Well yeah, I should have finished this sooner but I still have something to slip in nonetheless. Apologies O.o
Sonic the Hedgehog
SEGA
1991
Sonic is the mascot character for SEGA (replacing Alex Kidd in 1991), thus having featured in a series of videogames established by said videogame corporation. The games were often seen going head-to-head against those of Nintendo's Mario series from the first game's exposure through to SEGA's departure from the console market, and since then Sonic's adventures were moved onto other consoles. Most gamers know him by his cobalt blue body, his faster-than-the-speed-of-sound running and his rolling jump and spinning attacks. Sonic also doesn't have one set timeline; several variations of his story were seen since the first game's release, whether seen in the earlier titles, the comic strips, publications in the US/UK, the movie, its 4 TV shows or the post-Sonic Adventure titles.
The basic storyline for the games themselves show Dr Ivo Robotnik (later referred as Dr Eggman from Sonic Adventure onwards) developing a scheme to take over the world, and it's up to Sonic to put a stop to him by going through many levels (often referred to as "acts") to reach his goal. On top of that, collecting the Chaos Emeralds (usually seven) in the game's "Special Stages" would bring the player to the game's good ending sequences.
Within his time, Sonic was shown to have surprassed Mario on various occasions, and has even showed light cameos in other SEGA exclusives and an episode of The Simpsons, as well as having a fruit fly embryonic development gene named after him.
