Need I say more?

Bets are Sonic and Mario will both appear in Brawl together before this game is released though.

In case you don't believe this, more proof.

EDIT: Okay, so the Nintendo Discussion thread beat me to it. Okay here's what I don't get, why do some games get restricted to one thread, but other games don't?

EDIT2: I love this line in one of those interviews.

Q: Why does Mario get top billing over Sonic?

Jeffery: Sega's being respectful. Mario is older than Sonic, and we'd like to give the old man some respect by letting him go first.

Kaplan: Here's the bottom line: He's Italian, he's really sexy, and he can get more women than Sonic.

Well, there is some interesting news. And to think that years ago, Mario and Sonic were like oil and water...!

It's simply because someone decided to bring it up YESTERDAY in that thread. He could have made a separate thread had he wanted to. There is no "restriction". You were simply late to the party.
