A fun little diversion!! I’m not a huge fighting game junkie or anything. I had Street Fighter II for Genesis and Virtua Fighter for Saturn and that was about it until Smash Bros came along, so I can’t really speak to the gameplay (which from what I’ve read is considered uninspiring), but idk! I had fun!

Anyway, I don’t have a lot to say about this one, so let’s talk about how I felt about fighting each character!

Knuckles: I did not feel great about kicking his ass! And I did kick his ass, btw. He was a huge pushover. I’m gonna assume it’s because he didn’t feel right hurting me. I’m sorry, cutie!

Amy: I have a bit of an embarrassing crush on her but I also hate how she used to creep on Sonic, so yeah I guess I felt a bit less conflicted! She almost KOed, me though! ... and I kinda didn’t hate that? Again, embarrassing crush.

Bark: He kinda cute but I don’t have any particularly strong feelings about him!! He big. I like big!

Espio: I’ve never really had any strong feelings about him! He’s cool and I like his whole ninja-esque deal, but yeah.

Myself: Oh no, the dreaded mirror match!! Honestly my clone gave me the hardest match by far until very late in the game!! He took a couple tries to get past!! Getting knocked out by myself gave me, uh, feelings.

Nack: What a freaking pushover lmao!!!

Bean: I have the randomest crush on this little bomb pervert!!! I love how hyperactive he is, and I bet he’s such a little sadist!!!

Sonic: NOOOOOOO! WHAT A FORESEEABLE PROBLEM!!! Yeah, I know it’s just a silly fighting game but I was genuinely distressed to fight my big bro!!! I’m gonna blame that for the fact that he kicked my ass the first time I faced him (but it was very intense and competitive and I almost got him both rounds) and I barely beat him on my second attempt (had to go all three rounds), lmao. Seriously, though. DO NOT LIKE FIGHTING MY HEDGEHOG. Sparring? Sure. But straight up actually fighting? DO. NOT. LIKE.

Metal: He terrifies me, and appropriately enough he threw me around like a training dummy a bunch of times before I figured out a strategy to beat him.

Eggman: lol, whatever Eggman. Yeah I have quite a bit of trauma from being tortured by this asshole, but I’ve also been kicking his ass for as long as I can remember.
