Sega may have you thinking Sonic 4 is on the way, but really, it’s already here. It was released in 1996, for the Super Nintendo.
This is a game called “Sonic 4″, a hack which took the existing Speedy Gonzales: Los Gatos Bandidos (by Sunsoft) and added some extras to it. Like Sonic, Sonic’s rings, and little Marios in cages, which Sonic has to rescue.
Sounds bonkers, I know, but the proof’s in the video.

P.S Why have sonic save Mario if the game is being made for SNES? Isnt that admitting that sonic is better?

What was with the little animation at the end of the scene, so crudely done.
