Also, I see nothing wrong with my statement. I'm quite the Sonic fan? I'm a visual designer who watches news and planning to become a journalist for a living. And I'm quite the Sonic fan? Let's list all of the things that is wrong with your statement...

1. ''Simply put, Mario is more successful than Sonic. Mario sells more games, Mario survived the console war, and kids know Mario more (to an extent)'': You first talk about the popularity of the series and only the popularity? How much developers are being hired to make Mario games? How much profit is Mario making compared to Sonic? You're missing vital points of your statement, and that's only the beginning.

2. ''I never see Sonic toys, comics, etc. in stores. I see Sonic shirts, but that's about it. At least I see Mario more in stores.'': Obviously because number 1, you're visiting stores where there is a majority of Mario shirts than Sonic and number 2, Nintendo usual partner up with several stores to sell their Mario merch. And it very well know that Nintendo is huge in the merch industry. Sega isn't that company you'll prolly see in your local Walmart, rather you'll see it on Toys R' Us or online.

3: ''Sonic is dead to me now. I will never have a fully satisfactory game in the Sonic series. I want a Sonic Adventure-esque game for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Wii U full of content, and you can play as Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, Amy and Eggman. I will never, ever, ever, EVER get a game like that. EVER.'': Just like that, you just said that you're basically hating the Sonic franchise because you're not getting the game you want. How stupid of a complant is that? That's not even a legit thing to complain about, this is MarioTehPlumber quality stuff you're creating. Sega and Sonic Team can create what ever you want, and you're paying for it. So it's just you buy the game or not. It's simple.

4: ''That's why I went over to Mario. It's more satisfactory to me. The Sonic fanbase is full of drama.'': Every fanbase has drama. Every. There's no fanbase that can't have drama. It's just that the Sonic fanbase is often popularised by the gaming press, forum boards and LPers that we mainly are drama.
