So Al Nilsen recently posted some screenshots on his twitter of holographic Sonic 2 cartridge labels that Sega contemplated using. Apparently they cost too much to produce... Man, they would have been awesome!

[LordOfSquad]

I'm at work right now (shh) and I'm too lazy to research but is that not the label they used on the Nick prototype?

LUNCHTIME EDIT: Sure looks like it to me.

Oh damn that's awesome. I'd love to have one of those to paste over my Sonic 2.

Sure is!



Well at least they got used in some capacity. =P

I think I edited that into my post at the exact same time you posted, haha

I asked Al about the hologram back in 2009, but I shot him an email about it again, I'll let you guys know if he tells me anything interesting about it.

edit: btw, I can't believe it's been almost 8 years

I want one ! looks like he's got a whole roll to go around !

[Aerosol]

Yea, I wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of those either.

Hmm. What would a roll of 200 fetch on eBay? I think I'll keep 'em.

And there you have it, right from the man's twitter.

... I'd still love having myself one though. Then again, who wouldn't.

[Aerosol]

I don't like how he put that.

I added the info to the wiki, just thought the info shouldn't be lost.

[MastaSys]

Am I the only one that think they would look like knock offs? XD

[SpeedStarTMQ]

Kinda now, yeah. At the time though? Think that would have been awesome. Would it have helped against piracy at all? They're more expensive to make and isn't that totally what piracy is about- making cheap knock-offs for as little dosh as possible?

Also, if he sells them, we've gotta pitch in and buy 'em. I know I probably would if they weren't too pricey, then sell them individually to people.
