Sonic’s classic line: “I’ll fight it in court, but I don’t think they’ll accept ‘gotta go fast’ as a medical condition.”
-
2022 really has been a crazy year for Sonic
-
He was basically the one who gave the design and all that and left when sonic 06 was created so basically it didn’t affect SEGA or the Sonic Team but this is still pretty shocking
-
Yuji Naka is maybe one of the creators who made the world's fastest hedgehog alive, but he's not fast enough to escape from the authorities himself.
-
For anybody wondering, Yuji Naka was fired before Balan Wonderworld even came out. Naoto Ohshima, among various other figures like the Human Resources department, had him fired for harming business relationships. Yuji Naka tried suing Square Enix, and publicly denounced the company. Following the firing, Ohshima and Naka had a fallout, with Naka getting really petty and retroactively trying to take credit away from Ohshima on games they had previously collaborated on, even removing Ohshima from older photos. Yuji Naka went on a blocking rampage on Twitter around this time as well.

That's unfortunate. He and his friend were the reason the franchise is around and kicking in the first place 😔
-
It’s sad to see a man who went from creating one of gaming’s most iconic characters to go on making a terrible game and now to be arrested
-
Yuji is getting ready for Stage 1: City Escape
-
Yikes. 2022 has been a big year for controversy. Almost every community I'm apart of has had controversy this year which is really upsetting.
-
He’s actually a Co-Creator the actual Creator is Naoto Oshima.
-
I never expected that the co-creator would be arrested-
-
When I first heard, he was arrested. I was like, please don't let it be something creepy. I'm glad it was just white collar stuff.
-
The "Mr Yuji Naka is alright" joke was so good man. As well as the nothing could go wrong joke. I love how even when talking about subjects like this, you still add just enough comedy to balance out the dark situation.
-
I don't think Sonic would easily disappear with a co-creator being arrested.
-
Never in my days did I expect to see those words put together in a sentence.
-
Honestly it's sad how many L's he's taken since he left SEGA. He had some mid games on the Kinect i think, then Balan, now THIS. Not saying he shouldn't go to jail, he did commit a crime after all, but it's sad because he made some really good games and inspired so many future devs
-
This has been a wild year.
