Alex Kidd to be in Sega Superstar Tennis

by George on January 17th, 2008

There hasn’t been a been a Alex Kidd game in close to eighteen years. This is the grand return of Alex Kidd. I think a lot of Alex Kidd fans would have wanted him to have his own game, but this is better then nothing.

Having Alex Kidd and Beat might make up for having Amy, Eggman, Billy Hatcher and Shadow as playable characters.

Make sure to pick this game up Sega Superstar Tennis upcoming March. The game will be avilible on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Playstation 2, Nintendo Wii, and the Nintendo DS. Only the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 versions have been confirmed to have online play.

I hope there’ll be some sort of representation of Phantasy Star I/II/IV/Online in there. Not Universe though. Please god, no Ethan Waber. Please.

Way to many Sonic characters for my liking.. fucking Shadow? WHY?!
Amy? Tails? ALL IT NEEDED WAS SONIC AND ROBOTNIK!
Oh and Billy Hatcher? when was he a Sega Classic? never.

BUT!!!! BUT, I WILL STILL GET THIS GAME DAY 1… Why?
1) I’m a sucker for Nostalgia
2) I’m a sucker for Richard Jacques
3) I’m a sucker for Sega music
4) I’m a sucker for Sega characters in general.
5) I’m a sucker for Sumo Digital + Sega team ups
6) I’m a sucker

This is good news. I’m not sure what a new Alex Kidd game would be like, but if Mario can still cut it, why not Alex Kidd. They just need to lay off the Rock/Scissors/Paper to the death. Nobody likes that.

STROM!, Your Japanese? Because if you speak and read japanese we are in need of someone who does so on the forum!

We often get stuff in Japanese that we can’t translate so if your a Sega fan and you feel like joining the forum what would be great! =)

I really hope the sonic CD music mentioned is from the japanese sound track. That would be sublime. There were these screens posted on Gonintendo. Don’t be deceived. They are from the 360/ps3 versions.

Ya know, if I want ANY Phantasy Star character in this game, it would be Alys from the first Phantasy Star.

I’m hoping for Bonanza Bros and Toejam and Earl. And for the love of God, if Amy and Shadow make it, but Knuckles doesn’t, I might have to still purchase this game on the day it comes out. But I will be very slightly displeased. >=(

Knuckles is in the game but he is a guest reff

That’s crap. I hate how shadow is more important than knuckles now. Oh well, maybe he’s unlockable?

I WANT TOEJAM & EARL IN THIS GAME!!!

I hope Ecco at least gets a cameo in this game.

The Ecco series is constantly overlooked by Sega. I mean seriously, it’s not to hard to give the dolphin a cameo in a sea-side level or something.

Damn, I wants me some Gilius Thunderhead. That would make me buy this even if it was bad. SEGA’s doing fanservice again ^____^.

Knuckles should replace tails as knux is more popular
