Now y'all have got me combing through all the soundtracks of Sonic games I've never played. Let's see if that Riders series has anything worth listening to--

The main battle theme is only bad by virtue of being used for nearly every drat fight in the game.

Also, you rarely get to hear more than the beginning of the song, which gets really old really fast.

More sonic games need their own version of the Rank E theme.

Thirding it. The first episode seemed to have potential until that brat showed up and was declared the star.

I remember someone telling me that I'd love the episodes where they did the Sonic Adventure plotlines. But then that person told me that an annoying human child replaced all the important character lines, like Amy convincing Shadow to actually help people, so I never gave it a shot. Good to know I didn't miss anything.

So Sonic 1 is on "South Island" and Sonic CD is on "Little Planet" while Sonic 3 travels to "Angel Island"

Where is Sonic 2 situated in the Sonic lore?

I think of all the things Sonic has done people debate, him interacting with humans is the actual objective worst.

But not him interacting with real worldish architecture, just to be clear. I never played any of the Dreamcast games (I hate basically all early 3d console stuff) and I was blown away when I got to Speed Highway in generations. It just works so well.

The gems of my collection. The Sonic gems collection, if you will.



Sonic 3 cover slip signed by Jun Senoue. In this game he did the gumball machine bonus stage music. You know how the music for the bonus stage goes way longer than you could actually stay in it? He was brought onto the project very late to fill in this small gap in the music.

Sonic 1 is signed by Shinya Arino, the Game Center CX Kachou, from when he did the San Francisco trip. We also exchanged business cards! :3:




Sonic Crackers reproduction cartridge. I couldn't settle on the Genesis cover or Mega Drive cover so I printed both. If you try to play the game on a real system it will crash on the title screen after a second due to an audio programming issue. You must start the game quickly, making level select or 2-player difficult.
I showed Jun Senoue Sonic Crackers on a PSP and he flipped out that the game was still in existence anywhere. He was very tight-lipped about my questions regarding it and Knuckles Chaotix. He demanded we take a picture together and I will make sure no one ever sees it because I am making the dumbest face. He also gave me a guitar pick with lives in the Sonic 3 box.



Thanks for reading!

That Sonic Crackers art is pretty rad. Where's it from?
Someone should make a Sonic Stadium (Sega's name for it) logo too, that'd be neat.

The art is originally from an internal SEGA magazine called Harmony. It could later also be found in Sonic Jam and a Sonic screensaver. In Japan you could buy this screensaver at retail (lol) and in the west it came with the Sonic and Knuckles PC collection.

I think people have said before that the reason for this is probably that a smaller dev team, like the one working on Mania, might not get the NX so far in advance, while Sonic Team probably does. So it'll probably come out for the NX, but maybe not at launch.
