Wow! You really took the time to think about this. I didn't even finish reading it and I already know that you got a very complete and fearseable solution.

I'll read the cutscenes and the story later... Anyway, it does not seem like this solution is a realistic one. There are a LOT of playable characters and as systems are now, no real code can be recycled from previous releases (maybe except for sonic only). Many playable characters mean that there's a butload of testing to do and that may not be doable... Some characters would need to be dropped out (depending of their "air time").

Sonic '06 is an example of that discrace. They wanted so many playable characters that it ended up being an obvious beta. Anyway, this could do a really good ~60€ game that lasts for many hours.
