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.
Uh-huh…
I look forward to someone dumping the ROM so I can load it up on my emulator once, mess around with it for five minutes, go "huh," and forget about it forever afterward but still keep sitting in my emulation folders for completeness' sake along with Austin Powers Pinball, The New Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley, and those weird naked Japanese mahjong games.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck that sounds cool as hell. I doubt a single media outlet will EVER put them in a genesis. And I doubt any collectors will ever put one in a genesis. Youtube streamers are the only ones who would ever put them in the genesis, as part of their video....but only then.
"Hey guys we made this cool thing, that does this cool retro function!"
"Whoa!!! That's awesome!!!
...........let's all collectively NEVER use it."
I believe I saw a shorts video from IGN playing it. It has a couple of posters, some voice lines from the characters, and a mini game, where you run from Shadow, that you can't win or lose.
