Team Sonic Racing’s opening movie not included in the Switch version
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Sumo Digital created an opening movie for Team Sonic Racing, which can be seen when booting up the game… except when playing on Switch. For whatever reason, the video is missing in action. No one has an official reason as to why at present.
Could it have something to do with the game’s file size? Team Sonic Racing weighs in at about 7GB, but if the opening movie was included, it may not be able to fit on an 8GB Switch cartridge. Seeing as larger carts cost more money for publishers to produce, perhaps SEGA decided not to include it.

For many, may years, Game Freak has been strongly attached to the Pokemon franchise. However, we’ve seen the studio branch out as of late with the likes of HarmoKnight, Pocket Card, Jockey, and Giga Wrecker Alt.
Giga Wrecker Alt. stems from a second production team at Game Freak that works on original titles. And according to programmer and director Masayuki Onoue, the Gear Project team is being prioritized – even “more than Pokemon in general.”
