'''Sega''' is a video game company. The mascot of Sega is [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], though it used to be [[Wikipedia: Alex Kidd|Alex Kidd]] until 1991. In the past, Sega used to be the rival company of [[Nintendo]]. Both companies made fun of the other company's mascot many times. | '''Sega''' is a video game company.

An early mockery heppened in Alex Kidd's final game, ''Alex Kidd in Shinobi World''. The first boss was originally going to be named Mari-Oh, a parody of Mario, however, it was changed to Kabuto. A later mockery was in the back of the box of ''Sonic the Hedgehog''. The text on the back of the box includes "Super", a mockery of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. There are also characters called the "Marxio Brothers" in Sonic the Comic, a British comic. | An early mockery heppened in Alex Kidd's final game, ''Alex Kidd in Shinobi World''.

To counter these mockeries of Mario, [[Rare]] had Sonic and Earthworm Jim make "cameo appearances" in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. Although they apparently joined [[Cranky Kong]]'s contest of collecting [[DK Coin]]s, Sonic and Jim apparently did not succeed in getting many coins. Neither ranked third place, and the pair seemed to have fled from [[Mushroom World]]. Sonic left his shoes behind when he left and Earthworm Jim left behind his blaster, both of which were put by a trash can, and labeled "No Hopes". Another (possible) mockery is the [[Harry Hedgehog]] enemy in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. Its blue coloration and rather quick moving pace may have been a mockery of Sonic; however, this may have been a coincidence. | To counter these mockeries of Mario, [[Rare]] had Sonic and Earthworm Jim make "cameo appearances" in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.
