Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing Characters: Amigo from Samba de Amigo

This is a video showing off two of the games where Amigo originates from. This is more or less so people will have some idea of where some of where the non Sonic characters come from.

Samba de Amigo is a rhythm game originally developed by Sonic Team and released in 1999 by Sega in arcades, 2000 for the Dreamcast video game console, and developed by Gearbox Software in 2008 for the Wii. The player uses controllers shaped like maracas with the goal of matching a series of patterns displayed on-screen. It can be played by one or two players simultaneously.

The music in Samba de Amigo is made of primarily popular Latin music songs rather than common or traditional samba. The game also features non-Latin pop songs.

Samba de Amigo is played with a pair of maracas. As a song plays, the player, guided by on-screen graphics, must shake the maracas at high, middle, or low heights with the beat of the music, or occasionally must strike poses with the maracas held in various positions. The player is represented on-screen by Amigo, a monkey. If the player does well, the scene around the monkey (usually a concert or a dance) will attract more people and become more vividly animated; if the player does poorly, characters leave and eventually all that's left is the monkey alone, looking sad.

The reason I made this was because I thought that everyone knew about most of the Sega characters but most only knew of only the Sonic characters. I'll be doing one for all the characters confirmed to be in besides the Sonic Characters. Hope you enjoy the video.
