Revision as of 10:24, 21 January 2023
Contents
To do
- Rewrite main References page.
- Get image tabbing working for multiple-image entries.
- Split Print into separate page.
- Search this blog.
- Search lyric websites.
- Search sample websites.
- Mark all product placements.
- Ensure all entries which feature both a Sonic and Sega reference have all references listed on both their respective entries.
- Ensure all entries which feature multiple references include an image of each reference.
- Add Sonic products which reference Sega products (with obvious caveats; think the Dreamcast texture in that Sonic Adventure boss fight.)
- Add non-review television/notable web shows which cover video games, but probably only with a single entry which contains a list of every Sega game which has appeared on the show. Think a single entry for GameCenter CX with a list of covered Sega games. Just one image too, I'd imagine.
To add
Film
- PTU (Hong Kong, 2003) - There's a scene in an arcade featuring many Sega cabinets and games including Virtua Striker 3 and Virtua Tennis.
- Throw Down (Hong Kong, 2004) - There's a scene in an arcade featuring many Sega cabinets. Columns is briefly seen in the background and two characters play Virtua Fighter 4 against each other.
- Pulse - second reference (arcade shot)
Television
- Evangelion - A "SECA"-branded camera appears in at least one shot. As the name also appears on the faux Saturn and Asuka's television, I'd imagine it might appear on other consumer technology in the series. Someone recently had a good summary about the show being sponsored by Sega, etc.
- Wolfoo and Friends (YouTube Channel) - This episode[1] is a giant Sonic reference, and apparently contains copied/traced scenes from episode 3 of Sonic Mania Adventures.
- YuGiOh - Enemy Controller
- London's Burning - , the firefighters were occasionally seen browsing the internet on a Dreamcast during their free time.[2]
- CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - Stokes was shown playing a Football game with a Dreamcast controller early in the first season."[2]?)
- The Drew Carey Show - Dreamcast in Season 6 (previous seasons feature a Sega Saturn).[2], pics+info here[1], history here[1]
- 1999 MTV Video Music Awards - Sega was a sponsor. During the program, Ulala (of Space Channel 5 fame) announced the nominees for the Viewers' Choice category.[2]
- Casualty - a boy with a Game Gear is electrocuted (not by the Game Gear). The Game Gear is later smashed by the child's irate mother. It was probably episode 7x19, which aired 23 January 1993.
- Solar Opposites - Dreamcast mention in first episode. Also, something playing something similar to a Saturn.
- Norm - Season 2, One episode has Norm's boss finding out that he bought a handheld game with money from the office-- the handheld game is shown and it is a VMU.
- Genshiken - some characters are playing Puyo Puyo Fever on a PS2. They even talk about it, Its kinda important for the plot of that episode.
- Good Morning America - Dreamcast[1]
- 2 Guys, A Girl, And A Pizza Place - Dreamcast in character's apartment[3]
- Ben-To - apparently has four total episodes dedicated to VF2/The Saturn (eps. 3, 4, 8, and 9)[4]
- MTV Cribs - another episode where some football or basketball player had a Dreamcast because Sega Sports gave him one. He was apparently a featured player in one of those games (I don't remember exactly). Or maybe I just made that up and it was the Redman one that I saw lol.
- Bodacious Space Pirates - Unknown reference[1]
- Gantz - Kaze does one of Akira’s moves to kill a demon. Additionally, Takeshi gets killed by an abusive boyfriend, only to play VF4.[4]
- Air Master - Ep 1, 18 references[4]
- World God Only Knows - episode 12. SAGA SATURN and Cream cast. Later on in the episode there's a Mega Five. It's hard to think of a console not mentioned/spoofed in this episode.
- Gintama - there have been a couple of times where it references SEGA from what I've watched. First one is this from an arc where the cast tries to win a Bentendo OwEe: Second reference was this, in which Gintoki and Zura are turned into old men: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9ukgb_gintama-parodies-megadrive-owners_fun Which becomes a running joke with old Gintoki saying "In the end, you played the Mega Drive too" throughout the episode.[5]
- Can Can Bunny - Ep 4some reference
- "Malaki animation" - Mega Drive reference
- "popular spanish sitcom" - Dreamcast, I found this vid of an episode ive never seen where the same dude is playing videos games with a millenium 2000 pink DC controller. If you fast fotward to 9:04[1]
Music
- Seagulls - Great Pine (released on a faux MD cartridge)[6]
- Seagulls - Thrown Voice (released on a faux MD cartridge)[6]
- nano - █▓▒▒F U N S T A T I O N▒▒▓█
- VAPERROR - Sega Dreamland (Dreamcast startup sound, right? <- never owned a DC)
Video games
- Probably more All Your Base references out there.
- This. And clean up the Mario-Hedgehog refs in regards to dates/actual refs. The first two weren't by default but had Western localizations make the connection. Also when did that Mario cartoon debut, he looks Sonic colors af there.
- Do something with the Bleemcast! gravestone image.
- Ball Bearing
"Sonic clones"
- Axel's Magic Hammer (AMI/ST) - Alex Kidd in Miracle World[7]
- I literally just read about some ESWAT clone but I can't remember it now. I think it was on PC? From a super low-budget crap developer, maybe bootleg/unlicensed if for consoles... it had super edgy cutscenes and a name like ESWAT, but with SWAT changed to something. Or with the E changed to something, like C-SWAT or something? And I remember a cutscene with a gun covered in blood I think? My memory sucks.
"Clones" of Sonic games
- Sonic Dragon
- Kid Chaos (AMI)
- Bubsy series
- Awesome Possum
- Socket
- Zool 2 (investigate)
- James Pond 3
- Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure
- Spark the Electric Jester
- Freedom Planet 1 & 2
- Bignose Freaks Out (kinda?)
To investigate
- Silver Spoon S02E09 2013-03-13 The episode "The Last Milk" contains a Puyo Puyo-series reference. <- I could not find this despite skimming through it twice. Therefore moving it to here until now.
- See Spot Run <- I was unable to find a Dreamcast. Taken off for now.
- I'm not seeing a Dreamcast in Ah My Godness or Cheaters; neither can I find a good citation for them. I'm thinking of removing them, unless someone can prove me wrong!
- More unmarked refs[1]
- What's the reference here?[8]
- Someone mentioned that one of the many people seen playing a Game Gear in the movie Airheads is playing "Sonic the Hedgehog", but I wasn't able to find it.
- Orange is the New Black - reference in "latest season of the show"[5]
- Bob's Burgers - Season 5 Episode 9 "Speakeasy Rider" reference
- Dream Team - members of the Harchester United F.C. were often seen playing the Dreamcast.[2] <- I went through several seasons of this show and found nothing
- Project Pat freestyle[9]
- Justice (music video)[10]
- Music references obfuscated by old forum code.[11][10]
