Tails was a child, a minor, at the time, and could'nt fight alongside the Freedom Fighters, he was to have a bigger role in the third season (which, thanks to Power Rangers, did'nt happen)

Fortunately, Tails has a much bigger role in Sonic X since he pilots his Tornado plane.

*Anarchistguy* · 12-02-2003, 08:07 PM

and he's an inventor, pratically a rival to Dr.Eggman (Robotnik to American Fans). Oh, Zarius Two, Tails looks just as old in Sonic X as he was in SatAM Sonic.

2. Those "extra characters" were FAR from "usless" , Sally was Sonic's lover, Bunny Rabott had some very emotional scenes, Antony was comedy releif, and Tails would have had a bigger role if the series had returned for Season 3

Ahem...I only said TAILS was useless. And Sally was Sonic's FRIEND. She became his lover in ep. 26 (Doomsday Project).

*Sonic X rules. It is very faithful to the Sonic Adventure series of games, and fills in a lot of details. The original, Japanese version is enough to make me giddy in anticipation of the next episode. The American dub is crap. What the heck is with Rouge's voice? She sounds like a middle-age hooker - she's only eighteen! Argh!

SatAM was terrific, too, but it wasn't actually based off a game.

Sonic, Tails, Bunny, Dulcy and Rotor were all minors as well, you know. I do believe that Antoine was 18, but I'm not positive. At any rate, the 'minor' argument doesn't really hold true. But Tails was 10, and significantly younger and less experienced than his teenage counterparts. Consequently, the Freedom Fighters (Sally and Sonic in particular) feared both for Tails' safety and the integrity of thier missions if he were to come along, and rightly so.

Yes, I know. I spend waaaaay too much time thinking about this stuff.

As for the third season, I could kick the creator of Power Rangers. It would have easily been the best season.

Anarchistguy: They had kissed before, you know. Just... er, not quite as intensely. Darn, what I wouldn't give for a third season...

Zarius: 'Antoine' was a coward and a moron.

Well, maybe I should know what the hell I'm talking about before I post, eh?

Besides the Zelda episode of Captain N, wasn't there an actual Zelda cartoon that aired on the Super Mario Bros. Super Show. I don't think there were many episodes, though.

Really? It seems kind of odd that they would make a DVD of a show with so few episodes. Unless you mean they were putting the whole Super Mario Bros. Super Show on DVD. In either case, it seems pretty weird to release them on DVD. I don't think either can stand the test of time with kids these days. Of course, there would probably be a few people that might buy them (namely people on this site).

I would say the Super Mario Bros

Zelda and Mario were good shows for sure. They showcased a lot of enemies from Mario1/2 and Zelda 1/2. Animation wasn't too bad either - on par for the 80's I'd say. The only thing that sucked was their 10-15 min duration - not nearly enough time to get a good plot developed. All those shows should have been the standard 30 min length. Come to think of it, it just seems like a really blunt attempt to advertise games to the kids, something they really weren't trying to hide much.

what i never liked about the mario shows is that they mixed Bowser with Wart, but after that i just got used to it

Dontebell · 12-03-2003, 10:56 AM

hey did anyone know there a tv show of frogger ,donkey kong and donkey kong jr. in the 80's?

*Deathknight* · 12-03-2003, 11:25 AM

I guess I'll be the odd one here, I say it's the Japanese version of Rockman.exe (known as MegaMan: NT Warrior here in US.) Although the American version really sucks, the Japanese version is very in depth stories, characters, and very close relation to the games. The animation is almost perfect, the characters look exactly the same as they do in the games. Mario and Zelda were cool but I love Rockman.exe. My only problem with Mario was those horrible songs they did in the SMB3 cartoon.
