The official Sonic the Hedgehog bible and other sega oddities leaked

Dean Sitton (The guy who came up with the name Dr. Robotnik, level designer for Chakan the Forever man, the dude from the kid chameleon box art) comes through again. As a former SOA employee, he was given a “Sonic the Hedgehog” bible to help localize the game with. This is never-before-seen stuff recently released out of the kindness of his heart. What these are, are guides sega put out intending to be the absolute source on sonic the hedgehog so there would be hegemony in marketting. Every franchise goes through stuff like this, but it’s rare that they get leaked to the public. There are 3 documents which are listed from oldest to newest, so you can see all the revisions they did.
