Sonic Is Playable In Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz HD
Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz HD arrives in just two weeks, and Sega confirmed a little surprise today to spike pre-release interest: Sonic the Hedgehog is an unlockable character in the game. This wasn’t the case in the original Banana Blitz, which came out on the Nintendo Wii and used motion controls.
