Sonic Drift
Sonic Drift (セガ ソニックドリフト) is a kart racing video game released in Japan only for the Sega Game Gear on March 18, 1994. It features Sonic the Hedgehog, Miles "Tails" Prower, Amy Rose, and Doctor Eggman. Players race around a track collecting rings and power-ups. The invincible theme of Sonic Drift is based on "Sonic - You Can Do Anything", the Japanese opening song from Sonic CD; in Sonic Drift 2, the invincible theme is from Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
Sonic Drift establishes a few characteristics for Amy Rose, who had her first appearance as a playable character in this game. The car she races in returns with her in future racing games Sonic R and Sonic and SEGA All-Stars Racing. The instruction manual also features a picture of Amy holding an umbrella that she will later have use of in gameplay in Sonic the Fighters.

Sonic Drift 2
Sonic Drift 2 (セガ ソニックドリフト2) is the sequel to Sonic Drift. It was released in Japan for the Sega Game Gear on March 17, 1995. The European version was released that same month as Sonic Drift Racing, and the North American release in November 1995. It added three characters: Knuckles, Fang the Sniper, and Metal Sonic, and marked the first time the last two were playable characters.
In the game, Chaos Emeralds are awarded for winning races. If Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Fang collect all six in the Blue GP, they will face Eggman in a final race around the Death Egg. If Eggman and Metal Sonic collect all six in the Blue GP, they will face Sonic in the final race.
Unlike its predecessor, this game was released internationally, and Sega Europe renamed it to Sonic Drift Racing; however, the title screen itself still used the name Sonic Drift 2.
