Yeah... this is old as dirt though.

I clicked on the link and saw the video.  I saw a forum link with a bunch of fans arguing over the validity of a bunch of yellow squares, and a video showcasing graphics that are probably about right for the 1993 era.

In fact, if you look at the date at the end of the video, it SAYS 1993 on it.

So, are you trying to say there is a "new" game coming out based on the SatAM, or are you trying to say that there was or used to be a game based on it?  Or are you just drawing attention to the fact that there was actually a trailer at one point for a Sonic SatAM video game?  Because you're all-caps emphatic about this, and it's rather confusing what you're trying to say.

EDIT: Oh look, the person who posted the video to begin with had this to say about it:
"Footage of the cancelled video game based on the SatAM cartoon series!

From the looks of it, it would have been a great game, it's a shame it was never made!"

So, again, not sure why you're so excited about this when it's something that's apparently been around forever.  I didn't know this existed, but now I do, and it still isn't that big a deal.

Easy, guys. It's a joke. GT posted the video as a reminder that, yes, at one point a Sonic game based on the SatAM show was in production. But despite what that pic says: there's no way in Hell a game based on SatAM is being produced for current gen systems. And as the original prototype was woefully incomplete, we most definitely will not be seeing it distributed in any way, shape or form from Sega.

Clearly this is someone's idea of a joke. Either that thread's OP is a dirty rotten troll or there be a mischievous SatAM fan working on the ESRB website.

I'd care more if that video wasn't posed on this board already.

What if rather than making it's own game, SatAM was jammed into the already existing plot line. I wouldn't put it past Sega these days.

I would, since SatAM and Archie're a purely North American continuity, and everything's been steered towards making the Japanese continuity the universal one since Sonic Adventure came out. Even Archie's art style has been standardised since Sonic X.

True. I forgot to take that into account.

I didn't mean to be overly gruff about it, I was just confused about how serious this was intended to be.  Sorry about that.

And yeah, Archie Sonic is probably as close as anyone will ever get to having a modern SatAM.  As a SatAM fan, I am okay with that; I think having my DVD set is enough, I don't want them creating some new SatAM or trying to revive it or whatever.  Given the evidence of how the fans and the franchise in general have been treated over the last several years, I think I'm glad SatAM was lost in the cracks of time.  At least this way, they can't screw it over.

If the old staff was hired back, and I mean all of them, I think it could work. Although that's impossible with Eggman dead.

Long John Baldry - the original AoStH Eggman - died.

Deem Bristow - the English Sonic Adventure Eggman - died.

Jim Cummings is still alive and still working.

Oh... I thought they all died. My mistake.

The SatAm game/demo/prototype would be a wonderful easter egg in a Sonic 20th Anniversary game. 'Nuff said.
