Just in case the release of Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection isn’t quite nostalgic enough for you, the publisher has announced that an incredibly limited run of vinyl soundtracks are now available through eBay. Yes, a proper record and everything!
The records are limited to a mere 3500, and the very first one is now available through eBay’s Australian wing. All money made on the item will be going to the Cancer Council of Australia. Shipping is free and worldwide, just in case you thought you couldn’t bid.
The soundtrack is pressed on blue vinyl and includes music from Space Harrier, Ristar, Vectorman, Golden Axe, Phantasy Star II and Vectorman II. Strangley, for an album titled Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection, there is no mention of any Sonic music.
Still, if you have more money than sense and want to help out a good cause, go place a bid.
