Tails Tube

Discussion in 'General Sonic Discussion' started by Blue Blood, Mar 24, 2022.



  1. No Japanese audio on this episode. That’s disappointing. I can’t stand Knuckles’ and Amy’s voices. Knuckles’ is just bad and Amy sounds like she’s 40.

    I don’t care for Amy’s lampshading of why they changed Fang’s moniker. I did kind of appreciate Knuckles’ barely audible, “I like his hat though.”

    Anyway, I don’t mind if the series continues with its non-stop references, self-reflexivity, and general masturbatory writing that borders on fan fiction as long as it’s contained here.

    The Japanese dub will be uploaded at a later date, according to their twitter.

    Anyways, I love how even the TailsTube episodes are met with such incredible division. Going between posts like this:

    and this:

    Is giving me whiplash, but at least it's funny.

    Not really feeling this new “Asshole Knuckles”. Why would Sonic, Tails and Amy even hang out with him if all he does is talk shit?
     
  4. Wouldn't be a problem if he was allowed to eat shit :V

    I wonder if that was a small reference to the hat we wears in the OVA.

    Allow me to thoroughly celebrate the death of that stupid shitty split worlds theory and classic character never existing in the modern era.

    (And the canonizing of GG Games too)

  8. Sega are always changing their minds about this shit, but its a lot simpler to just say "this series takes place on a fictional version of earth with a linear timeline" as opposed to... whatever the fuck they were going for.

    Didn't Christian Whitehead mention something about a "Mania universe" once? Maybe Iizuka saw it the same way as the Mania team, who were developing the game from the perspective that the post-97 games basically didn't exist. Then that split was represented as a narrative choice in Forces.

    He interpreted Mania as being a post-Generations timeline.

    The split was a thing a few years ago, as confirmed by Ian Flynn in the BumbleKast (though I don't think it was defined if it was a timeline split or a different dimension). But it's over for a while, and officially confirmed now.

    EDIT: Actually, TailsTube #4 had already confirmed that Classic Sonic was Modern Sonic's past, so at least it couldn't be a different dimension.

    OR
    Them acknowledging Chaotix, Fighters and SegaSonic onscreen is making the lack of rereleases of those games increasingly maddening.

    SEGA, seriously, I will buy another Origins DLC if you put all the missing games back in.

    Do they know how to port Knuckles' Chaotix though?
     
  14. Ah, crap. It even said it in the description of the video. I was at the gym and didn't read it.

    I assumed so. That's how I understood it at least.

    Even if my tone was a bit harsh towards the general tone of the brand, I genuinely don't mind this stuff for Tails Tube. The format is already a bit 4th-wall-breaking inherently, so having constant metatextual elements and references to stuff isn't as off-putting as when you're trying to be immersed in a video game.

    They used actual footage from the games except for SegaSonic which got a brand new artwork... am I the only one who find this strange ?

    We had no way of capturing new footage from an arcade machine ourselves, and Sega doesn't allow us to use footage captured from an emulator.

    At least Sonic the Fighters is available as a game in Lost Judgment and the soon-to-be-released Yakuza 8 Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth

    OR
    I mean, no? Not really. That's about as much of a win as telling people that Xenia exists and Fighters runs good on it.

    That’s fascinating, considering how lenient SEGA is with romhacks and the like, not to mention that it’s their own IP in the first place.
