仙台のホテルのすぐそばに、ESPのショップがあったので、ちょいとご挨拶をば。ちょうど、25周年モデルのソニックの中古の個体がありましたよ〜！探していた方は連絡してみては？ pic.twitter.com/AuEKQA8gzx

I never knew there are ice cubes that glow. That's super cool!
Cheers!

(I'm happy because they used a BGM from Sonic World Adventure.)

For some reason, the president of Brazil used the soundtrack from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) for his promotional video. Yep, our SoA noticed it immediately and reacted (positively, I guess).

Naka-san noticed it too, and commented as follows by tweeting a game news article titled 'President of the 'country of SEGA fans' Brazil uses music from 'Sonic the Hedgehog', appealing the country with dramatic BGM for final boss battle:

ブラジルでのメガドラとソニックの人気は本当に嬉しいですよね。
「セガ大国」ブラジルの大統領、PR動画で『ソニック・ザ・ヘッジホッグ』の楽曲を利用。壮大なラスボス戦のBGMで同国をアピール https://t.co/vWWthH6biB @denfaminicogameより

"It' makes me happy that Mega Drive and Sonic are very popular in Brazil." - Naka-san.

Ohtani-san, the one who made the music, was curious too!

The final battle begins?🤔 https://t.co/cWGxuF4qhn
