Other versions[]
The Arabic (Basma), French, Italian (Italia 1 airings only) and Persian dubs all reused their opening themes from their respective dubs of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, and will not be listed on this page as a result. This is because Sonic SatAM and AoSTH were often packaged and dubbed together and treated as one in the same, despite both series being entirely different in tone. In all cases, the opening is re-edited and layered onto footage from Sonic SatAM while the audio remains the same. These openings can all can be found here.
Furthermore, the Albanian dub had also reused the opening from that show, although unlike the others, it is not an original arrangement; it uses the main AoSTH opening present in the original version and most of the dubs of that show instead. It also still uses the same AoSTH footage.
