Rumor: Tails Adventure getting mobile re-release and SEQUEL?
I looked up the Transformers Alliance trademark listed on Sega China's flyer and found several interesting things.
First, not only is the new Arcade game legit, it is INDEED a property of SEGA. Second, Sonic Jump now has a record and that SEGA Alliance is also a new publishing division for SEGA which from the sounds of it will replace SEGA's 3rd party publishing division.

Another Amusement Park Trademark for those who doubt ORBI and the mysterious "Spectrum".

Is SEGA planning not only a re-release of Tails Adventure but a NEW version as well?
Why would they not? After all he is the most popular character in the series right now.
