Will we ever get another Sonic Fighting game that makes use of this huge cast?

How fickle the internet is...

Sega kept introding things worse than the extended cast so now they seem good compared to what we currently have.

I'd like another Sonic game where you play as that little robot who got people's abilities. That one was really fun.

Sonic Battle was repetitive boring garbage. Only the graphics and music were salvageable from that game.

>Sonic team actually using their cast effectively as opposed to just not thinking of reason to have them
>Trusting nu Sonic Team with anything

Unleashed and generations were flukes.

Well, I liked it.

SEGA should have the time and money to make a proper 2D Sonic fighting game. They've got the characters for it.
Even if it is a remaster of Sonic Battle, modern wifi or even local switch play could make it a worthwhile experience. Sonic Battle just came out on the wrong platform.

Sonic doesn't even have that many characters compared to most long running series so I don't know why that was ever a complaint.

Not to mention a good number of those characters only appeared once and are forgotten.

Because the solo gameplay only really needs Sonic.

It really didn't, GBA was massively popular and spawned several great titles.

>Sonic Team
Of the two official Sonic fighting games that exist, only one of them was made by Sonic Team. Considering that one is best remembered for things besides its gameplay I don't see why they wouldn't let another developer make the game instead.

You monster.

heroes did it

While true, it was not a great machine for fighting games. Handhelds rarely are. some of the Neo Geo Pocket's games are the rare exceptions. Even if a game is good, before wireless gameplay was standard it was hard to actually get a game going, since at the bare minimum you needed two machines and a link cable.

I haven't played a wealth of Sonic games but it seems like the problem is that Sonic Team doesn't know how to make a game more than anything else. The friends being misused would just be an affect of this.
Sonic has a trove of good designs so I don't mind them being used desu

I loved Battle. It's fucking damn good. Go suck dicks user.

The core gameplay in Sonic Battle was more of an issue than the platform it was on.

The people who actually knew what they were talking about at the time were complaining about were refering to the gameplay styles of Big, treasure hunts, flyers in heroes, etc when they say things like "sonic's friends suck" then shutters and people less invested in Sonic just heard that and took it to mean their existence was the problem, and the meme snowballed from there.

That, and all the one off characters except Chip were poorly written.

>huge cast
>missing a lot of the characters
Makes ya think
