Well, this is pretty awesome news. I don't personally care for anything Sega-related outside of Sonic, but it's all good as long as Sonic Retro ends up staying and the general Retro community can end up reaching a wider scope of people.
Also, please excuse my gullibility. I've been oblivious to the Sonic Scene and its nuances for the longest time. I grew up with with shit like the IGN and Gamefaqs boards, after all.
You need to expand your Sega related horizons beyond Sonic dude. Trust me, there are other great Sega game series besides Sonic. This side of the plateau is beautiful. Join us. You know deep down you want to. It is the right thing to do. *attempts to place in trance*

...gee aren't you fun. Stop being a mystic, geeze. Save this stuff for Glisp's happy hour in the Sega Retro oldbies forum in a few years.

I can't believe how many people fell for it.

Glad the Sega Retro thing is legit, though. As long as you don't keep it exclusive to Sega stuff, which doesn't seem to be the case.

I think I learned something yesterday. Hell, since time-zones here are different, when it was the next day Sonic Retro was still Sega Retro, so I thought the change was actually for real.

Anywho, I certainly hope that SEGA Retro is a large sucess. If I have the chance in the future, I'll possibly contribute.

I didn't realize taking away the oh-so-precious GSD for a day and making a fake ragepost would incite so much fucking rage in you all.
Sarcasm? I only saw, like, two or three people who were actually concerned about it- everyone else seemed to wholeheartedly support the idea of scrapping the Sonic side of Retro altogether. Can't we at least make Sega Retro the default title and cram the Sonic forums in a niche somewhere until they shrivel away like vestigial organs? It's for the best.
We need to gather a list of names for every person who actually fell for this. We could do a
lot of constructive things with that sort of data!

Heh, I just played along. I would never really be that fickle =P Sega Retro IS a great idea though. Can't wait to see it blossom with the help of other sonic retro members, even you glisp

I for one think this is a great idea! It gives us more topics to talk about, and it fits especially since SR is second to Sega themselves. SS, you are an amazing Admin, and woman. Here's to both Sonic Retro and the new Sega Retro! :D

I don't believe you.
And why do you insist on picking on Glisp? You two aspies need to stick together.

I see this as a nice way to get exposure to the other worlds of Sega.
Totally saw this coming, too

I saw absolutely all of this coming, and I think it's a great idea. Long live sonic retro, and its little brother Sega Retro.
I still vote for harder sign-ups and more strict moderation on idiocy. Shark week should never go away.

Who said he was picking on me?

I'll admit I fell for it because it was just so believable. The admins are really great actors. One of the things I love about these boards.

Although I didn't fall for it per se, I wished it to be true. So, there's not going to be a dedicated Sega Retro forum? Then here's requesting General Sega Discussion. :3

I'm surprised anybody didn't get that this was a prank.
I mean, even if it
wasn't April 1st... ragequitting over the Sonic 4 thread would be totally out of character. Plus, the "FUCK YOU IT'S CANCELLED!" meme. I mean, come on.
Remember, you can always trust Retro to do the classy thing.

I'm excited for SEGA Retro, too. It'll be fun to see how the expansion plays out. Classic Phantasy Star holds as dear a place in my heart as Sonic.
