It's pretty much Sega's version of Princess Peach/Toadstool thing, where Eggman was what he was called in Japan and Robotnik was what he was called elsewhere.

Looks like a lot of fun! I'll definitely check out the show when it airs.

Because Eggman is a stupid name for a villain and Robotnik sounds more threatening.

Robotnik is no less of a goofy name, imo. I think it fits the character better more, though, but in a comedy-focused Sonic show I can see why they'd use the marginally sillier Eggman name instead.

I don't mind Knuckles' look at all. I'm not a fan of Sonic's voice and that humor didn't stick out at all (Egghead?)

Edit: didn't know her name was also Princess Toadstool. Shows how little I've been paying attention to Mario.

Looks potentially good. The game does, too.

His official full name is Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik since Sonic Adventure. They merged both the Japanese and American stuff into one by then and everyone just went with his nickname. I still call him Robotnik, though. No reason except that it rolls off the tongue easier.



Oh yeah, I forgot it was his Japanese name. Like with Bowser and King Koopa.

Yep, now Bowser simply has the title "king of koopas" instead of making it his name.

Really wish they'd give his name the Eggman treatment because "King Bowser Koopa" has a great ring to it.

I had that question in the back of my mind since I last came to this thread. thanks (I think I asked that before and forgot lol)

The Knuckles design is going to take some getting used to, but it does seem appropriate. Can't say I have any problems with the others, either.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

In the same vein as Space Dandy, Sonic Boom will have negative continuity.

Errr... I don't mind an episodic series, but at least have a continuity going.  :unimpressed:

Why? Continuity isn't exactly a requirement for cartoons. Why does everyone expect it nowadays?
