If you live in Japan and pre-order Sonic Colors, you don’t get a sweet effin’ hat. You get this card. What is this card?
This card allows you to play as Sonic in a popular Japanese arcade game called The Great Historical War: Gettenka, a game that takes place during the Sengoku, or “Warring States,” period. You get cards and put them in the thing and you battle with them at the place with the fighting and the stuff.
That’s about it.
Thank you to frequent TSS commenter Edge for this news tip.

This would probably be really cool for someone who lives in Japan and plays the game.
Ya think?
I think I just jizzed my pants…
Wait so you get the cards and you put them in the stuff, and then put the stuff on the place with the fighting with the battle?
I only pre-ordered Sonic Colours to get the hat
Cool thing, if you’re in card games.
Meh, the card seems cool. Might want to get it early before it’s worth money 😛
Attack with the blue hedgehog in ancient Japan for MASSIVE DAMAGE!
I’d take anything over that idiotic hat.
Oh so it works like M###o kart machine then.
There’s something quite charming and amusing about the thought of seeing Sonic fight during the Sengoku period.
I’d much rather get the card than the hat anyday 😛
Really cool if you play said game and live in Japan. Ill stick with my awesome hat.
Looks like a neat bonus. Too bad arcades are dead in the US.
I finally got on the front page for something! I just wish SEGA showed footage of this in action.
I can tell this card will be going for a lot on eBay.
Who knew Sonic lived in Classical China.
I want… I wonder if I can pre-order online.. hm..
I’m happy with the Sonic hat.
