SEGA isn't stopping with the upcoming Sonic Unleashed or Bioware's Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood, as the latest issue of Nintendo Power reveals that a yet another Sonic installment is in the works, specifically for the Wii. The game was not part of any E3 lineup, so details on Sonic and the Black Knight are as good as nonexistent. The front cover of the magazine shows Sonic carrying a big sword. Hopefully we'll get to more info at the Leipzig Games Convention or Tokyo Game Show later this year.
