Sonic may be the fastest thing alive, but our subject today surrounds a different type of speed.

On September 29, a 31-year-old man was arrested by police in Moultrie, Georgia and charged with methamphetamine possession after unknowingly attempting to pawn the illicit substance.

According to the officers, Jared Fournier entered a pawn shop around 5pm Tuesday and attempted to hock a Sega Genesis. While employees were hesitant to purchase the retro console, citing low demand, they inspected it anyway and discovered a bag of crystal meth inside the cartridge slot. Fournier denied ownership, but was arrested shortly thereafter when police arrived on the scene.

The drug unit at the local police department said the estimated street value of the meth was $15.

Finally, Blast Processing explained!

Sega does what Nintendon't indeed

[Hawk Hart]

That suck... He was gonna pawn his system to buy more meth and he found meth?! Terrible luck dude.

But seriously, Nintendon't do drugs kids, especially meth.

Shame it wasn't a Jaguar so I could make a "Do the Meth" joke

Well, Nash should get some good jokes out of that on WTFIWWY next week.

I keep my drugs in a TurboGrafx-16.

A 5200 gives you plenty of space

No wonder the guy that yelled "SEGA!" always sounded so wired.

Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, never can remember where the hell all my meth is.

But how much is the SEGA worth?

The fool, he should keep it in his N-Gage. No one would ever think to look there.

With the NES you have to jiggle it in just right

[Kevin Hamilton]

Hiding blow in an NES cartridge would be damned literal.

This does remind me. I was once getting a ride home from my cousin (huge pot head) and he was pulled over by the cops. The officer saw I had a digimon keychain (or something like it, I can't remember), spent about half an hour trying to open it to find drugs, before just smashing in on the ground on stomping on it. When he found nothing he just said that's what I get for hanging around a pot head.

So THAT'S how Ballz 3D came into existence.

[Cyno]

That must've been the entire explanation behind the Sonic games. It turns out that Sonic was just some regular hedgehog in New Mexico who came upon a bag of crystal meth. After he imagined running through hoops and collecting rings in order to destroy an evil robot army, Sonic escaped his drug-induced haze.

He then went to eat, but he lost all his little hedgehog teeth.

Yeah, how dare you hang out with your cousin.

So THAT'S what the Chaos emeralds were.
