Sonic Unleashed: New Wii Screens + New Character Info

Over on the Sega Nerds Forum a member named STORM! has acquired the Dengeki Magazine featuring the first chapter of the Sonic Unleashed storyline. The beginning of the comic depicts the opening cinematic in the game with Sonic attacking Eggman’s new base but being turned into the Werehog and falling back to earth. Things take a turn for the strange though as in the next scanned images of the magazine Sonic is already being followed by the Tip/Chip (The proper translation of the name is yet to be outed).

Tip/Chip appears to be a small chihuahua with fairy like wings who is apparently able to fly. The character seems to be the comic element of the pairing after being shot in the face by two ice creme cones. I swear I’m not making this up! Also in the strip features a human looking character (The Ice creme salesman). he stands out for his overly cartoon style as opposed to the Anime style of previous human Sonic character like Princess Elise. Obviously, there’s no news on if either character will appear in Sonic Unleashed the game or if they are exclusive to the Manga adaptation.

Also scanned by STORM! are two pages of a different magazine featuring Wii screenshots of Sonic Unleashed, or Sonic World Adventure as it’s being called in Japan. No new levels are shown but it does appear to show 2D and 3D gameplay with the Rush feature intact. Both scans can be found below but be sure to check out this link to see the rest of the Dengeki Magazine scans.

The fuck, SEGA?!

Call me one of the fooled every time, I love to live oblivious. =)

Hopefully this character is just a Manga-exclusive character, but to be honest I kinda like him, he has that humor factor x3

GTFO, Soul. ^_^
God, this is stupid.

omfg that dog is so cute1!!!11
…*coughs* Chances are its probably exclusive to the manga…but every major Sonic title since Sonic 2 has introduced a new character.
TIME TO LEARN TO SUCK IT UP, BOZOS. You should’ve been bitching when Knuckles came out if you wanted the trend to reverse!
What I’m concerned about is if the human characters will actually LOOK like that. That ain’t Pixar-looking, that’s an abomination. ;____;

Its only a freaking comic. Do you people actually believe there will be an ice cream guy and whatever the heck that creature is, will be in the game? 😐

I wouldn’t worry about this new charecter, it seems excusive to the magna, but even if it does appear it in game, it’s safe to say it will have next-to-no role; Sega’s already confirmed the game’s going to be 95% Sonic.
The Wii scans looks good, decent anyway. I don’t see why everyone’s so worried about the Wii version, it’s being developed seperately from the 360/PS3 version to make each version the best it can be. I’m personally not worried.
