Dr. Eggman vs. Dr. Robotnik

[Megamannt125]

Ever notice that the current Eggman and the one from the old Sonic games have different personalities? That's because SEGA fired the old one for using innapropriate words, watch the old Eggman take out his anger on the newer one.

I prefer Robotnik. It just sounds so much cooler and more original.

His name was always Eggman in Japan but I agree about his name being better as Robotnik.

No it's because the term "Egghead" can be used to describe a smart person and in the original games his body was shaped like an egg....

In April 1990, Sega petitioned its research and development department, AM8, to create a character who would replace Alex Kidd as the company's mascot, as well as compete against Nintendo's flagship character, Mario. A caricature of Theodore Roosevelt was among the proposed designs, and combined with the idea of an egg-shaped character, it eventually became the basis of the visual design for Dr. Robotnik/Eggman.[5] In creating the "bad guy" for the Sonic series, the development team wanted a character who was "the opposite of Sonic;" a character who represented "machinery" and "development" to play on the then-growing debate between developers and environmentalists.[6] The character was also designed to be easy for kids to draw.[6]
