http://youtu.be/U5ZXAucBpAM These days Sonic the Hedgehog is little more than a ghost. Sure, he's enjoyed a few more than half decent titles over the last few years and he's still a heavily felt presence in the gaming world but I remember a day when he was comfortably contending with Mario for best gaming mascot of all time. Again, you could probably have your pick of many images from the Sonic franchise and call them iconic, but I'd argue that the most iconic was his very first iteration on the original Sonic the Hedgehog title screen. To me, this image defines Sonic even today as this sort of cocky, semi-arrogant badass who seems to scream "uh-uh, you ain't seen nothin' yet," despite never actually speaking for many years. A classic image I'm sure you'll agree; one that's appeared time and time again over the course of Sonic's rich history.
