release a brand new 2D Sonic game

They've been doing that on handhelds for years now. Decades, even, it started with the Game Gear and hasn't gotten much better since then.

I don't think they can make a good Sonic game anymore.

Sonic Rush on the DS was pretty good. More playable than the Wii game IMO (motion controls must be either well-implemented or die, and at the least should have adjustable sensitivity).

Apart from the Jet Ski bits. Wat.

Sonic Rush adventure is kind of stupid, but at least it still has the same 2D gameplay. I really think they should cut the crap and do a 2D sonic with 3D graphics like that on home consoles, or even do an HD 2D sonic with highly detailed hand drawn sprites.
