Coronation Street - Chesney plays Sonic the Hedgehog... on a boring, beige Windows PC
15This scene seems totally bizarre until you remind yourself that this was 2006 (29th August to be exact), not 1991 when Sonic was initially released in the UK. The scriptwriters wouldn't have to pretend it was possible to run the exclusive title on anything other than a SEGA console or Mega PC; Chesney could have been emulating the ROM.
No, we were right first time; it's still an odd choice. Why not show him blasting alien monsters in Doom 3? Or if the producers really wanted to demonstrate a retro game for nostalgia and recognisability reasons, run it via a SEGA Mega Drive?
In any case, it's possible what we are seeing is the playback of a pre-recorded capture of the game. That would have been easier for prop purposes.
