The legendary King of Pop made an appearance in this series of games released for the Dreamcast. He had a cameo appearance near the end of the first game and was known as Space Michael - where he got saved from the enemies by the lead character. His role was further expanded in the game's sequel - he is now the leader of Space Channel 5 and helps the player by using his singing abilities to defeat a singing robot and joins the protagonist on their quest. Well, what else would you have expected from a Japanese game?
