** Interestingly, unrelated stories in ''WesternAnimation/SonicSatAM'' and ''ComicBook/SonicTheComic'' feature Robotnik trapping Sonic in a giant pinball table (not themed after the games), explicitly for the second reason. Except in those, Robotnik is the one in control of the flippers.

Added DiffLines:
** Two of the game's bosses are a screaming robotic scorpion with Robotnik's face, and the Roboiler, a boiler with four UncannyValley Robotnik heads that ''vomit boiling lava.''
Added DiffLines:
** The GameBoy Advance port included in Sega Smash Pack suffers from extreme screen crunch, making it difficult to see much of anything in the direction Sonic is moving.
