Jet isn’t really a prominent character in the Sonic series like Amy is though, he’s mostly in the spin-offs.

Even then, he wasn’t actually playable in the M&S Olympic Games until Rio 2016 & Tokyo 2020, the others he was a boss character (your playable Mii could unlock a Jet costume though).

Hey, apologies for the ping, but I thought you should know:

Some gmail account claiming to be SNK’s been flagging SNK stuff on YT, namely music.

I heard the real SNK's looking into it, but I think you should probably backup anything on your YT channels, just in case.

Oh wait, Ricochet also won the NXT NA Title, does that count as a Grand Slam?

…You know what? Fuck it. I’m counting it. He is.

WWE Speed Title I’m not really sure about though, depends on how it lasts now that it’s on NXT.

Also USB Switch controllers work on PS3 (mileage may vary).

I 2nd the indie games (mostly since their cheap/on sale a lot), I don’t plan on getting a Switch 2 for a while, but Bananza definitely seems like a standout title. Though I’ve mostly been thinking about getting a S2 for Kirby Air Riders.
August 30, 2025 at 1:39 AM
That sounds fair, that’s part of why I mostly buy older games, too.

But I do hear a lot of good things about more recent titles despite having a lot of those things you mentioned.

Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled for example.

(Of course, those were only for cosmetics)

I don’t like that Sega did that, but the 360 versions were all made backwards compatible with XB1/S, & you could get them for less than Origins’ $40 so I feel like they felt like they had to do that so Origins would sell well, especially since CD on 360 is the remaster that’s also in Origins.

@kaaboose.bsky.social
I can’t really say I follow what you might mean about “new slop”.

I do know that companies delist certain older revisions of games when their remasters come out, such as with Sega delisting some of their older ports of the Genesis Sonic titles when Origins was new. (1/?)

Sounds fair. Actually, I noticed 1 of the Sonic Heroes links that got removed was of a Scholastic version (I think it’s a PC version they reprinted).

Scholastic has partnered with Sega before, so maybe 1 tipped off the other to help them take the ROMs down?

I've never touched Roblox, only thing I really know about it is the funny Oof sound.

Doesn't really seem like it'd be my thing even if it wasn't a mess.

Same for Sonic.EXE, namely because I'm not into horror/jumpscares & what not.

They seem to be more accepting of fan projects, but there's only so much goodwill they can extend before it starts cutting into their profits & they need to put their foot down or reel it back a bit.

Like with the Sega Genesis Collection on PC with all the mods, for example.
August 27, 2025 at 1:28 AM
Roblox sounds like a dumpster fire from what I've been hearing about it lately.

YT I know has a lot of videos on it, so I know some auto-detection stuff was probably needed at some point, but it really doesn't excuse the bad QA/customer service.
August 27, 2025 at 1:26 AM
I heard some people say there were trying to manipulate YT's search results so help bump up some games that were coming out of the time, heard others say it was because some of Sega's employees misinterpreted a fan support campaign as trolls harassing them.

After a while it just sort of stopped.
August 27, 2025 at 1:22 AM
Ah yeah, that has happened. It's partially why I don't really have a YT channel.

That said, Sega has taken down YT videos themselves before, such as this one time back in the mid 2010s when they went after Shining Force videos for a while.

I don't think they ever explicitly explained why, (1/2)
August 27, 2025 at 1:19 AM
I personally don't think it's imposters, since I'd imagine IA would be better at tracking that sort of thing than say, YouTube, which is infested with them.

There was 1 example where someone was impersonating Sega/Dreams Come True to try & hold videos hostage, if I remember correctly years ago.
August 27, 2025 at 1:17 AM
Sonic I know some aren't happy with how Sega's been handling older content, such as delisting older revisions of some Sonic titles when newer versions come out.

But I don't really think this is Sega trying to go out of their way to destroy history, I think it's just them trying to stop pirates.
August 27, 2025 at 1:07 AM
You're very welcome. ^w^

But yeah, Atlus in particular has done a few remasters of older SMT titles with more likely planned later (3 & 5, for example), & many of their older titles are still on PSN.

That's probably why maybe they took exception to whatever's on IA regarding the series.
August 27, 2025 at 12:59 AM
That's probably not the main/direct cause of all this, but I bet it's probably not helping, ether.

I remember 1 time Sega/WaveMaster sent takedowns to a VG music site, though I think part of that was because that website locks certain features behind donations.

@phantaemon.bsky.social Also, there's some games that Sega's still selling digitally even though they aren't on Steam yet, such as Sonic Heroes being a digital PS2 Classic for PS3 in certain regions. (2/2)
