I forgot how long the console wars have been raging. I suddenly remember being a kid and reading games magazines and seeing art like this thinking, wow, they sure hate sonic/mario. Can't remember if the art got that graphic though until after Mortal Kombat released.

what the fuck?

I can only speak by Nintendo's Brazilian magazine of back in the day, but was Nintendo Power this grotesque? SEGA definitely wanted to embrace the image of edgier kids of the street, and as always, looked dumb in the end
Nazi's aren't "edgy kids of the street " they are goddmn nazi's my guy. It feels like you are conflating multiple things and its a weird conflation. Like the fucking weird nazi shit is the problem. Not your issue with the guy working at hot topic or whatever

Hitlers greatest gift was being a martyr. His existence has amplified white supremacy and spread it throughout the world. This has always occurred for a long time.

I mean, obviously; shit like that shouldn't be tolerated; I just wondered how they were even approved to be in the magazine to begin with.
Probs Nazi's on staff or people who tolerated them because they were white enough to think it was a joke and not analyze anything that was going on in the picture. Tale as old as time. Its like something awful people coming out later to realize all that anti furry rhetoric was just thinly veiled homophobia that contributed to making the modern nazi movement. Folks don't think about what they allow how it effects people. They just want engagement

probably the former, since they even described the drawing with "a rightwing Sonic". Fucked up stuff

Evidence that console wars have always been, and will always be.

I would argue its much more tame now

Haha, I don't know what's more crazy; the image or the whole "A rightwing Sonic." I'm sorry but I do laugh at all this.

They never printed my Sonic fan art, not even in the "crap" section. Maybe there wasn't enough Nazism for their liking lol.

I half-expect the Sonic Twitter account to do a Notes App screenshot apology for this

They won't because Sega would fire that social media person in a nanosecond, but it would be funny

Lol. I remember those Sonic vs Mario times, and also the hardcore drawings... not the Nazi one tho.


That crap corner is pretty harsh too btw.... some 5 year old kid sends in a Sonic drawing and gets totally destroyed by some cunt.
