| − | '''Mr. Needlemouse''' was one of several prototypes of the character [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] by his designer [[Naoto Ohshima]]. The name is an alternative translation of "Mr. Hedgehog", as ''needlemouse'' is a direct translation of the Japanese word for ''[[hedgehog]]'' (ハリネズミ, ''harinezumi''). | + | ;Unofficial |

| − | The character was implemented in a 2008 [[sega:sprite|sprite]] [[Sonic hacks|hack]] of the first [[Sonic the Hedgehog (16-bit)|Sonic the Hedgehog]] game by [[MKAmeX]], which remains in development, is planned to include a total graphical rehaul based on early concept art, and is documented in the article ''[[Mr. Needlemouse (hack)]]''.

| − | Mr. Needlemouse was later referenced when in 2009 [[sega:Sega|Sega]] chose "Project Needlemouse" as the official codename for ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog 4]]'', likely to accompany their promotion of said game as a classic-styled return to Sonic's roots. Coincidentally, the same codename had been chosen by independent game developers [http://www.needlemouse.com/ Defective Studios] for their game ''Needlemouse: The Emerald Hills''. Their registration of the website needlemouse.com, and displaying concept art for the game there, led some fans to believe that it and ''Sonic 4'' were connected. Defective soon released a statement that this was not the case, and that the similarity was simply a coincidence.
