Holy hell, the Sonic statue/figure is MASSIVE!
I have no idea where I'm going to display this thing. Because I want the box to be visible as well.

I don't know what 100% complete even means with Mania yet but to me a Sonic game isn't done until I've at least found most of the alternative/best paths through the levels after several replays.

I did not expect it to be that large. I have no idea where I'll put that thing.

I originally had a pre-order in for the CE, but it was $100 after taxes here in Canada, so I decided against it. I just couldn't spend that much on it, especially when I thought I wouldn't get it for release day.Same for me, it's almost too big. Also not a fan of the shiny surface of the statue, was expecting it to be more in line with the Generations design.
Also Amazon.de confirmed delivery for the 19th yesterday which sucks big time. And with the CE already being 90 here double dipping really isn't an option.
Anyone have concerns playing this with the Joycon analog sticks vs a real dpad? How did that work out for Shovel Knight?
I'm sure there will be a least a couple of "Sonic was never good" reviews from people who have to compare every platformer negatively against how Mario does things differently but really why worry about it. I know this game is exactly what I want from a Sonic game, the reviews don't matter.

TWO DAYS FOR 100% :/

Thank you for the laugh lol.Statue looks pretty cool, not really sure about the cock ring in the cartridge though.
I played through Shovel Knight on the Switch (just finished it this morning actually!) and didn't have any problems with the Joycon 'D-Pad'. I wouldn't fancy trying to play anything top-down, or a fighter or something where you want to be able to hit the diagonals, but it works fine for side scrollers where you're only really using left/right/up/down.
I'm going to try the joy-cons, since I've heard the Pro Controller D-pad is straight up broken.Yeah I can second this myself. I played through Shovel Knight genderbender mode and decided to play with the joycon grip and I had no issues at all. Sonic Mania should be fine without the Pro Controller.
If you really must know how to feel practice holding right and then using the lower part ofI'm going to try the joy-cons, since I've heard the Pro Controller D-pad is straight up broken.
But I don't have a great feeling about it.

That would explain why Sega held off on showing it off, seems there's zone specific trophies/achievements.The trophy list just appeared. There are zone spoilers in the trophy icons:

No platinum, which is kind of disappointing
I've used it for PPT and for Shovel Knight. It's bad. I understand what Nintendo was going for (symmetry with the other side), but the result reinforces why no one else does the d-pad this way.If you really must know how to feel practice holding right and then using the lower part of
Your thumb to hit down. Its not all that different from a traditional dpad
I actually don't have a Pro controller, the fact that people have resorted to opening up a $70 controller to put tape in it so the d-pad works correctly... does not inspire consumer confidence. I'll gut it out using the joy-cons, hell, maybe I'll use the analog stick!Honestly I alternate between the two without issue. The Pro Controller is only an issue in stuff like PPT where I might accidentally hard drop things (and there's a control scheme which lets you avoid that too).
A lot of the issues with both are a little overblown, I think. Some people do have legitimate qualms with them, but for the majority of players they'll probably fine both acceptable.
That's awesome lol
When I preordered this on the US PSN it gave me an unlock time which I've stupidly forgotten... can anybody tell me when the game unlocks please?
For games that release on Tuesdays on the Switch, when can we expect this to go live? I'd obviously love for Midnight to happen but I honestly don't expect that because that would be too good.
Wasn't sure where to ask, is there an OT for this yet? Also, when does this go live on Switch?

I don't think it's getting a midnight launch anywhere, so usual eShop update time of around 10 AM PST seems likely.
It's technically already live on Switch (that's how we got the leaks), so maybe someone can flip the... switch and put on on the storefront early.
PSN EU version is midnight launch.
Yup, I stand corrected. Apparently it's midnight for both PS4 and Xbox One in most regions, or so I've been hearing.
I can't seem to find a statement from Sega but I'd hope it is on Switch if that's the case.
Well, looks like YouTube is perilous for the next two days. It recommended me a video about the final boss, but luckily I didn't get a good look at it. I mean it's not the end of the world, but a surprise would be nice.
What time are reviews up?
Reviews are gonna be fun.
