You have to feel for Mighty No. 9 and its fans. Based on its Kickstarter campaign, we should have seen something beautiful, but what we got instead wasn’t, well, beautiful. It was pretty ugly and rightly critically mauled because it turned out to resemble something that belonged on the PS2 with half the charm.
Hell, things are so bad the game that even Sonic the Hedgehog, who hasn’t been in a good game himself since the early 2000’s, decided to have a pop.
Congrats on the launch, @MightyNo9!

All Keiji Inafune has to do is come back with two words in a tweet: “Sonic Boom”. This guy agrees:
@sonic_hedgehog @MightyNo9 it’s also better than Sonic Boom: Rise of The Lyric. Just.
