User blog:Nitrogen218/2017: Thoughts, Hopes, and Predictions

Blog number #1223590, my final entry for 2016. Hello my fellow Wikians, Nitrogen218 here coming into another blog with something I've been thinking about for quite some itime. As the aforementioned title could attest, this blog will be about my own personal feelings and thoughts as weelwe approach the new year. Well, before I start, I'll be the first to admit that this will be about the future of Sonic the Hedgehog series and brand. I do know that not many people here here follow the Sonic series, and may be here for the social aspect(possibly, I cannot verify that completely.) Also, some of you may not want to talk about this and may be simply annoyed with me bringing this up again, and so far on and so forth. Anyway, let's dig in.

Thoughts: Well, honestly, I didn't not see much of this stuff coming for the icon on his 25th anniversary party. With all the (REDACTED) being thrown on Sonic Sonic since the atrocity that was '06, and some promising multiplatform titles like colors and generations, this new data was the hype of the Year. Two new Sonic games announced for 2017 being Sonic Mania and Project Sonic 2017, Sonic in LEGO Dimensions, and Sonic Boom getting a second Season, yes, it would seem our iconic blue hero has risen from his rocky challenges yet again.

This could also be reciprocated toward the Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter page getting 1,000,000+ followers, and even 100,000+ subscribers on YouTube. Yes, indubitably, Sonic has beaten the odds again, with SEGA'S Social Media Manager Aaron Webber taking the reigns for the Twitter page, and even allowing free marketing, memes, and simply playful tomfoolery is practically the best thing to happen since the 90's.
