# Talk:Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure

I've added some extra information to the article, such as the zone list and multi player info. (Galvy 14:20, 6 February 2006 (UTC))

Image:Sonic The Hedgehog, Pocket Adventure.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I'll get to this eventually. Cognissonance (talk) 10:32, 12 February 2018 (UTC)


### Lead
"highly positive reviews" pops out at me as potentially WP:POV. I'd suggest removing "highly" from the lead and reception.
Done


### Gameplay
"There is a time trial mode which will tank the player" Does this refer to a tank being filled or the informal use of "to fail"? I think clarification is in order.
LOL, typo. Should say RANK
"two competitive two player modes" If it means what I think it means, there needs to be a hyphen between "two" and "player".
yes, changed


### Development and release
"the creators of the handheld Neo Geo Pocket Color system, SNK" reads like it refers to SNK as a handheld system. Name SNK before the system to clarify.
Rewrote the sentence
Add link to 8-bit.
done
"The game was released in Japan two weeks later" This must be more specific to justify the exact date in the infobox, along with a source that substantiates this, as ref. 9 (IGN) doesn't specify. If ref. 11 (Arcade) does, ignore the additional sourcing.
added IGN source with exact date


### Overall
I have a soft spot for smaller articles like this. Nice work. Cognissonance (talk) 12:08, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

@Cognissonance: Done. Thanks for the review. TarkusABtalk 00:19, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

Ian Flynn (part of the Sonic Lore Team and a writer for the series' games and comics) asked to reference Sonic Pocket Adventure multiple times, but the verdict he got is that due to rights issues, the game is completely blacklisted from the franchise. It's unclear as to what the issues are, but there has been speculation such as the Knuckles Boss which uses his original Sonic 3 theme (which is part of the Michael Jackson catalogue of S3K music and is legally messy), but considering even the name is off limits (Ian Flynn said this a while ago) it's more likely to do with SNK.
