It won't have the original soundtrack. Too many unlicensed samples.

Apparently it will, talk about weird. I guess I'll be buying it now to own it semi officially with the Japanese music.

Interesting. The sampling always kept them from releasing it here before. Maybe they finally figured out that nobody gives a shit about sampling in a videogame.

That seals it for me. I'm buying!

And it's coming for PS3 and PC, not just XBLA. But it's not coming out on Wii. Is it just me, or has Sega been dumping the Wii lately?

I feel like it's a big "fuck you" for all the people who didn't bother buying Sonic Colors. They're supporting the 3DS though...

Yeah I'm pretty surprised myself honestly.

I still need to check out Sonic Colors myself whenever I get a Wii again.

Well..I guess I'll be dying a few times with Sonic and then hear the dramatic ending feeling the scenerio that I have died and went to hell with Sonic toasting over an open flame :P

A wii download release is not possible. All downloaded titles have to fit on the wii's tiny 512 MB internal nand memory. The SD card channel stuff is copied back to the nand before it actually runs.

Don't add to my problems by pretending my past views are still held in the present. I do not have any patience for that. Feel free to ask me what I think now.
