Some guy claims to have found Sonic 1 TTS footage in a greek commercial https://gbatemp.net/threads/new-tts-beta-footage.662601/I have no idea what he's referring to because the slowed down part of the video is after the tv showing the special stage is out of view
Ok.
>>11351806
Prerelease copy of Sonic 1 found in Albanian mental hospital
It looks likes Sonc 2 for Mastersystem it have the same clouds
>>11351815It's just a gbatemp post, you don't need an account to look at itBut here, I converted it to webm
>>11351806That's 100% a master system version, the beta never looked that visually empty and they certainly wouldn't be showing it off if it did.
If it were a Japanisht toystore I'd believe it, since apparently it wasn't uncommon for toy stores to receive prototypes and put them in kiosks. But I doubt that Sega would've sent out a prototype, much less a barenones tradeshow prototype, to a Grecian toystore.
>>11351937>>11351998So its just a lie
>>11352012Anything's possible, but I would be shocked if it were indeed that prototype (I really can't make out much from the video)
>>11351835oh wow one second of blurry footage where you can make out a sonic logo on the display case
>>11351806What, is this different than picrel? The way es world sonic proto that is now available
>>11351835Huh?
>>11352621It's part of some old game store commercial, I'm not sure what part the guy on gbatemp thinks is the sonic prototype, you can see the special stage but its off screen in the part that clip repeats in slow motion so who knows
>>11351823That's clearly Alex Kidd in Miracle World
>>11353320Wrecked.
>>11353320He's on about the other monitor in the first half of the video. It's the Sonic 1 bonus stage with the fish background....Why anyone would care about this tiny, blurry little glimpse is beyond me, though.
>>11351820to be fair they found prerelease footage in Wayne's World, so weirder things have happened.
>>11351806As far as I'm aware there has never been any demo handouts of the Sonic alpha cartridge so you only got to see this in Japan at a handful of trade shows.
>>11351835>>11352045What an insane obsessionAs usual for sonicfags
>>11351835weird asf it ask for registration and won't show up in the site's search
>>11351806Looking into it more, presumably the same person also uploaded the commercial and the snippet onto YouTube (https://youtu.be/Ts2z_3-dHII) and that they're misidentifying the Alex Kidd level as the TTS demo. The full commercial also shows a Game Gear which didn't reach retail in Eastern Europe until closer to the mid 90s. Seems like it's a little kid who's woken to the long dead Sonic 1 beta gold rush.
I gotta big dick
I think /vr/ hates Sonic more than /v/.
>>11356658i feel like /v/ mostly jerks off to sonic females>verification not required
>>11355045I mean, general video game beta/prototype obsession pretty much started with the Sonic 2 Simon Wai prototype
