SegaSonic Popcorn Shop is a novelty popcorn vending machine released exclusively in Japan in the year 1993. The machine was developed by Sega and features a video screen allowing customers to play a mini-game featuring characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series. During the minigame, actual popcorn is being microwaved in another compartment inside the machine, and is ultimately delivered to the player once the game ends, regardless of how they play during the game.The machine offers popcorn in three different flavors: butter, salt, and chili. Once the customer enters a coin and selects the flavor they want, Sonic and Tails place a kettle of popcorn on a conveyor belt to move it into the stove. However, Dr. Eggman shows up and reverses the belt to move the wrong way, so Sonic must outrun the belt to insert the popcorn himself. Eggman chases him from behind and tries to crush him with a hammer, so the customer can help Sonic outrun Eggman by turning the crank handle on the machine until Sonic reaches a slide that leads the popcorn into the stove. Once the popcorn is in the stove, Sonic will instruct the player to continue turning the crank to help him cook it until it's done, after which Tails will put it in a cup and place it in the dispenser for the customer to take, before Sonic thanks them for waiting and invites them to come back any time.Due to the machine's exclusivity to Japan combined with it not being a traditional "game", for many years, it was one of the more obscure pieces of media in the Sonic franchise. It would end up gaining some recognition many years later after a reference to it was featured in Sonic Mania, where a popcorn machine modeled after it appears as a stage gimmick in Studiopolis Zone. | |

Foregone Victory | |
| SegaSonic Popcorn Shop (Video Game) / int_3460db2 | comment |
Foregone Victory: The game is intended to end with the player receiving their popcorn regardless of how they play during the game portion, as even if the player doesn't turn the crank at all, Sonic will dodge all of Eggman's hammer attacks, and if they don't turn the crank during the ending part, Sonic will eventually turn it himself. There is still the off chance of the machine malfunctioning, though, at which point the game will instruct the player to ask for assistance from a store employee. | |
