@ Leo 656...Ive seen the Sally hack.

Anyway I think thats a pretty big exaggeration, that Sonic wouldn't be around without the comic or cartoon. It helped the popularity for those who didnt play games.

Sonic was a game character first. Its true alot of other characters didnt do as well but Sonic was/is Sega's mascot and direct rival (at the time anyway) to Mario.

Plus alot of those 3rd party characters were created because of Mario and Sonic. Also platformers were big back then...like shooters are today.
