That day had come.

Sales have been low, reviews have been negative, and the fans are leaving their side. All of this just may lead to one of the most terrible days in gaming history. The day when Sega stops making Sonic games.

Those loyal fans who had stuck by Sonic's side for so long would have no more new games. No more Sonic. Ever.

What will you do when/if this happens? How will it impact your life, if at all? What will you, as a Sonic fan do?

I'd drive to petition for a master collection of every relevant Sonic game released to date, maybe write a book about the series if I had time.

Other than that, I'd probably just continue on with my life knowing that Sonic was an extremely popular and wonderful aspect of my childhood, and served as a focal point for some good friendships on the internet, which will certainly outlast Sonic if he were to keel over before I die.

I'd play some other games?

Sonic is cool and all, but in my life and everything, he makes up like 0.01% of it.

If they stopped making sonic games, oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

I would think a different company would buy them out and make a fresh new take but if they didn't merch sales would go up alot because no more would be made.
Fan games would still be made and we would have to look there for games
I would be mocked for supporting a dead franchise for ages while it was alive.

Here's a thought, What would happen to SSMB?

[Diogenes]

The majority of Sonic fans would leave the fanbase. More dedicated/desperate fans would follow hacking and fangaming communities, for as long as they lasted. Eventually we'd all move on (or die).

[JezMM]

^ Yeah prolly that.

Sonic is too big a part of my life so I prolly would start following hacks and fangames to get my fix of new content.

[Gregzilla]

I'd be sad that it's over, but happy that there would be no more crappy titles.

I'd just have to play the old ones, and probably shift back to being mainly a Nintendo fan. Hell, I already pretty much ignored Sonic until Colors and 4 came out, I could cope with the series ending.

[Wooly-Fools]

Honestly, if the games died, I think the character would probably live on. At least for a while...

People would still be fans, and would probably go on doing fan stuff. SSMB, and the Sonic Stadium, would still exist, they'd just become more fanatic and all that...

[Crow the BOOLET]

I wouldn't be too affected by this because all my favorite Sonic games already had came out.

Also SSMB will still be around for a couple of years until everyone decides its time to get on with life. But hey at least it would be fun right?

[Random Rhyme 3rd Verse]

Id be like a old man reminiscing about the good old days when I anxiously waited for the newest Sonic game to come out and speculated about future games.

[Indigo Rush]

Who here knows who Felix the Cat is?

If so, and I assume a bunch of you do, then I think Sonic's gonna be fine if the games stop.

[Inferno]

I'd probably fully move on to my other interests that I've acquired over the years, though I'd still remember the franchise fondly.

...Though if Pokemanz and One Piece were to up and vanish too, then I'd have nothing.

[BlazingTales]

Suddenly, I would get a lot more things done.

[Spooky Mulder]

I think I would just wait...

I would be disappointed, but I would assume that the series would return eventually. I think that at some point, either SEGA or some other company would try to reboot the franchise.

[NintendoSoul]

I'd be a little sad, but then remember my favorite games were already out, so I would just move on to my other gaming interests.

[Soniman]

Commit seppuku.

The only logical course of action naturally.

[Dead Master]

Then.... im sure Nintendo or someone else would buy them. Honestly, I would move to other games or my life, Sonic isn't the only thing I read or play games. XD

[Wooly-Fools]

Oh yeah, and my other idea is that I'd move on to being a crazy otaku....

[Reggie Fils-Aime]

Platformers will soon all disappear, they never get as much glory as they used to. Now-A-Days FPS's get all the glory.

I'd go into shock and then be stuck in a coma for 7 years.





After waking up, I'd realize that the world was shrouded in darkness and take a magic sword and an annyoing fairy and go on a quest to cleanse the world of darkness and save Sonic.
