** ''Sonic 2'', for a number of reasons: It was ChristmasRushed (the team only had 9 months to work on it, instead of a full year), so tons of content had to be dropped (including, most famously, Hidden Palace Zone). The American and Japanese teams had difficulty working together. Mark Cerny, who founded STI, left the project part of the way through, leaving Masaharu Yoshii to take the reins. Thankfully, the game was completed and went on to become one of Sega's biggest sellers, but it wasn't easy getting there.

** To a lesser extent, ''VideoGame/KidChameleon''. Sega was extremely hesitant to let this new development team design a brand new character that might not catch on, and really made STI prove themselves. Thankfully, the results of this title turned out much better than ''Sonic X-treme''.
