Do you want to find a gaming mascot better than Mario? I have a solution for you Sonic the hedgehog. This speedy hedgehog can run faster than the speed of sound and can be a bit of a show off sometimes. The reasons I want you to like sonic are. One: He is the fastest of all of gamings most iconic heroes he also is a big hearted and thinks a lot about others than himself in sonic cd collision chaos act 3 he must deafeat eggman and chase down metal sonic to obtain amy back to his grasp he goes to stardust speedway for the final showdown with metal sonic in sonic X he helps a boy named Chris Thorndyke to save earth from eggman from taking over earth he also helps shadow in his own game to destroy aliens from taking over. My final reason is he Is a big crack-up at times he always comes up with really hilarious compilmients that will make you crack like "Knucklehead" "Goofbrain" all that. That's my reasons why you'll like sonic.
