Never trust the 300 IQ of someone who’s name is as cool as Robotnik but goes by Eggman anyway.
especially since canonically (in SA1) Sonic started calling him that to make fun of him and he just went with it. on the one hand props for just saying to the haters “you have no power here”, but at the same time like… breh?
It’s a Resident Evil VII: Biohazard situation. He’s always been Eggman in Japan. Sega of America, being a weirdly independent and opinionated entity from Sega of Japan, made up a whole ridiculous backstory about “Ivo Kintobor,” and that influenced the US manuals, future translations, the SatAM cartoon show, and to a lesser extent the Archie comics.
The exchange in Sonic Adventure was Sonic Team proper trying to syncretize these localization differences. Unfortunately, unlike Resident Evil being called Biohazard in Japan, Doctor Robotnik is blatantly the cooler name for the character, even if it is a cold-war relic.
That is one thing I hate about Classic Sonic…
Perfect place to use the Robotnik name…
They even lampshade that in Sonic Generations.
Modern Eggman: “You’re not in a position to demand anything, you nasty little pincushion!”
Modern Tails: “Eggman! How?”
Classic Eggman: “He had a little help.”
Classic Tails: “Dr. Robotnik!”
Classic Eggman: “Oh, nobody calls me that anymore.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yE7pDteYaaM&t=10m30s
“Please, don’t call me by my name. I will exclusively be referred to by a rude nickname given to me by my mortal enemy. I talked to the future version of myself and we both agree it’s the way better name.” ???
It’s not just a recipe… But a special recipe to make food.
It’s not just a dog… But a special dog that is a good boi.
It’s not just water… But special water that
isgets things wet.Edit: updated to avoid the controversy.
water that is wet
Oh geez, better be careful making controversial statements like that.
But water is wet, since it is covered in water
If i have one water it is not covered by water
I keep seeing this guy referred to as Eggman but he was always called Dr. Robotnik in my games. What’s up with that?
Region differences. Japan called him Eggman. But the US called him Dr. Robotnik at first to sort of make him more intimidating I guess. Both regions sort of merged the names over time.
Sonic: “We’re on our way to the Space Colony ARK, so I guess that means we’re going too.”
(Shadow '05)Or…
Sonic: “Look, ramps!”
Tails: “We can use those as ramps!”
(One of the Sonic Boom games)I really need to do a Sonic marathon to see all these gems. I heard Sonic 06 is truly special, but Sonic Boom is up there.
Sonic '06 actually has some of the best story in the series. Shadow is at his peak, and Silver’s story is good too. It’s just Sonic’s story (especially with Elise) and the gameplay that ruins it. Mostly the gameplay. But even with the gameplay problems, the level design is pretty good, as you can see if you play the Project '06 fan remake.
It’s like they were prepared to make Shadow 2 but Shadow 1 didn’t realize that didn’t do so well so they pretended Sonic had anything to do with the story.
Other than the fact that the majority of Silver’s story revolves around chasing Sonic, I guess that could be the case…?
Yeah but Sonic barely has any interaction with Silver outside of one fight and the latter going “Oh wait you’re a red herring and Memphis Tenessee is a dickpenis.”
Blaze doesn’t even go “Oh hey Sonic. Remember Sonic Rush? Me neither.”
Eggman was the original Race Realist.
