Sonic got memed on and made fun of for so long during Zoomers lives, once they became teens/adults old enough to have nostalgia, it combined with the "post-ironic" culture they have where they love everything hated on like Limp Bizkit and Nickelback and Space Jam and The Phantom Menace, so the fact that they remember Sonic being a joke online, only makes them jerk off the 3D era more

And like, that's what it is, I don't hate the 3D era part of me is glad it gets more love now just like 3D Mortal Kombat, but when they act like it was peak Sonic, it's borderline offensive because Sonic was fucking literally coming for Mario's throat in the early-mid 90s, he was way more popular even if games didn't sell more
