This simple screen is used as a failsafe and anti-piracy (detected if the game fails to detect a link cable upon boot) in the sonic advance series, or at least the first two games. I've personally seen this screen both using bad emulation to play the first game (this would consistently happen when entering the tiny chao garden) and my physical copy of advance 2 (very old and worn down, probably just a reading issue or something) abruptly cut to this exact screen after finishing hot crater act 2. This screen is just a completely empty multiplayer match, and I guess is just wherever the game sends you when it doesn't know where else to. tcrf recently documented this screen for the first two advance games, complete with a screenshot that I used to make this project! the question is, does this screen exist in the third entry? please leave a comment if you have any personal experience with these screens, I'd love to hear about it! (or maybe go comment on the profile of my main account @spybaz because I don't check this acc's messages very often) wow that was a lot of words oh uhh the music is from sonic advance 2, if you couldn't guess
