Power Sneakers

From Sonic Retro

Right then kids, find me a Sonic game that officially refers to these things as "Speed Shoes" before the weekend is over, or I will rename it to "Power Sneakers". -Black Squirrel (talk) 12:35, 5 May 2017 (CDT)

This one is a hundred times more annoying than the Insta-Shield, lol, so many names. I'm pretty sure 99% of "Speed Shoes" usage came from SA2's Hi(gh?)-Speed Shoes. I'm not sure it can be handled as gracefully like Twin-Spin Attack because of the sheer amount of different names... the W really only has two (Insta-Shield + a thousand similar translations of "W回転アタック"). What does Generations use, though? I don't have it easily available at the moment. Despatche (talk) 18:04, 5 May 2017 (CDT)
