Sonic Team chief wishes all classics could run on modern hardware, but cost blocks it

Sonic Team head Takashi Iizuka said he'd love to have every Sonic game ever released playable on current hardware, but porting and remastering costs would be roughly the same as making a new title, so Sega is prioritizing new experiences. Sega has pursued remasters like Sonic Generations, and there’s potential for more DLC for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds depending on sales and fan demand.
