT make up the majority of sales.
Individual sales for the week of December 17th: Xbox 360: 41,150 PS3: 45,141 3DS: 15,206 -- TheRock ~ Slow dramatic zoom-pan. Doesn't phase the hooded man. ... Copied to Clipboard!
