Sonic gets a redesign and new games for 3DS and WiiU

Sonic looks mostly the same, the only difference I pick up on is the scarf and wrapping around his legs. Knuckles is the one I see the biggest change, having grown in size by quite a deal. This is part of a major marketing push by SEGA to make Sonic relevant to a new generations of gamers and will be accompanied by a television series, which on the surface sounds bizarre with Eggman taking Sonic to court in one episode.

I am fine with the new designs. In fact, I kind of like them. What are your thoughts? Comment your opinion below.
