The Mothership Lets the Cat Out of the Bag
On page 40 of Sega Sammy Holdings’s public earnings presentation, which you can read in English here, the parent company of Sega has essentially cemented ports of Sonic Generations coming to the Nintendo 3DS and PC along with the already confirmed XBOX 360 and PS3 ports.
Generations, along with Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, is listed as a major title for the company in the next fiscal year. The platform listing was made on both Japanese and English language reports, so this doesn’t appear to be a misprint.
If it holds, the news confirms earlier murmurs of the game coming to the 3DS, and it’s also welcome news for desktop users who have been yearning for a recent Sonic port for some time now.
We will bring you more as it becomes available. Thanks to Woun for the original tip from the Japanese listing.

Really? PC?!
Hooray for PC owners!….and pirates. Seriously Sega, you’re just presenting this game as piratebait if it comes to this system.
And you put it on the 3DS but you leave the Wii out?……unless it’s coming to Project Cafe, then I’m confused.
Then again…..I bet Sonic Generations 3DS is actually Sonic Rush Generations. There’s no way it can handle the Hedgehog Engine, it’s not that powerful. Maybe it’ll feature levels from the mainstream handheld canon (the Game Gear games, Sonic Pocket Adventure, the Advance series, and the Rush series), whereas the console games get the levels from the mainstream console canon. I worry about how classic Sonic’s gameplay is going to be, because we ALL know how great Dimps is with creating physics that the PR team says have an “unrivalled classic feel” when they were creating the infamous Sonic 4: Episode I.
I don’t understand the need to mention pc piracy, the xbox & ps3 have been hacked and modded and play illegal backups, it’s a huge no-no but fact of the matter is, it’s gonna get pirated in one way or another. Sucks cuz it’s not fair for the developers.
I agree with Diego, all three home consoles can be pirated to play backed up games, so arguing PC piracy seems rather irrelevent
It’s Project Cafe. =P
@Skynix:
It’s not Project Cafe. Look at Virtua Tennis 4, it also says “PC” like Generations, but, VT 4 has already been announced for the computer, so “PC” in that PDF means “Personal Computer”, not “Project Cafe”.
PC?
OMG, FINALLY! YES.
