Eggman is a stupid name.
What was wrong with calling him Doctor Robotnik?
>>93637568
I always assumed either his name was Robotnik Eggman or it was an insult by sonic that stuck.
>>93637497
WOULD THE REAL EGGMAN PLEASE STAND UP?
>>93637556
A lot of people don't know this, but it's actually "goo goo g'joob."
>>93637568
>What was wrong with calling him Doctor Robotnik
Because then you can't do this.To me my Eggmen!
>>93637568
TOO EDGY, EGGS AREN'T EDGY!
>>93637594
I think, of all the songs you could argue have versatile lyrics, this would be one of them.

His body is arguably a more literal eggshape than his old design, eggs aren't round, their oval with a big end on one side.
>>93637647
Shut up, egg face.
>>93637568
Seriously, there was absolutely nothing wrong with the name Dr. Ivor Robotnik but nooooooooo we can't have nice things can we?
CRISIS OF INFINITE EGGMEN
>>93637778
WHEN EVERYONE'S AN EGGMAN...
>>93637750
>>93637568
The canon reason (at least in the comics IIRC) is that Sonic, and later everyone, started calling him that to mock him, but Eggman decided to embrace it and turn it into a name that inspires fear. Sort of a self-impsed challenge.
>>93637857
I really like that actually. You gotta try pretty damn hard to make people quake at the name "Eggman."
>>93637697
Woah slow down there EGGHEAD, I thought you were out here to steal the chaos emeralds not other people's jokes
>>93637919
You're one to talk, you blue armed freak.
>>93637956
What gets me is the bandages on his shoes. What's even the point?
>>93637568
Ivo Robotnik - real name.
Dr. Eggman - supervillain alias.
>>93637497
>>93637969
When the series was first announced, Sega kept billing it as an action/adventure series and the designs were supposed to reflect it. It's why each episode is required to have one mediocre action scene even though the series is clearly just a sitcom at this point.
>>93638023
That in no way explains why he has bandages on his shoes.
>>93638035
They're to hold his shoes on so they don't fly off because he runs so fast.
>>93637635
It could have been worse.
>>93638051
You know, all right. That's not a bad answer.
>>93638061
>Billy Bob Eggman
>>93638035
So they don't fly off when he runs.
>>93638061
I would accept this design for Dave the Intern but goddamn that would be an awful Young Eggman.
>>93638061
I get that they were making a few design changes, some drastic, to all the characters that would appear in the show and games, but this is just retarded.
Was this maybe supposed to be a henchman or something? I could maybe-kinda-sorta see that, but this as a concept for Eggman himself just screams lunacy.
>>93638100
>Dat ass tho
>>93638061
You'd think they would have realized from the get-go that Eggman is supposed to be fat. Like, why even entertain the idea of a thin Eggman at all?
SO LET THE HEARTACHES BEGIN
>>93638278
>Like, why even entertain the idea of a thin Eggman at all?
probably some nonsense about promoting a fit, healthy lifestyle.
>>93638134
They were developing two projects. One an action adventure "ultimate" style reboot (that's where the "Red Baron" Robotnik design comes from), the other an ironic comedy show (that's where this thin twig "Eggman" comes from).
Somewhere along the line, the two projects got scrambled together.. All those episodes with Eggman in his pjs trying to crash at Sonic's and playing with fluffy toys? That wasn't originally the part of Baron Eggman.
>>93637635
It's a cool design for the games, but doesn't really fit the cartoon.
>>93638341
I CAN'T HELP IT, I CAN'T WIN
>>93637584
I REPEAT, WILL THE REAL EGGMAN PLEASE STAND UP!

Their meme game is strong.
DID ANYONE SAY EGGMAN THREAD
EEEEEEEEEGGGUMANO
>>93637568
He's called Eggman because he's a fucking fatass, so fat that shaped into egg
>>93640047
I thought it was because he was bald.
All present and accounted for...
Did somebody say egg?
What a shit character.
I do not like them,
Sam-I-am.
I don't like
green eggs and ham.
>>93641258
Next JermaMania when?
>>93637635
He's an upside down egg.
>>93641219
I really wish this game got a sequel, just to iron out all the problems and expand the world a bit.
>>93641458
>iron out all the problems
What problems?
I played it, I liked it, only thing that really bugged me was the complete and total lack of characterization for Billy and friends, I wanted some actual character and personality.
>>93638278
Well, the game was meant to include time travel. What if Eggman became fat because Sonic fucked up his shit as a teenager, Ocarina of Time style.
>OOOOOH, when that hedgehog can round, and started playing that stupid song
>The windmill went CRAAAZZZYYYY
Meanwhile, at Launch Base Zone...

That and the physics of the game, seriously, FUCK that one rail in the first level of Circus Park. Died so many time because the dam thing wouldn't work properly.

>>93637568
This was one of the few times Americans got shit right when they mistranslated or otherwise adjusted weeb shit for our market. His Japanese name was always Eggman but here in America the instruction booklet called him Robotnik, as well as an early comic depicting his origin, so we knew him as Robotnik until they killed off the 'real' Robotnik in Archie for a few years and they added in lines to Sonic Adventure when that first came out acknowledging both names but ultimately shifting his name to Eggman.
>>93640296
Who is that guy?

What the fuck
>>93638061
Have they had a time traveling episode yet
Cause that would be the only reason I'd accept this
Cause for robuttnick that's too young to be him
>>93646648
But his name is Eggman, not Eggsman.
The part of Dr. Eggman shall now be played by Baron Vladimir Harkonnen.
>>93648978
No need to eggsplain.
>>93637568
Because his name was always Eggman in nipland.
>>93637556
You have made John happy.
>>93637568
Because America changes things for no reason. His name was always Eggman in Japan. That Robotnik shit can stay in the comics and cartoons.Fleetway gets a pass just for being awesome.
