Sonic passing out a Sonic Happy Meal.

McDonalds has had two separate promotions which made Sonic LCD games available with the purchase of a happy meal. These types of games normally sold for 10-20 dollars in earlier times but during the 2003 promotion McDonalds stated that the refinement of cell-phone technology led to the refinement of the production. This probably made this kind of toy more affordable to produce and be included as a happy meal toy. Although at this point of time there's probably few who would pay much for a toy of this type as the portables of the time had achieved SNES-level graphic and sound capabilities.

The first promotion was from June 27 till July 24 in 2003. The second promotion lasted from the 3rd of December till the 27th. As part of the second promotion 2,500 silver colored games were randomly included in place of the normal colored games. 25 of the customers that received this would be given a prize of large value while the remaining 2,475 winners would win a Sega game, which could be either Sonic Heroes or Sonic Mega Collection Plus. In addition to the standard and silver colored cases there was also an alternate casing for some of the games.
