Do you remember the very original 16-bit Sonic the Hedgehog that came out on the Sega Megadrive (Genesis)? This game has become one of the symbols of that era and flung console sales skyward. On which platforms only did not the games about Sonic and his company come out. Now it's the turn of the iPod. "We thought that Sonic would be perfect for the iPod, and fortunately Apple thought that too," said Simon Jeffrey, president and head of Sega of America. Jeffrey said that the game will be an exact copy of the original in 1991, and it can already be downloaded from the iTunes Store for $ 5.
The fifth generation of iPod combines improved screen capabilities, making game creation more desirable for many developers. These iPods have already released a Harmonix Phase music title, EA's The Sims Bowling, iQuiz and Peggle. And now Sonic the Hedgehog. Of course, the player will not be a replacement for a full-fledged portable console, however, it is definitely better than games on mobile phones. ')
