Nintendo and SEGA have announced a worldwide partnership for the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. This will mean that the next 3 Sonic titles will be completely exclusive to Nintendo platforms. This also includes an unannounced title.
President and COO of SEGA of America, John Cheng has said:
“Sonic the Hedgehog has proven incredibly successful on Nintendo platforms and we are pleased to continue our long-standing relationship with Nintendo. As we initiate this new exclusive partnership with the next three titles we believe that Wii U(TM) and Nintendo 3DS(TM) are ideal platforms to showcase the evolution of the Sonic brand.”
