Random Time! - Emma Watson chooses between Mario and Sonic in "The Circle"

Whoever wrote that dialog clearly has an axe to grind with SEGA and the more recent Sonic games. That said, I think we can all agree that Mario/Sonic's earlier games were fantastic. It just seems that Mario has maintained the excellent quality all throughout his adventures, be they recent or 30 years old. That said, I really think Sonic Mania/Forces will do a lot to bring Sonic back to his former glory.
