Interesting, i wonder why they backed out, maybe because sonic was mostly silent in the older games? but every character was mostly silent back then, including tails and eggman, yet classic tails and eggman do have voices

Just give him the OVA voice cowards

Surprisingly, they wanted to get Jaleel White, but they were unable to contact her in time. It seems Sonic Team just has a habit of forgetting people’s phone numbers or something, because the same thing happened with the artists of the tracks they originally wanted to use for Shadow the Hedgehog.

I think him not speaking makes him unique and helps him seem a little more different from modern.

Honestly, if they DO give him a voice, I'd want to see if they could use Antony Del Rio who voiced Blue Beetle in Injustice 2.

I never cared, but I always thought it was because he never talked in the classic games

^You really only think that until you realize that Classic Tails and Classic Eggman have voices.

...

Nevermind then

@GAME043010 in fact, Sonic talks more than Eggy and Tails in the Classic games, he has voice lines and they don't

Classic Sonic had a voice in SegaSonic the Hedgehog, no it's not Junichi Kanemaru, but yeah, he had voice lines in that game. Same with Egghead
