According to SEGA, the launch of Sonic Superstars was more disappointing than expected

Launched last October, the new Sonic game has not fully convinced its publisher. During the announcement of its financial results, SEGA stated that Sonic Superstars had achieved "a slightly weaker start than we had anticipated".

Despite this, the Japanese firm expects sales to be better in November and December. After all, this is the period when the franchise sells best.
