@Tadano You better think fast, because being a minimum wage worker with a college degree is the absolute worst.

For the love of God, WE HAD ENOUGH GLOBAL PSYOPS FOR SEVERAL LIFETIMES!!! I've already had my future ruined once, there is no need to ruin it any further.

@Ace66062 @PurpCat @beardalaxy @frost I knew about his existence for a while, but there was one time I was trying to program a platformer, but didn't want to do a Mario clone like everyone else, and Sonic was way too complex, so I decided that I should do an Alex Kidd clone. When I actually played Alex Kidd, I realized how much personality and wasted potential the franchise had. It just needed to have a game with SMB3 levels of content during the Genesis era instead of the heaping pile of shit known as Enchanted Castle and ditch the rock-paper-scissors boss fights.

>Pulseman and Vectorman were my personal favorite mascots

Pulseman and Vectorman weren't even owned by Sega and they could've easily gone multiplat if they wanted. Alex Kidd was Sega's original mascot, outside of Oppa Oppa and some rabbit character that appeared in instruction booklets for the SG-1000.

Pulseman didn't have a chance because GameFreak was also working with Nintendo on Pokemon which would end up being their cache cow for both companies.

>A lot more people seem to love funny animals than androids and robots.

Sonic and Crash were the only video game funny animal mascots that really saw popularity. People tried to copy Sonic's success with characters like Bubsy, Jazz Jackrabbit, and Rocket Knight, but they didn't find much success. Jazz Jackrabbit was popular with PC gamers, but PC gaming in the 90s was mostly for adults outside of edutainment and simulation games.

Besides Mario, Sonic, and Crash, the most iconic video game mascots (pre-6th gen) are Pac-Man, MegaMan, and Bomberman. None of them are animals.

@frost @PurpCat @beardalaxy The Master System was insanely popular in Brazil.

@frost @PurpCat @beardalaxy South Americans remember him fondly.

@beardalaxy @PurpCat He could've saved you from Chris Chan, but instead he ended up serving lottery and tobacco addicts at a gas station.

@beardalaxy @PurpCat Alex Kidd was a way better mascot and you know it. Sega actually had some great IPs before the whole brand was ruined by furshit.
