Similar to Super Smash Bros. or Marvel Vs Capcom, Fighters Megamix is a crossover fighting title with a roster filled with Sega AM2 characters. 

Although the main ensemble consists of the cast of Virtua Fighter and Fighting Vipers, the hidden characters are more left-field. The secret combatants include a polar bear called Bark, a duck called Bean, a literal bean donned in a sombrero, prototype models from Virtua Fighter, and kid versions of two Virtua Fighter characters.

If that wasn't surreal enough, you can also unlock a car from the arcade tile, Daytona USA. Not only is this concept in itself bizarre, it's hilarious to see an automobile standing upright with its wheels held out in a "put up your dukes" stance. 

And if players manage to clock up to 84 hours of playtime, they can play as the Sega AM2 logo, which happens to be a palm tree. 

If that wasn't weird enough, you can also unlock a piece of sentient meat, who's simply called Mr. Meat. Mr. Meat isn't based on any Sega AM2 property, which makes you wonder what incentivised the developers to create him in the first place.
