Sonic may of lost it, but his ties with Nintendo look to me as if Sonic may be saved.

Well its gone the drain in my personal opinion.

Whether or not people will still buy more game Sonic games after this is debatable.

Thats all that matters really. That's why Mario and Co are so very very important to Nintendo. Just like Sonic to Sega really..

This is indeed true. However, the total profit made from the PS (not just by Sony, but in the whole industry) was about 100 times bigger than that made by the N64.

Looking at Ninty and Sony themselves, Ninty did indeed get far more money. But remember, 2 years ago they made $1billion from pokemon alone, and a loss from everything else put together. It just shows how the one brand can lift the company.
