On the Internet, anything directly or indirectly related to Sonic ends up being NSFW. The character is often the target of furry fans and since, Sega accepted this principle. However, the New controller pro Switch stamp sonic didn’t ask for anything.
Sonic: too sexy a controller?
it is already a long time ago for the war of mascots between sonic and mario, Nintendo versus Sega. This makes 21 years since Sega announced that it would no longer produce consoles living room and devote himself to game development. However, Sega is far from a dead company of video games today and still owns a large number of licenses such as Total War, Company of heroes, Humankind or Soccer Manager. more discreet, the company nevertheless remains actively listening to its fans and their strange delusions, especially with regard to Sonic, this was confirmed recently by the two films dedicated to the blue hedgehog which are a great success. You can find early reviews for the second movie hitting theaters here.
However, you read it above, anything remotely related to Sonic on the Internet ends up being “cursed“, unhealthy. Le Joueur du Grenier had even dedicated an episode to a fan-made Sonic game, where furry fans and big feet fans meet. Once again Hedgehog fans struck a chord when the brand Hori revealed the new Nintendo Switch pro controller with the image of Sonic. A controller whose design is somewhat intriguing for some, since the drawing of Sonic is placed strangely, too much for it to be a coincidence. Fans feel the joystick sits too close to the Sega hero’s crotch, where button B is placed on the buttocks of the character. Another would be placed at Sonic’s armpit, but even there is too much. the easiest way is to show you the design and judge for yourself:
Sonic controller: what fans think
If many agree that the new Pro Sonic controller is unhealthymost do not even see where the harm is, and the controller even looks pretty nice. The vast majority of reviews rate the controller as enjoyable, although it could have looked better without the Sonic logo and branding to the left. However, part of Twitter took to the subject to prove once again that they were able to see Not Safe For Work content (NSFW, often used for sexual content, so not to watch at work) everywhere.
Thus, opinions differ between “There is absolutely nothing wrong with this controller.” and “Hope you enjoy playing with Sonic’s Joystick“, implied his gender. Others are amused that it will now be interesting to “Pound the B button” since it is now placed in a significant place. Here is a small anthology of the comments concerning the controller and the debate concerning it:
I dunno where everyone is getting the idea that the right stick is placed inappropriately. It’s nowhere near his private area. Y’all are just down bad.

I don’t know where the idea that the right joystick is misplaced comes from, it’s far from its intimate space, you’re not well.
