Sonic, also known as Sonic the Hedgehog is a series of video games by Sega starring Sonic the Hedgehog, a character also considered the mascot of Sega. Most games feature Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik as the main antagonist.

Being Sega's mascot, Sonic appearing with the Sega logo in Sega Genesis/Sega CD games is not considered a link to the Sonic series.

Links to Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection are only listed on the Sega Genesis Collection page, as this game is not a part of the Sonic series, despite having Sonic in the name.
