Some supposedly unreleased Sonic 2 music

I don't know what the yikes is about. I was already tweeting questions and getting replies well before I came to Retro and saw there was a thread on here, I half expected it not to and I was going to make one myself. As I stated, I don't care what you guys do, I'm not associated with Retro. I'm not "trying to be a hero" or "be a rebel." I'm just stating, I am already asking questions, and getting responses for my own personal research. I'm pretty certain if people are actually asking this guy legitimate questions, he will answer them. There's plenty of internet for everyone.

 

This has been proven time and time again to be the truth in the Sonic community. History repeats itself and former devs have been scared away before.

 

Three years ago ... after reading about a tool which was once part of the Sega Mega Drive dev kit provided by Sega to third parties called MEGA-WICE (Westwood Icon & Character Editor)... designed by american programmer Joseph B. Hewitt IV (Lion King, Dune, Comand & Conquer, etc)... I contacted the creator of said tool on Reddit... as my english sucks I was unable to ask him more about the subject... at the time I was awaiting aproval here... I asked for help here ... no one cared... it was the first and last time I tried to contact a programmer...

 

Am I the only one that notices (maybe due to the quality of the recording) that the Sonic graphic looks strikingly similar to his render in Sonic 3?
That's grabbing my attention more than a 4 second clip of music :v:

 

Thinking more about this -- its entirely possible another track of tunes were composed. I recall an early beta of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on the megadrive having a completely different sound track. They could have had these tunes in another build at one point after the nick arcade.

 

By the way, that "Baby" track might not be from any "Baby" game. The name could be just a reference to the Looney Tunes episode "Baby Bottleneck", where it's most known for appearing in.

 

Cough cough

Why cough cough?

I'm surprised that none of us had spotted that (pretty awesome) video since it was uploaded in 2016.

Here's an interview with him: http://www.sega-16.com/2008/07/interview-david-javelosa/

 

What does the post say? It won't let me see it because I don't have a twatter account :|

Oh, so "Baby" was both the music from Baby Bottleneck and for (some version of?) the unreleased Baby Boom:

Cool.

EDIT: How interesting, the music in the prototype seems to have its own ersatz Powerhouse:

...As well as a nod to it in a different track:

(Separate post because the board doesn't allow to post three videos in one)

 

So uh....what the hell? Why is it so different sounding? It sounds like some aero acro bat shit? It leaves me more confused than anything......
