I...don't understand. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is about Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2 for the Dreamcast, and they put it on a platform two generations before that game or the Dreamcast were ever created?

I think the did it because that’s the platform the game Sonic the Hedgehog 3 was released on.

That one and S&K had Knuckles instead of Shadow, who debuted in Sonic Adventure 2.

I expect it's because when you mention Sonic, most people just think MegaDrive/Genesis. They're not going for technical details.
