What if Sonic's identity includes these blue arms he was always meant to have, Chris? They were only tan due to the Master System's limitations, and now he's free to identify however he likes. Hypocritical shitlords, I tell you.

Not sure about that. It wouldn't have taken much to make the whole sprite the same colour and he has tanarms in the Mega Drive versions.

So it's alright for Chris to chop and change things with his own character but Sega can't do the same? Love the double standard Chris.
Nah, Chris views himself as being in charge of both characters.
Well, I'm not Sega, but I'll try.
1. Because the arms were only tan because of graphics limitations.
2. Because it's not consistent for him to have bare arms but furry legs.
3. It's also not consistent with the other characters' colour schemes.
4. Because Sonic Boom is a different continuity from the other games and this acts as a handy way to differentiate them.
5. Hedgehogs probably have fur on their arms in real life. I think. EDIT: They do.
6. Sonic is nothing like as popular as he was in the 90s, so actually modernisation does count as a valid reason.
7. The games are aimed at kids. Nostalgia is not a big enough marketing pull.
8. Sega is not beholden to Chris. It is a multinational corporation. He does not even have a job.
9. There was some tranny guy who maced a dude over the blue arms, which went viral and got the game a load of free publicity.
10. Changing the arm colour will not affect sales, as even the most vociferous protester will buy the game, watch the cartoon and shell out a shitload of money on merchandise. Won't they, Chris?

I've only saw a hedgehog in the wild once, it was walking through my friend's back garden. It had like little legs and paws but I'm not sure if it had any fur on it's legs or belly. Paranoid little creature, balled right up when I went over to it for a look.
