Project Needlemouse is...Sonic 4, Episode 1
Yay sonic is BACK! I gotta say I am a huge sonic the hedgehog fan so when I read this and saw that it was coming out for the wii this summer I was pretty stoked. Sega has finally announced a 2D downloadable game with 3D visuals that is part of the Project Needlemouse buildup that they have been pushing since last September. For those of you who do not know "Needlemouse" refers to Sonic's codename when it was being pitched. From what is sounds like, it looks like Sonic will be the only playable character and it will have all the same original Sonic roots and traditional mechanisms. This game is a whole new story arc, though it is taking place after Sonic & Knuckles left off. Here is a quote by Ken Balough, associate brand manager,"As mentioned, I think the best way to view it is as a first part in a much larger adventure. When Sega released Sonic 3, ultimately it was the part 1 of a story that saw its conclusion in Sonic & Knuckles. In that same spirit, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is a bigger story, and this is that first chapter. I think it's also safe to say that by the end of the episode one, fans will be very excited to see what's in store for episode two!" Regardless I am super pumped and looking forward to playing this game, as I have every single sonic game known to man :)
