The later games had him abandon The Floating Island for some reason, probably because SEGA assumed that Sonic needed another buddy.

I didn't like the direction that Sonic Underground went, but that cartoon did about the most accurate version of Knuckles so far. (I'm talking about the first episode that he appeared in.)
I think Sega generally don't care that much about consistency about Sonic's world or characters beyond their general personalities, they can't even seem to decide if other humans besides Eggman exist. I wouldn't exactly be surprised if it turned out of most games featuring Knuckles are made without ever considering the existence of Angel Island or the Master Emerald, instead just assuming he's one of Sonic's buddies with no other obligations. I think the worst example of this is that Blaze alternates between being from another world and from the future depending on whether or not Silver is around.

But uh, yeah. Still hard to imagine Knuckles acting like this in the games, being aggressive and condescending seems more like Shadow.

Did anyone really think this movie was going to be more than mediocre?
