Sonic the Fighters/Trivia


 * Cut Song: For obvious reasons, the theme for the unused Sunset Town arena goes unheard. Also for less known reasons, no version of the game uses the proper theme for the Death Egg Hangar arena (the original arcade version has no music, all others use the Sonic vs Knuckles theme).
 * No Export for You: The game only received a very limited US release prior to its port in Sonic Gems Collection. This changed though after Model2 Collection's re-release on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network.
 * What Could Have Been:
 * There is a scrapped character called Honey the Cat that can be found in the games code. Also, Sonic the Fighters was originally meant to have a port for the Sega Saturn, but it was scrapped. Oh, and the Metal Sonic seen in the opening was supposed to be fightable.
 * There is a hidden song named "Sunset Town", which apparently was supposed to be a stage in the original game, possibly for Honey the Cat. However, there are no models for the scrapped arena.
 * This game is the second of two Classic Sonic appearances that Espio the Chameleon makes. His only other appearance was in Knuckles Chaotix. Curiously, the other chaotix members are completely absent.
