Nintendo's relationship with Mario fans has worsen since the announcement of "Paper Mario: Color Splash". I've never seen a backlash that big come that fast. There are multiple petitions to cancel or change it. When Sonic 06 came out, everybody was disappointed and hated it. Color Splash has only had one trailer so far and everybody is already disappointed and hates it. Congratulations, Nintendo. You just cracked the highscore.

SEGA has more interesting characters than Nintendo, in the main series at least. That's why I think they should put RPG exclusives into Mario&Sonic or other sports games. Dimentio, Fawful, Lord Crump, Kammy Koopa, Dreambert, Popple, Antasma, the list goes on. Sure, Paper characters would be kind of hard to intergrate into an action-y 3D world but I think they could do it with a few visual tricks or they could just make 3D models for them that look like origami or something. Just the designs of some of these guys could get people interested into the games. Mario has a wider variety of designs than Sonic, so they might as well use them. Dreambert and Antasma are about dreams/nightmares, so they could have something to do with the Dream Events.
