Sonic CD's Creepy Secret Message 

The japan version: go,go,go,go, pa-pa-pa-pow! *Beat Drop* The us version: you're gonna die

That Sonic does not look like an enemy. It most like says 'Have fun for eternity.', but in good meaning.

I remember that when I was a kid I loaded up my brand new copy of Sonic CD and my brother noticed I got it, and started fighting me for the controller. It resulted in both of us doing a tug of war for the controller. A few buttons got pressed, and we found the sound test menu. We were sooo confused, and somehow we guessed the right combination. To say we were horrified is an understatement. I didn't play it for almost a month, and my brother decided he should ask to play instead of fighting me for it. I still laugh, but also shudder a little over it

Fun fact: majin Sonic was supposed be silly

The real reason why they put the boss theme because it sounded silly and it was a joke screen. The American version made the screen turn out creepy

"Infinite fun!" "Sega Enterprises" "image by Majin" *-trollface sonic lol*

1993: "I'm not creepy, I'm just a meme made by the administrator himself" 2021: "Let's rap battle and have infinite fun"

Excellent research! Majin means "male witch" (魔人) or "demon" (魔神) in Japanese. Nishimura-san's nickname まぢん　Madin (literal spelling), is also read "Ma-jin". Hence the pun on demon/male witch, and the creepyness. Japanese kids would not have been terrified as much, because they knew the guy was an illustrator or one of the people who worked on the game and this was like his personal calling card, plus the music isn't as scary as the Western version. They still would have been creeped out a little - because the font though for 'Fun ∞ Sega Enterprises' (たのしい∞セガ・エンタープライゼス）is creepy for those who know how to read Japanese. Its like ghost handwriting.

Cant wait for the sequel: Sonic DvD

Dont worry, it doesn't mean fun is infinite. It means "Sega Enterprises"

Finally I now know what was up with that creepy screen. Honestly I would still find it a creppy even in the japanese version, because of the dark coloring and that disturbing face. It didn't really scare me when I was young and found this, but it did disturb me something fierce.

Knowing how it was intended definitely makes it a little less nightmare inducing, thank you

“Then…this happens.” *japaneese kid starts breakdancing*

"The year is 1993.." The screen: I'm going to pretend I never heard that

If you remix it, it sounds like a banger

For someone with 6000 subscribers this is insanely entertaining.

Japan: 4:53 OH YEAH THIS IS A *BANGER* usa: 1:23 *AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH* *having anxiety attack*

ah yes I to remember sega creating such a horrifying sound test secret saying "Infinite fun sega enterprises"

5:04 why am i dancin to this

people watching it in 2020: Scary people watching it in 2021 (BIG CHANCE FOR A CHILD): OmG iTs mAJiN sOnic fRom FnF

You should do more gaming mysteries they're really well done and detailed as much as possible

Fun Fact: Majin actually is the name of a Genie

I’m not scared of majin because I imagine him instead of being all scary and killing and stuff, I imagine him as like helping you, through hard things and times. But you have to do something to summon him first. and... yea. Kinda like a good bill cipher

3:20 Sounds like my friends father, like a ho ho ho ho ho ho. Mischievous laughter. Or however it's said

Such a lovely and innocent message for such a creepy image

the actual creator of this.... "wow! this was not my intentions ! "

Infinite fun sets enterprises by majin Japanese: 無限の楽しみセット エンタープライズ by majin

I knew about this, because 1. People are tweaking about this screen, thinking it's gonna come to their nightmares. And 2. I was all like "I bet one of the staff under the nickname who worked on this game made this artwork, alongside other cool artworks", before this video came out.

I didn't know that the Sega CD had its own Konami code

When I heard "Majin" I imma thought Sonic was part of DBZ

So I’m guessing, that Majin was the one who did this.

The four way fracture with lyrics when majin says "you have lived too far to say that one more damm time" is my favorite line

Back then: oh god i cant sleep the demon sonic will kill me now: Trollface Sonic Goes Brrr

1:25 OMG IS THAT TROLLFACE SONIC

4:56 Me when the school says that I graduate: 5:40 Me when they didn’t send a photo of me graduate: 5:46 Me when they gave me a photo of my self graduate:

Thanks for uploading this I now can't sleep tonight

the music takes a whole difreent vibe in the japenese

FUN IS ENDLESS.

Friend: "yeah lol i found a new bug or feature idk" Kid: "yeah imma try that at night" bruh

Ngl the English version is still kinda a banger like I can kinda hear scary music with a bomb rock music with laughs which is pretty cool in 2021 since like most of us like scary stuff

lol that sonic looks funny Edit: how did this get so many likes

The Japanese version is a big troll of the English version is a dark hidden meaning yeah right it was just a misunderstanding

"Some kind of creepy mask" Dream fans imediatly: ThAtS wHaT tHe PoInT Of ThE MaSc Iz

The first time i saw this i was frozen and my mind was processing if it was suppised to be scary or funny

4:09 that blue name looks sus

Since you said to enter the code on the japanese version, that sound is a boss battle sound.

