It’s not easy to find as much honesty as shown by Osamu Ohashi<\/strong>, an executive at SEGA. In a recent statement released by the company<\/a>, the executive mentioned that the biggest challenge he would like to accomplish is seeing Sonic surpassing Mario <\/strong>in all areas, from sales to being a mascot and overall impact.<\/p>\n\n\n

“In short, we want to surpass Mario<\/strong>,” states the document published on SEGA’s recruitment portal. “Sonic was a game developed to compete against Mario\u2026 and it has not yet achieved that goal. We respect Mario, but our objective is to reach and exceed it<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I want people all over the world to play Sonic, including Japan, just like they play Mario games. I want the Sonic movie to be a bigger success than Mario<\/strong>. I would like Universal Studios Japan to create a Sonic Area too. That’s our goal for those who love Sonic,” he emphasizes regarding the significant boost Mario has experienced in the past year, beyond the video game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
