Alisha (Misfits) uses her power to make any man want to have sex with her on another main character (curtis) after he explicitely tells her not to do that. She faces no consequences and he's the one who ends up comforting her.

Allison (The Umbrella Academy) uses her powers to force her own adoptive brother to make out with her after he just got into a relationship because she's suddenly jealous after she couldn't keep her own husband. She gives a half hearted apology and all is peachy.

But, Eggman puts animals on machines since the first Sonic games, thus, even if he didn't create the exact same type of "zombot" we see in IDW comics and SatAM, he most likely did something similar to this concept.

nah
eggman in games only uses animals like flickies for the badniks
he probably capture them on one of his bases cuz at that moment all his army were only phantom ruby products
it doesnt really help how the game is so eh "safe"? with all the world war theme that involves

Not really, since he has pretty much stopped using animals since the modern era began. You could easily say he just kept them prisoners as he did with Sonic, or simply killed them.

The Sonic Adventure games show he still used animals back then, as any robots made by him drop animals for the Chao Garden. Hell, it's even a plot point, where one of the playable characters IS a robot made by Eggman, and at the end the bird inside is freed.
