I know Sonic Team would probably never reference that game (whether it be because of the legal issues, or the fact not many people played that game), but it's still worth noting.

Also worth noting: Didn't Secret Rings (which is presumed canon thanks to it's reference in Generations) imply that Sonic went on a bunch of adventures inside that book, until he finally made it back to the real world? Just what I heard, I've never finished that abomination of a game. Perhaps in that time period, Eggman could've taken over the planet. They have said the game is not a sequel to any previous entry.
