Yeah, honestly until the very end it was kinda believable, the grammar lined up pretty well (It's a screen most wouldn't see often and would probably not have been double checked), and the way you find it looked kinda like how people beat super mario world in less than 1 minute, by doing a series of random things and writing code into the screen. Even the slow loading, almost seeming to crash was believable, as it would load slowly as it tried to figure out "What did you do...?" before deciding "Uh... sure, this. Why not. Anti-piracy message!"
This video was made using an official copy. That's how you access the anti-piracy screen with a normal copy, hence the "You shouldn't be here" line. Normally the screen would show up as soon as an illegal copy was detected.

I hope you see this comment. This VHS effect is masterful. I've seen hundreds of videos get it wrong, but to my knowledge, this has been the most accurate VHS effect I've ever seen, right down to the sound. The horror is subtle, yet effective. I love this and I sincerely hope you make more.
The concept of going backwards after a certain amount of distance has been travelled in order to find something most players wouldn't find on their first play through is such a cool concept. I give this video 99/100!

Sonic.exe intense about too many theories and fandoms that are cringe Tails: ok I get that in picture also Sonic.exe: man I hope sega get me back out of the internet hell hole
Fun fact, the real pirated copy shows a sonic with a distorted face on it with creepy music, you can also get it by changing certain stuff in the sound test
Kids, there's nothing more cool then getting a game from someone you like. But if someone tries to give you a game that makes you feel uncomfortable... T H A T ' S N O G O O D
It seemed like something you take seriously until the last few text showed up. And what made this even worse is that they didn't decide to turn this into an VHS series pretty leaving us on an cliffhanger.
This is an earlier version of the anti-piracy screen. The finished version has Sonic talking instead but no full-body. Sega, you should had kept full-body classes sonic holding Dr Eggman's pirated copy.
HEY THIS IS FANTASTIC. Actually reminds a lot of my own so one fellow trying to make sonic truly scary to another you have my ultimate respect. ...say uh- since we have the same-ish ideas- why don’t we work together on something if we can?
German five h. The reason games have anti-piracy measures is because loser jerks would rather steal them then be honest and buy a legit copy of the game so developers have made anti-piracy measures to try and protect the games they work so hard on to make. Take a moment and put yourself in their shoes you just made a great game got all approved and shipped out to your fans play only to find out that some jerks stole your hard work wouldn't you be mad and want to find ways to protect it because it's not just coming up with the games idea all the games we enjoy have to go through a process of being made and it takes a long time they're just trying to protect what they rightfully work hard on and for all you guys who like the pirate things out there shame on you and for all you people who say oh it's just a game it doesn't hurt anybody it does different developers not just in the gaming industry work hard to make the things and no one has a right to take what they rightfully worked hard on away from them most of them spend thousands of dollars developing things doesn't matter what industry it is for our enjoyment but instead of being honest a lot of people like to steal things. Here's something for everyone to think about if they're thinking of pirating anything before you do ask yourself this question how would it make me feel if I had my stuff stolen from me?
Aside from the brief grammatical error, this is pretty authentic! I'd love to have that Sonic sprite! I'd love to try and convert it into Master System and Game Gear versions!
The actual version says: "Acquire to get the obtain a official regal Sonic THE HEDGEHOG video came cart ridge adaptor game to playing an real, authentic the copy the game."
Man, I wish that youtubers that make fake anti piracy screens would clarify that in the titles. Its kinda annoying not knowing if its a creepypasta or not beforehand
Cringy rat I agree with you however in my opinion I think the people who create these fake anti-piracy measure screens should submit them to Sega and see what they think about them I think they might actually like some of them. Because some of them are pretty cool and well made.
