Who was the first guy who thought it was a good idea to put "R" in the title of anything? What, you couldn't fit "Race" on the box (if that is what it stands for)? And like Sonic R is so indimidating anyway... you can beat it in an hour.

Post by: Chupperson Weird on January 04, 2008, 06:36:21 PM: Actually Sonic R didn't have anything to do with the change in name to Mario Kart 64. R is just a suffix Japanese guys like to put on racing games and it was the prototype title for MK64.

Sonic R for the Dreamcast

Problem with that statement, it was on the SATURN.
