 * Sonic Spinball and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine were not on my original timeline because they were games based after the cartoon.
 * The storybooks do deserve a place in the timeline before and after Sonic Unleashed
 * Arcade and miscellaneous games, Mario & Sonic series and Smash Bros games are non-canon and stand alone games. (SegaSonic the Hedgehog and Sonic the Fighters maybe the acception due to their recognition.)

Games that I have unspecifically organised as in canon order of release date as well. i put spinball on their becouse i like turn volnanio into fortress designed just to ruin sonic's day

and i put the M&S and smash games as i think it's pretty cool to see Mario and sonic in the same place Sonic Spinball is perhaps based on SatAM, maybe Archie comics and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine obviously based on AoSTH.

But to me, Sonic games with Mario in them (or vice versa) are not canon.
