The result of the debate was Redirect to Sonic Wild Fire. There are three possible redirect targets mentioned by three different people. The last one appears to be the correct one, since all indications are that this rumour turned out to be named as the last option. Deathphoenix ʕ 05:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hyper Sonic

Speedied, restored, and prodded by User:Royboycrashfan, then deprodded by User:TheCoffee, this article appears to violate Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Delete unless properly sourced. Stifle (talk) 18:30, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Joystiq lists it as a third-party title announced at Nintendo's E3 conference.[1].
  • Delete until it leaves the realm of rumors and becomes widely accepted fact that this game exists. Beltz 22:57, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
    • This game was revealed by Nintendo, with video, at their Pre-E3 conference yesterday. Coffee 01:02, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. This isn't a rumor anymore, and has a source. Coffee 01:02, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
    • Are there sources other than that Joystick link? For example, gamespot, ign, etc? Beltz
      • Hmm.. I know the conference is available in streaming video on IGN and Gamespot. Though the game was known as "Hyper Sonic" at the Nintendo press conference, it seems that it's now known as Sonic Wild Fire [2], which has its own article. I say REDIRECT to Sonic Wild Fire.

  • Redirect to Super Sonic. The game title I don't know, but "Hyper Sonic" is a character too. Sort of. 86.136.82.105 20:00, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Sonic Wildfire if it is in fact an early title for the Sonic Wii game. ~ Hibana 16:16, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
  • I disagree. I think Hyper Sonic refers to Super Sonic#Hyper Sonic, in which case it should Redirect there. —Mets501talk 22:37, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Sonic Wild Fire. Hyper Sonic was the former name of the game. BackInBlack 12:19, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
