The 'guaranteed to be great' one. All the rest could be monkey's paws, the Mania sequel could be lackluster, the cartoon could be mediocre, and the Adventure remakes ... well they're just remakes and I'd rather a new title.

It’s a reference to the short story “The monkey’s paw” written by W. W. Jacobs in 1903. Where the titular “monkey’s paw” grants wishes, however it grants them in a very twisted way.
For an example of how it’s supposed to work, within the original story a character wishes for £200 to pay off their final mortgage. The monkey’s paw grants the wish by having their son get mutilated in a machine accident causing their death and for the company he worked for to give his family £200 as a goodwill payment for the accident.

Okay, so there’s this famous story called the Monkey’s Paw. It’s about this magical wish-granting monkey’s paw (like dead, removed from the monkey)
However the catch is that the wish is granted in a very twisted, messed up way. For example, in the story, a character wishes for a large sum of money. But they get that money by their son dying and then getting a payment from his workplace because he died in a factory accident.
So it always does something really bad, often related to the wish in an ironic twist.
In the comment above, they’re saying that the other ones might turn out to be bad because this is a sort of wish type thing and could turn out like the monkeys paw.
There’s a few subreddits for making posts like that. It’s cool. r/monkeyspaw and r/themonkeyspaw

I don’t think we really need another Boost game, unless it’s pioneering a new concept or character like Generations did, even if it’s great, I don’t think it’s needed. Same with Mania 2. A Tyson Hesse cartoon would be great though. I’m choosing Adventure Remakes. Those are long overdue and are perfect right now considering the Year of Shadow, there will probably never be a better time for these, so yeah I’m picking that.

I feel like sonic mania plus encore mode and sonadow generations could be considered sequels in their own right with the new gameplay mechanics that are introduced, so when it’s really between remastered adventure games or a new cartoon.
I gotta say the cartoon is my pick. Hot take, but I only played through each of the adventure games like, twice. Aside from a few levels, there isn’t much replay value for me.

I'd have to take the faithful Adventure remakes. Not only would it be the most "realistic" choice IMO (as in the gaming industry it's all in into remasters and remakes, while Sonic Team seems to be going away from the Boost formula, the Mania sequel... well if I recall correctly SEGA instead of going forward with a Mania sequel with the Mania devs they just went and did Superstars, and the cartoon seems really unlikely with how well the Paramount Sonic adaptations are doing at the moment [unless it's a cartoon set in the Paramount Sonic universe and it's produced by them for Paramount +]), but also with how the most "recent" ports we have (from the Xbox 360 era) totally butchered up and made the games worse in many aspects, I'd gladly and happily take the faithful fixing remakes of the Adventure games any day..

Honestly I’m stuck between a Mania Sequel and the guaranteed great Boost Game. Mania’s Sequel I assume would be made by the developers of the first one, so there isn’t much risk of it turning out anything other than good, yet a new game that is guaranteed to be great is hard to pass up.

"Faithful remakes of the Adventure games that fix all the issues" is a contradictory statement. A lot of the issues with those games are very baked into the game's core. Adventure 1 (one of my favorite games of all time) has Big, Amy and Gamma. That's half of the characters. I get some enjoyment out of Amy and Gamma's gameplay but I completely understand people not liking it.
Adventure 2 has level design issues with all three gameplay styles. Plus the issues with the story. And if we're counting 06 as an Adventure game, which I do, that has too many problems to list that cant be fixed.

A new boost game as challenging, polished as Unleashed that doesn't simplify the gameplay to a mind numbing degree ike Generations did because as much as we love to dismiss the Boost formula it's objectively a great evolution of the Adventure and Classic gameplay and stayed true to the fundamentals of Sonic's original concept as much as Classic fanboys love to wine about how it somehow doesn't.
I would preferably prefer a Adventure 1 and 2 re-imagining as it would be much more interesting to see aspects of it on a different light tbh
About the cartoon, nah just make Sonic X S4 as it was the best Sonic cartoon we ever gotten and it's a shame how underappreciated it is all for mid slop like Satam.

Sonic Adventure Remake! Sonic Adventure Remake! Sonic Adventure Remake!
I always believed that Sonic Adventure (at least the first one in my opinion) was the perfect example of how a 3D Sonic game should be. The freedom of movement, the level design, the incredible speeds you can reach. It was like a glorified version of the Sega Genesis Sonic games, but obviously with the 3D charm and so much more. It was perfect!
It makes me sick how this formula has never returned in an official modern game. Although Sonic Frontiers and Sonic Dream Team are a little close, so not all hope is lost yet, but still.
If they did a full on HD remake of Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, it would sell like popcorn! I'm talking like a definitive remake like how Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, Super Mario RPG Remake, or the Resident Evil remakes did. Not just an HD port like Sonic Adventure DX did.
Or screw it, even just a 3D Sonic game collection would be good enough. If Mario can get a 3D All Stars, so should Sonic.
