Stylus?

Has this been confirmed? I haven't seen any stylus use or special stages yet for the DS version. MetaRyan 19:22 10 August 2010 (PST) —Preceding unsigned comment added by MetaRyan (talk • contribs)

Is the Nintendo Accion article legitimate?

It says Amy is in the game. It mentions that the "Red Wisp is DS only", saying it like the Red Wisp's exsistance was known long before it was known it was DS-only. It also says that the Quick Step is returning, although I didn't see it in the E3 demo. Should the article be called legitimate?

Possible FA nomination

Well, I might end up trying bringing this to FAC, but I feel like I'm missing something. Any suggestions? JOE BRO 64 19:34, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@TheJoebro64: I feel like the article could include more information about the Nintendo DS version, just specifically for Gameplay, Reception and Development. You could also talk more about the OST and the creation process of the song Reach for the Stars and Speak With Your Heart if there's any interviews/documentation of that. ~ P*h3i (talk to me) 22:30, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sonic Colors Ultimate

I'm just wondering if the recently announced Sonic Colors Ultimate will be put on this page or if it will have its own page, since it's going to be a re release. JH2006 (talk) 16:43, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If it's just the same game without any changes except for a resolution/frame rate boost, it'll just be covered here. Sergecross73 msg me 17:07, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sonic Colors: Ultimate Twitter Videos

Several people on Twitter have reported several graphical issues and bad sound mixing, covered by Eurogamer. Shadowboxer2005 (talk) 10:43, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sonic Colours sold 4 million

The source for Sonic Colours selling over 4 million was removed for "not a reliable source." However, this same wikipedia page uses https://www.sonicstadium.org/2021/06/famitsu-interview-says-sonic-colors-ultimate-targeting-new-and-young-fans/ as a source which itself cites an interview saying Sonic Colours sold over 4 million. On the Sonic Stadium website, open up the tweet, then open the top right part of the interview where he says on the 3rd question on that page it sold over 4 million. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.192.165.53 (talk) 13:20, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fansites sites such Nintendo Everything or Sonic Stadium are not considered usable sources on Wikipedia. Both should be removed/replaced. WP:VG/S has a list of a bunch of sources that are considered reliable if you need help finding an alternative acceptable source. Sergecross73 msg me 14:15, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But you are using Sonic Stadium on this page. Citation 61 on this page. If fan sites arent allowed it should be removed.

I agree. I'll remove it. I wasn't aware of it being there until just now. Sergecross73 msg me 14:25, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
