Template talk:Sonic games (spin off)

I wouldn't really consider Knuckles' Chaotix a spinoff title... If it is, then why is Shadow the Hedgehog mainstream? Because it's 3D? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Perhaps because Chaotix's two character ring system is so different from every other game which do not have it? Furthermore, there is a proposal at Template talk:Sonic games that would put Shadow in the main template. &mdash;davidh.oz.au 08:44, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

How is Sonic and the Secret Rings a Spin-Off Title?
 * Because Yogiro Ogawa specifically said so. He said it's unrelated to past Sonic titles.  The site that archived all the interviews is down for the moment but as soon as it's up, I'll post a link.GrandMasterGalvatron 20:29, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Until you find a link, it shouldnt be up there.Luigi128 9:52, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't remember hearing Yogiro Ogawa specifically saying "Sonic and the Secret Rings is a spin-off Sonic game". He only said the storyline is different. No more, no less. -87.231.185.217- 13:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Pico and Schoolhouse
Shouldn't Tails and the Music Maker, Sonic's Gameworld, and Sonic Schoolhouse be added to this list? They need to be in some list, and I don't think they deserve their own template.

Brawl
I wouldn't include Brawl as a spin-off. It's mainly a Nintendo game, and Sonic's character is little more than a cameo. The game itself isn't a spin-off, it merely features Sonic. We don't have the SEGA eye toy game or Shenmue in this category, why Brawl? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Philtrauferson (talk • contribs) 18:40, 10 October 2007 (UTC) But what about Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.141.20.109 (talk • contribs)

That's different because the Olympic Games main stars are Mario and Sonic characters. Meanwhile, there is no particular main character in Brawl, it's the same reason why it is not added in the Metal Gear, Legend of Zelda, etc. in other templates. Magiciandude (talk) 03:24, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
