Apparently, according to Ian Flynn and the higher-ups, Sonic Prime takes place after the old advance games in canon, WHICH DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE BY THE WAY.
-Orbot and Cubot didn't exist during that time frame yet in Sonic Prime they are there for some reason
- The master emerald isn't even referenced once
-Sonic isn't even aware that there's a fucking robot copy of him because he clearly was shocked by the existence of a alternative robot Sonic in one episode. Like huh?????? Bitch you have a whole ass metallic doppelganger out for your blood yet your shocked by existence of a robot version of you????
Unless Metal Sonic got thanos snapped out of existence, there's no way that Sonic didn't know that there's a robot version of him when Prime takes place a long time after Sonic CD and the advance games
Thanks higher ups at SEGA, this is why Sonic Prime should have stayed separate from canon because look at all the inconsistencies!
I'm choosing to believe that Sonic Prime takes place in a separate universe away from the main canon of the games, cause I literally cannot deal with the these things.
