Barney's Hide and Seek (1993, Genesis)

Barney says "Boing!" over the logo.


Aladdin (1993, Genesis):

To the right of a shining Sega logo there is the Genie, dressed as a referee with a stopwatch in one hand and a gun in another. He shoots a blank, causing Iago (and a couple of his feathers) to fall down from the top of the screen. The Genie looks to the left in puzzlement as he falls. The golden word ''PRESENTS'' pops up.

Asterix runs up to the left of the logo. He looks around, takes off his hat and polishes it, before putting it back on.


Baby Boom (Prototype) (1994, Genesis)

The Sega logo is on an indigo background, with a cartoon baby with peeking behind it, hands grabbing both sides of it. Due to being a prototype, this logo has noticeable graphical glitches - including the baby and falling 'O' from the title screen unintentionally appearing.

The Sega logo is seen on the ocean floor.


Alien Soldier (1995, Genesis):

From the top of the screen, a gray bunny character (who somewhat resembles Bugs Bunny), wearing a red bandana and sneakers, jumps into view, holding his hands toward us. He does a spin kick and hits the screen, showing us the Sega logo on his sole. Everything but the Sega logo fades out as it shines as if it were metallic.

The Sega logo as usual, shimmering and all. Suddenly, a demonic-sounding wolf howl is heard as the logo turns blood red, shining orange.


Cheese Cat-Astrophe Starring Speedy Gonzales (Genesis)

The Sega logo shines as usual, until Speedy Gonzales runs by it, forming a cloud of dust. It is then revealed that the logo has turned into cheese, and is more three-dimensional. Speedy runs past again, taking several bites off it, and once more as nothing is left but a few crumbs.

A red flag with the white word ''STATE'' on it flies in front of the Sega logo, transitioning to that of Sega Sports.


Comix Zone (Genesis, August 2, 1995)

On a white background, there is a light-blue (in Japan)/white (in North America) Sega logo outlined in black squashing down vertically and flips vertically twice. After that, Mortus' hand writes the word "Presents" under the logo. Accompanying this is, alongside the game's opening theme, the Sketch Turner saying "Test 1-2" with another announcer saying "Test". Sketch later says in his super hero voice "SEEEEGA!!".


Cool Spot (Genesis)

Earthworm Jim (Genesis)

Jim appears below the Sega logo, making a few heroic-looking poses, showing off his muscles. His pants suddenly fall down, revealing some polka-dot underwear. He notices and looks down, shocked and embarrassed at what has happened, and proceeds to cover it up with his hands, before pulling them back up and going back to his determined expression.


Earthworm Jim 2 (Genesis/Saturn, November 15, 1995)

Earthworm Jim is standing in front of the Sega logo constantly shining with the radial gradient, playing his accordion while Princess What's-Her-Name lies on the logo. Then Psy-Crow appears from behind and pokes Jim, making him seek for the fuss, and Psy-Crow kidnaps Princess What's-Her-Name in no time. When Jim looks back, he's embarrassed.

The letters of the Sega drop onto the screen one by one as an image of Sonic wearing cleats inside a soccer ball comes from the left, with the letters of the logo stretching and booting it off the screen.

The Sega logo swirls into view. The 'A' in the logo is a bit slanted for some reason.


The Ren & Stimpy Show In: Stimpy's Invention (Genesis)

In a reference to the parody ''Log'' commercial from the show, a wooden log with a marching band hat and a baton, as well as the letters of the Sega logo, march from the right as they bounce up and down.

On a royal blue background, the Sega logo draws out, then it rotates horizontally as the background fades to white. Then the Sega logo flies out letter by letter as the background fades to black. The audio is former Colossal Pictures director Jimbo Matison shouting "SEGA!" (previously featured in Sega's "Welcome To The Next Level" commercial campaign), then a twinkling bell sound.

A prototype version of Sonic 3D Blast exists where the logo shatters like glass instead of performing the closing transition from the final. Here, the traditional "SEEEEEEEEGAAAAAAAA!" yell was used, followed by the explosion.


Sonic Spinball (Genesis/Game Gear, November 15, 1993; 1994)

there is the Sega logo on a black background, but there's also an airplane (the X-Tornado), with Miles "Tails" Prower riding it, and Sonic on the Tornado's wings. The audio is a twinkling sound, followed by a synthesizer rendition of the "SEEEEEGAAAAAAAA!" yell, and another twinkling sound.

For the same game, on the Game Gear, Sonic is on ball form, forming the Sega logo. Then he does his waiting idle animation while the logo shimmers. A single 8-bit rendition of the jingle is heard.


Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis/Game Gear/Various Ports, June 23, 1991; 2012)

On a white background, the Sega logo appears via the appear/disappear wipe effect. The Sega logo then fully fades into view.

On the Game Gear version of said title, Sonic jumps to the right making the Sega logo appear and the wipe effect. Then he jumps back to the left and does his pose.

On Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, the logo was redone in HD and the registered symbol is in place of the trademark symbol.

On the Android/iOS version and both the Sonic Origins and Sonic Origins Plus ports of Sonic the Hedgehog, the logo is in widescreen.

All variants use a vocoder singing "SEEEEEEEEGAAAAAAAA!" after the logo forms.


