'Sonic the Hedgehog' in real life is better than virtual reality

Hedgehogs aren’t too keen on gaming, but like humans, no one can resist those addicting gold coins.

The San Diego Zoo introduced Mashable to some animals, including Elvis the hedgehog. We wanted to see if all hedgehogs were as speedy as Sonic so we created an extremely high-budget replica of the classic SEGA game.

Elvis preferred to go off the beaten path.

We see a trend in virtual reality for hedgehogs coming to E3 next year.
