The other day I was
trying out how my link worked for a 1992 TV ad of the handheld LCD Sonic game,
(I posted about it here), and after watching the video, YouTube recommended several more videos, and I
decided to check one out. The Gaming
Historian did a four-part series on Sonic
the Hedgehog—from his SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive days to his SEGA Dreamcast
days and a bit beyond. In my opinion,
this is an entertaining and well-organized presentation on Sonic’s history,
mentioning the names in SEGA and Sonic Team who brought Sonic into the video
game world and into many gamers’ hearts (like mine!). I liked how he talks about how Tails was
created and the introduction to Knuckles the Echidna. There were even a couple of Sonic video games
I’ve never heard of until watching the second half of the series.
Here is Part 1, about 10 minutes long. If interested, you can watch the other three
parts of the series too (they are between seven to nine minutes each). Also, check out more of the videos from The Gaming Historian YouTube
channel. He may have some nice history lessons on your favorite childhood video games!
