Nice find G.Silver/ZeroChan! ^_^
Even the 'professional' gaming news sites have yet to report this story.
Naka did mention in
this interview that Sonic CD, Chaotix, Sonic R, and Sonic Fighters were games that Sonic Team had yet to re-release and even said that he had “considered maybe putting [Sonic CD] out on something like the PS2 perhapsâ€￾.
After releasing
Virtua Fighter 2 for PS2 Sega was
reportedly interested in exhuming other Model 2 games for the system.
Sonic Mega Collection Plus only contained 6 of the Game Gear games, so the missing titles, which mainly comprised of the hand-held’s better games (such as
Sonic & Tails 2 and
Tails Adventures), could be used to pad-out a new collection.
Although, virtually every post-DC era Sonic Team game has been disappointing and it is worth noticing that
Sonic’s Game World,
Tails and the Music Maker, and the Game.com Sonic games are all rare titles (although I wouldn't mind the chance to the play the Pico games).
