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.

Film

  • Throw Down (2004) - Columns is briefly seen in the background. Film here.
  • Pulse (2001) - An unknown reference in an arcade. Film here.

Television

  • Evangelion - A "SECA"-branded camera appears in at least one shot.

  • 2 Guys, A Girl, And A Pizza Place - A Dreamcast in character's apartment[2]
  • Ben-To - Episodes 3 and 9 should contain additional references[3]
  • MTV Cribs - A football or basketball player has a Dreamcast because Sega Sports gave him one (possibly because he was featured in the game)
  • Bodacious Space Pirates - Unknown reference[4]
  • Gantz - Kaze does one of Virtua Fighter's Akira’s moves to kill a demon. Additionally, Takeshi gets killed by an abusive boyfriend, only to play Virtua Fighter 4.[3]

  • The Tomorrow People - Unknown[6]
