I say Sonic finally had a good year with Sonic 4 & Sonic Colors.
Sega should continue what they're doing with Sonic 4 (I think ep. 2 is planned for this summer,) but take a break from the 3D games.
Sonic Colors fixed a lot of what has been bad lately, but it isn't perfect obviously. It's a great place to give Sonic a break while a new dev team returns to the drawing board and takes their time on producing a really great 3D Sonic game (which may mean more 2D/3D combination like Sonic Colors.)
I feel the past few games have been too rushed, but seeing what they produced this past year proves Sonic can be great again. I wouldn't mind if they took a few years to work on the next game while holding the fans over with more Sonic 4 episodes. So long as he comes back with a truly great game to put him back on the map, it would be worth it.