Sonic The Hedgehog 2/Other Sonic and Non-Sonic Games (Genesis/Game Gear/Various Platforms, December 28, 1991-1997; August 15, 2017)

On a white background, Sonic runs in from the left of the screen, leaving a blue trail behind. Then he returns back to the left, leaving another trail behind. The trails form the Sega logo.

On the 8-bit version of said title, it's a still logo. It also appears on Sonic Chaos (known as Sonic & Tails in Japan), Coca-Cola Kid (only in Japan) and Tails' Adventure for Game Gear as well.

On Sonic Triple Trouble (known as Sonic & Tails 2 in Japan), the logo fades in from the white screen. Plus Sonic runs to the left then runs to the right like in Sonic 2 for Genesis, except the trails don't appear. After that, the Sega choir is heard.

On Sonic Blast and two non-Sonic titles (Virtual Fighter Animation and The Lost World: Jurassic Park) the logo has a blue outline. On the latter variant, the background is blue-green.

On Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II, the white stripes are left on the screen as Sonic and Tails runs through the screen which are covered by the white background layer on 16:9 display. For the PC version, it can be seen by replacing "8C 2E BA 3F" with "39 8E E3 3F" in the game's main executable using a hex editor, then running it on resolutions lower than 16:9 (e.g. 1280x800). While it was not originally meant to be seen, it is possible that this was done by mistake when animating the logo which they forgot to shorten the trail stripes so it only affects the Sega logo.


Sonic the Hedgehog 3/Sonic and Knuckles/Sonic 3 & Knuckles/Sonic Mania (Genesis/Various Platforms, February 2-October 18, 1994; 2017, 2022)

Just the Sega logo fading in on a white background.

On Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, after the "SEEEEEEEEGAAAAAAAA!" yell, the background turns to black as a 3D Sonic runs onto the screen and crashes into the Sega logo, scattering the letters as the game title appears.

On Sonic & Knuckles, after the "SEEEEEEEEGAAAAAAAA!" yell, the background turns to the Death Egg crash landing on Angel Island. The Sega logo shudders when the Death Egg crashes, and then wipes out to the left and right of the screen, bringing in the game's title.

A widescreen version was seen on Sonic Mania, Sonic Mania Plus and both the Sonic Origins and Sonic Origins Plus ports of Sonic 3 & Knuckles.


Spider-Man: The Animated Series (Genesis)

The Sega logo appears and shines in front of some blue webbing.


Spirou (Genesis)

The red fox companion from the game falls to the left of the Sega logo (which has the turquoise outline), runs behind and in front of it before jumping atop it and falling asleep, several small Zs appearing above its head. A synthesized marimba rendition of the Sega jingle is heard , followed by the snoring sounds from the fox.


Spot Goes To Hollywood (Genesis)

Spot is shown next to a marble slab at an angle. Holding a hammer, Spot whizzes around the slab in a cartoonish fashion, until he comes out and reveals he carved out a giant Sega logo. He spins the hammer around several times, but accidentally drops it on his foot, leaving him surprised and hopping around in pain.

Sylvester and Tweety in Cagey Capers (Beta) (Genesis)

On a purple background, Tweety flies over the Sega logo. Sylvester runs in and bumps into and jumps onto the Sega logo, running across before ultimately losing his balance and planting his face in the ground. Tweety rests on top of the logo, laughs at him, and winks.


Taz In: Escape From Mars (Prototype) (Genesis)

The Sega logo splits apart and each of the letters gain feet and run away and run to the left. It is revealed that Taz was chasing them, as he spins onto screen, stopping for a while as he throws a short tantrum and continues spinning to the left.


TazMania (Genesis)

Taz spins in from the right and stops beside the 'S'. He grabs it and eats it whole in one bite, and proceeds to rub his stomach and lick his lips.


The Tick/Spider-Man/X-Men: Arcade's Revenge (Genesis)

The Sega logo starts as a white outline, which fades to the regular fully-colored logo.


ToeJam and Earl (Genesis)

On a space background filled with purple stars, ToeJam and Earl's ship flies toward the Sega logo. One of them sneezes, causing the ship to jolt up and narrowly avoid crashing into the logo. An orange byline is below:

A soccer ball bounces toward the Sega logo, and the 'G' rotates, bouncing it back. The Sega logo is in a flat shade of light blue.

World Series Baseball 95/96/98 (Genesis)

A batter appears in front of the logo and smashes it into pieces with his bat as if hitting an incoming baseball. The Sega Sports logo appears in its place.

On the prototype of World Series Baseball 95, a generic mascot who almost looks like a purple Philly Phanatic walks backwards from the right and paces around as if trying to catch an incoming ball.

Same as the Sonic 2 variant, but Sonic is now a 3D model instead of a sprite.

Knuckles' Chaotix (March 1995)

On a purple space background, the Sega logo zooms in to the screen, then goes back while it's "wiggling" like a Jell-O. The logo then zooms in into the screen again while going black.

On prototypes of the game, the background is a CGI-like rendering of Newtrogic High Zone. The earlier prototype has a long synth-like sound. The later prototype had what sounded like a synth rendition of the SEGA chant, sounding suspiciously like the NBC chimes.
