References to Sega/Film and television
From Sega Retro
Contents
To do
- References to Sonic in sports that aren't sponsorships (including wrestling)
- Commercials and Sponsorships
- Ensure all files are hosted at their appropriate websites; Sega/Sonic/CDN.
- Ensure all Reference article entries that feature both a Sonic and a non-Sonic reference have all refs listed on both their Sega and Sonic Retro entries.
- Reformat multiple-ref entries as nested ones like the Sonic Retro page (if possible.)
- So the reason Wreck-It Ralph's section doesn't mention the Hang-On inspired full-body taikan stuff is because that's such a popular shape for that type of hardware that it needs mentioning elsewhere. Which brings me to: This article needs brief summaries on "generic references" to very popular Sega things... i.e. the Hang-On style of sit-down motorcycle cabinet was so popular and widespread that pretty much anytime you see a fictional arcade with "sit-down motorcycle games", they're almost always a Hang-On "reference" (at least through inspiration.) The Music references article will need the same thing. So short of listing every piece of media featuring Hang-On-like sit-down motorcycle cabs, we can keep it to a brief section with a few examples and maybe an inline image.
- For both this article and its Sonic Retro equivalent, make a brief section on Sonic's appearances in general video game history books (because we're not including them otherwise.)
- Mark which references are product placements.
