The Pico doesn’t even register as a ‘game’ system in my book.
I would say more like a … conduit for educational preamble. If that makes sense

Here are some magazine scans. I hope that it’s what you’re looking for. I only saw the one with the road with a “Sonic lane”.

hey cool! Thanks for that page, but the one i’m after was a television advert
creates a sonic R website
i loathe jet set radio future. i don’t even want to go into how much i hate it. just know that the first one is probably my favorite game ever.
Really? I put jet set radio future as one of the best Sega games, especially with the included multiplayer. Whatr didn’t you like about it Mega?
Ha! Sonic R brings back good memories…
My foolish friend traded it with me for Megaman X3, ahahahaha! I laughed so much…
I was never truely good at Megaman X3 so I was at no loss.
But Sonic R…drools Loved that game…no replay value? Try going on the last level (Diamond…Crystal…course of…shinyness, whatever) as Super Sonic and racing Knuckles. The challenge is to STAY AHEAD OF HIM THE ENTIRITY OF THE COURSE excluding the first 5-10 secs.
It’s impossible! He goes hyper…damn that Knuckles, how can he match Super Sonics speed?!
Worst game? It escapes me at the moment…but I remeber that I truly despised it for cheating away precious minutes of my life…
OMG…I think it was when I was little…like…6-8 and I didn’t understand PDS properly. I couldn’t understand that manual for crackers and just tried plunging into it…where as I got stuck and got angry.
Or was it Shining the Holy Ark, about the same time, where Doyle said he’d meet me later that night…which I obviously ignored and ventured into the forest looking for a boss, which I couldn’t find.
Yeah thats the one! >< In my dumbass years…
Ah yeah, the dumbass years. I remember Phantasy Star III being “my stupidest” game. I had rented it and in those three days I don’t even think I got Mieu…
Then again it was my first RPG and I must’ve been 6 or 7. Didn’t really grasp the whole concept 
Anyways…worst game for me would have to be…Timestalkers/Climax Landers.
I was so thrilled when I saw previews with pics of Nigel and Friday from Landstalker and then it was some pseudo-dungeon crawler. Ick.
I can’t believe no one has mentioned Nightshade!
I just remembered Flashback. Oh dear Lord, Flashback. First level? Ok, good, steep difficulty curve but possible.
Then came the JUMP OF DOOM. At the beginning of the second level, you were required to jump from one platform to a higher one. It sounds amazingly easy but I couldn’t manage it for FOUR DAYS. After that the game had to go back to the renting shop.
I never hired it out again.
And another such game was Maximum Carnage, although that wasn’t developed by Sega (it also appeared on SNES, tis how I remember). HOW MANY BOSSES DID THAT GAME HAVE!? And they could rape your energy bar (apologies for the use of the word but it’s the only way to convey just how bad it was) in 2 seconds whilst your hits were weak as a kittens.

Since when was Flashback developed by Sega or one of it’s houses? As far as I know it was made by Delphine Software, and if you’ve ever played Out of this World it was basically a spiritual successor to it, even though the original was obviously better.

GAH! I remember playing that at friends! I HATED that so much! They hadn’t touched it, so I had a go…for hours on end I was attempting that, went late into the night where as my friend reminded me I wasn’t in my own house.

XD I remeber that!
I got as far as a point where you have to do odd jobs for money, and one of them required me to shut down a reactor before it blew up and took the city with it. That was worse than the jump >.<. You ran through several screens OF DEATH, before coming to the reactor, normally with around 3 seconds to spare. There you had to examine the reactor, and find the slot that was malfunctioning, and fix it. There were afew of them, and the “right” one seemed to be randomly generated, and you pretty much had to get it right FIRST TRY or you’d die. I only made it to the end three times and when I saw the 2D cutscene of the reactor exploding for the third time, I screamed, threw down the control pad and didn’t touch the game for several years.
Actually…I recall reading a guide for that bit. It wasn’t randomly generated…It was the one in the centre, if I recall.
