Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - Commercials collection

[@SmashTheOni]

SEGA's "Welcome to the Next Level" campaign is some of the most unhinged advertising in the whole gaming industry, and I live for it.

[@StretchyAnimations]

Yup

[@untipoquenadieconoce]

I wouldn't be surprised if the dude who came up with the whole campaign ended up in a mental asylum

[@Bricky2021]

Thanks for the help. Upload that to SEGA's Fandom

Im Agree This

classic tails is always cutest

[@zacharyk.2766]

fun fact: This was the first game in the franchise to get released in Japan before North America.

[@NYAN_GAB-13]

SONIC 1, THE MASTER SYSTEM VERSION AND SONIC 2 THE MASTER SYSTEM VERSION WAS RELEASED IN NORTH AMERICA FIRST THAN SONIC 2?

[@Zakko64]

0:23 “Welcome to Sonic Land!”

[@omegaflowey9932]

I think that's an unused sonic 2 title screen animation.

[@Pig3on471]

It is indeed an earlier title screen for Sonic 2 though we haven't found any prototype featuring the animation they do before popping up of the logo. On an unrelated note, i think it's pretty cool that they kept the "His name is Sonic" on the Icon they pop out of as a reference to Sonic 1 concept art

[@tobytoad123]

3:47 This commercial might've actually aired in Australia and New Zealand, based on a Twitter post from Sonic the Wereblog about the commercial and one reply to the same post from a guy who remembers the commercial airing in New Zealand.

[@sebastianhernandezvazquez4922]

9:48 sonic in that brazilian commercial is voiced by tata guarneri who later voiced eggman in the live action movies, fun fact tata also voiced sonic in some cartoons almost simultaneously with manolo rey

And here is the start of Tails the Fox, my fav character I love thia Compilation of commercials of different Sonic games

[@NYAN_GAB-13]

Tails' full name is Miles "Tails" Prower not Tails the fox

[@thesmilingman7576]

The game was finished the same day it was released so I think that explains why most commercials use beta builds

[@thesmilingman7576]

3:54 sounds like the voice sctor from the cartoons (also did nobody tell the marketing team they updated Tails design because that's his beta design)

[@theluisman250]

it looks like the final version's palette to me

[@omegaflowey9932]

10:37 Did you know: On the back or side of tails' head, there used be this little orange hair fluff thing there. But in his newer designs, they got rid of it.

[@spiderzilla7o7]

I miss when ads were this funny and effortful

[@Haru0427_SONICFAN]

1:16 It was reused in Sonic Mania.

Brazil Sonic be like: HELLO, I'M MICKEY MOUSE

[@jacksonjunior9589]

Curiosities The guy who voiced Sonic in this commercial never voiced Mickey, but he already voiced Goofy , and he already voiced Robotnik from Sonic's live action movie , and he was considered by many to be sonic's second brazilian voice actor

[@YoStarzz]

Naw what the level of animation in the Japanese classic sonic commercials could’ve been a show or anime 😭

ikr, and they didn't have a japanese sonic show till 2003

[@nuclearkitten6421]

No one’s talking about how in Portugal they are playing 16-bit sonic 2 on a game gear

[@vini64]

Gotta love some false advertisement

[@justanjustan9624]

I HATED it when they would do that. So misleading! Yet so nostalgic LOL. I remember seeing the Sonic 3 Tiger Hand Held advertised in a paper catalogue back in the day and the screen showed a black & white version of what I THINK was Marble Garden Zone. I found it again on Google a few years ago. False advertisement indeed. XD

[@JubileuBr]

Clickbait

[@milcmilk]

That first ad is actually very interesting…

[@madnessandcraziness452]

That was Mark Elliott who's mostly known for being the narrator for many Disney movie trailers and ads in the 90s.

[@samten6080]

WELCOME TO SONIC LAND!!!!!!

[@moottoriturpa7257]

Awesome commercial, but Sega tried so hard to be better than SNES but still failed miserably. Sega might have blast processing, but it lost so bad to Nintendo with colors, gameplay, controls, sound quality, amount of actual good games etc. Gunstar heroes, Castlevania bloodlines and Sonic 2 and 3 were the only good games on Sega what comes to sound, controls and gameplay.

[@keealex4027]

0:01 this feels like an AI making an sonic commercial

[@TobytheHedgehog]

Heres something to note about frances tiger Sonic 2 ad: They use pilot footage of AOSTH (as seen where sonic was going though the loop)
