I just watched another episode of Futurama yesterday with another Sega reference. I forget the name of the episode, but some aliens stole fry's nose, and the Professor's response is something along the lines of "Fry! What in the name of Sega Genesis happened to you?!"
Found this randomly on another forums, unrelated to Sonic. Is it fanart or was it really a strip for Calvin & Hobbes?
It's real. I remember seeing it in some book 10 years ago or so. Also, the picture is unrelated to Sonic. The actual strip is from 1989.
In the first Cherub book The Recruit, the protaganist destroys a Dreamcast so that it doesn't get stolen.

I can't believe I forgot about this when I originally posted. I used to love these guys back when I was like 14, but when I lost interest when I expanded my music and realised that I pretty much hate the band these days as I realized it's just a guy shouting about politics and aliens with electronic music in the background. :U
Didn't see this mentioned but there was one in that really shit movie made years ago called See Spot Run about that super agent bulldog and the mailman that befriends him. Anyway, the dude has a Dreamcast. The end.
Upbeat Music Video with tons of video game references. Surprisingly, Sonic seems to be a big part of it. http://youtu.be/7-tNUur2YoU Beginning of the video, an 8-bit version of the "SEGA" chant, however, it says "GOLDFISH" instead. 2:44, a goldfish-like original fan character(heh) rolls through loop-de-loops and springs and a bunch of other shit. He kills a guy.
