    Eggman breaking the traffic law is a SERIOUS crime and is worse than any other villain's crimes. Therefore, we have to arrest him at all costs.

    I've been to Joypolis in Odaiba. The train is small and runs in an oval shape. It appeared closed when I visited. The Sonic Carnival was fun. I almost had enough points to get a good prize! I wound up with a baby bottle filled with fruit-shaped erasers. I didn't dare try the treadmill attraction or the quiz show. Overall, the place is really cool and I look forward to going back to Japan again someday. Oh yeah, and if you took a picture with the workers, they make a "J" using their finger and thumb. Joypolis also had a really cool (but pricey) gift shop. What an awesome place.

    Last year I saw a full line of 10 Sonic & Mario Olympic Games arcade cabinets with a similar setup as Sonic Athletics. It was in a shopping mall in Rio, Brazil, and I didn't even know there was an arcade version of that game.

    Was wondering if the Sega Pico games would get a mention so I waited till the end of the video. There's Sonic's Gameworld, which is basically just Sonic-themed carnival games, and Tails and the Music Maker, a really simple music game for kids with Tails as the main character. The Pico was basically a Sega version of the Leapster.

    I played Waku Waku Sonic Patrol Car when I was child. By some miracle it was exported to an arcade in MALAYSIA, of all countries. This would have been pre-1996, and was probably my first encounter with the blue hedgehog. Never thought it would have had such a lasting impact. Nearly 30 years later and I have a TH-cam channel that covers a bunch of music from Sonic

    Sega Joypolis is a Sega fan's paradise. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone going to Japan. It was kind of trippy seeing it in this video, as I made a visit there recently. I can confirm that the Sonic Athletics and Sonic-themed carnival games are still there, I actually won 2 plushes from the Whack-a-mole they showed in this video.

    If you guys make another Obscure Sonic Games video, I recommend talking about the Japan exclusive CR Sonic arcade game. It ran on Dreamcast hardware and used the Sonic Adventure 2 engine but was a 2D side-scroller. I really think you guys should check it out.

  • @spencerbollettieri3550

    I remember the Sonic police game. I saw it on a cruise ship. Which I think was originated in Asia considering a lack of a 4th floor (an unlucky number) and the amount of Asian arcade games they had on board. I distinctly remember a Resident Evil arcade machine (naturally called Biohazard) and the Sonic one. I don't think I actually played the Sonic one because the controls might've been in Japanese.
    If I had to guess the ship, maybe it was the Carnival Legend or the Norwegian Jewel circa 2007/2008

    5 times! They made 5 games where Sonic, the fastest thing alive, just drives a car or kart.
    Sonic R is the lone game to say "Hey, what if this fast guy, y'know, just ran?"

    I wonder if Sega will look at these and revisit some of the ideas in various media, maybe in comic form? I find it interesting that Sonic was a cop at one point, as we now have a Sonic movie where he teams up with one.
