It does exist, it's on Act 3, the one with the first quick-step section, the only way you can get to it is boost jump followed by using a laser. It's technically the first time you get to use the drift, but since most people miss it they learn about the drift on Sweet Mountain. Dolphin Free Look ftw
About the Pata-Bata Badnik, turns out there never was one. Skip to 1:15 in the video below and and see where that infamous screencap came from. It is just a buzz bomber, but easily looks like something else because it's so low quality.

Yep, I believe you're right about that. Always thought there was something sketchy about that pic, seeing as it was the only one of its kind and no one could seem to find the source.
If anything, it looks like a re-purposed pata-bata badnik to me. Seriously, it looks nothing like a wasp or a bee. You'd figure that a buzzbomber would look like one or the other.
Just watch the damn video, progress through the screens frame-by-frame if you want. It's clear as day that this supposed "beta pata-bata" is just the result of a coincidental snapshot of one of the buzzbombers from the footage. Here's a snapshot taken at 1:19, which is exactly where that original picture came from: See the buzzbomber at the side? Looks familiar, eh? Here it is blown up: Case closed, mystery solved. Hell yes.
You didn't watch the video, did you? I always thought it was a Pata-Bata, and then upon watching this video most closely you can clearly see it's a Buzzer. The whole point of my post was that there's undeniable proof that is ISN'T and never was Pata-Bata.
I did watch the video. Just because I didn't include the video itself in the quote, doesn't mean I didn't watch it. Guess I'm blind as fuck too, cause it doesn't look like a Buzzer to me. Let's leave it at that.
It's got the body of a Pata-Bata, but the bulb/stinger of a Buzz Bomber. The developers used a Polymerization card on a Buzz Bomber and a Pata-Bata during Colors' development.
Sonic Colors hasn't sold 1 million units in the US (SEGAbits) I don't know it very well could be an oversite. I would like to hear SEGA's side of all this...
Million sellers in the US aren't common among Wii third-party games. I sincerely doubt that not selling a million copies means the game wasn't a success.
Really? I remember reading a while back that this was one of the best selling Sonic games since Sonic 2 or something of the sort? What happened?