4:50 For the Japanese version of the sonic CD secret message

This purple sonic you were talking about is called "majin sonic" a character that protects sonics mind

Another fun fact, the JP music also played in the PAL version of the game - so it was pretty much only the US version that was considered creepy

My search history after I finish this video: how do sleep with no nightmares

You have just earnt a sub. im gonna tell my friends who think this is a creepy thing and make their scared face upside down

Fun fact: Many people thinks Majin sonic has a mustache but actually Maijn has a shadowed cheekbone so it Iooks like a mustache

5:50 FINALLY a reason to play Megalovania on a creepy image!

Wow man this video thank God I found it. It made me understood this message like you said made everyone confused and misunderstood the concept. Thanks for making this video It helped me out and probably many more people! Stay safe and continue on!

Japanese version: IT'S JUST A PRANK BRO 🤣 American version: Every second you're not running, I'm only getting closer

Japanese version: "Yay, you found a secret, good job!" American version: "So you have chosen death."

I remember playing sonic CD but never knowing about this secret.

When he did the comparison thing, when I heard the second song on top of the screen, I just felt like I'd been trolled.

90s majin sonic: Scarying the creep out of kids Majin sonic in 2021: being one of the best creepy pasta mods in fnf

when i was younger i heard the american version of majin and instead of being scared i danced to it

American Kids with the Japanese version: YO ITs GOoD

6:37 Music playing: Beware the forest mushrooms (Super Mario RPG)

"Have some fun" -The best sonic ever

Istead of the Time Stones, Sonic collected the Phantum Ruby's in Sonic CD and this would have been a very cursed, yet indeering introduction to Infinite lol

Can’t wait for the sequel of that creepy character: say no one

what about the smiling face for the smile and frowning masks that represent drama club performances

1:25 Tencelll: Oh! This is a good song for terry glove!

always used to think the face was supposed to be robotnik/eggman.

I remember when I could not sleep when I heard this music and saw this song but ever sense this man covered the case and put the other music that should have been the theme I now be like :oh look a wild funni sonic 😳 Edit: Tbh sega should have made the screen more lighter or some thing and not sound look or act creepy

When i first found this, and learn of the translation I was like "Wait, so Sonic works for Babidi now?"

“The year is 1993” The year on top of the screen saying “1992”: AM I A JOKE TO YOU

this secret message always disturbs me and gives me the creeps

when i use an emulator and enter the code.. *crash intensifies*

Imagine an child alone in the dark figuring the code out 1:23

Thank god, I saw this in my recommended and this screen when I was a kid I always got nightmares. But after listening to the Japanese version, I think I'm good!

Finding this: American kid: Crying in fear Japanese kid: Dancing

1:49 This is what made sonic exe mod

this screen is my ipad background i found it cool back in the day

Actually, the game is infected my magic, I translated "Majin" and in japanese it means conjurer

Infinite Fun with Bunny Hop playing in the background is creepier than the normal Infinite Fun.

This gives me some nostalgia because remember playing that type of Sonic before around when I was 5

The japan version: *happy music* The normal version: infinte fun sega enterprises Sonic.exe is coming for you :)

That music at the end got me fell of the chair

Fun fact that sonic is called “Majin Sonic”

3:03 satan

Imagen finding that on accident

Fun fact: majin sonic actually has magic of multiplayers he can fly and teleport he makes clones

5:47 when madzin sonic is happy and it was April fool's for him

I was at my uncle's house playing this game and my uncle told me to enter those digits I had nightmares for days

Magin Sonic: Pls don't turn me into a fnf mod Me: *uses magic on Magin Sonic* Fnf Magin Sonic: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Looks like the original intent for it was to be goofy, but the music of the US version changed the vibe to creepy.

My reaction to that information a revelation of which i cannot comprehend how could you come up with something so bizarre making me rupulse from that thought now

Kids in Japan seeing the secret: Oh I got spooked there for a sec- oh this track noice lez party bois we got some gaming to do! Kids in America seeing the secret: What the- MOMMY!! I'M SCARED MY CD IS POSSESSED!! 1 A.M: Just go to sleep, go to sleep, it won't hurt you just go to sleep for just 30 minutes. It won't harm you it isn't real so all I'm asking. 30 minutes- THAT THING IS GONNA KILL ME!!! SONIC WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!?! YOU USED TO BE THE ONE I LOVE AND NOW YOU'RE GONNA KILL ME! MOMMY!!!

Imagine its just a bug

Oh darn the Japanese version of the song is a bop

4:30 it looks nothing alike, it sounds like an insult

6:10 *hol up where'd u get that evidence?*

KIdS bE LiKe: HeY ThAtS fRoM tHe SoNiC.ExE MoD fNf

So Satan disguises himself with a nickname called Majin? To glitch into a videogame without Jesus knowing this?

1:21 literally slap battles elude music
