It's late so I will have to answer the rest another time but my earliest Sonic memories were my brother getting Sonic 1 in late 1991 and having...
My brother always called it "cheat mode". I can only conclude he got it from a magazine but given he's 11 years older than me I wasn't allowed...
I personally think you'd get the best result if you had the final's city background and the sparkling stuff in chunks, similar to Casino Night's...
With Scrap Brain Zone Act 3 missing from this proto, and the Sonic Jam quote Naka gave ("Instead of going straight to the boss in the end, you get...
Super-realistic drowning timers... was this intended as FU to the Mario crowd? Doesn't explain why fireballs also work underwater in Sonic-land...
Definitely, this explains the really shonky placement of lampposts right before bosses throughout Sonic 1 - in fact, they're nearly all right...
Even as late as 1991, platform games were still rock hard as standard. I suspect that playthroughs showed that: - 50/100 ring 1-ups meant you...
Absolutely astonishing find. Well done to all concerned. Still watching the video. I knew this otherwise shitty week would have to provide some gold.

Sonic 1 and 2 on Mega Drive really showed what the hardware could do when most games were still doing Mega Drive Twang. Compare Sonic 1's...
It took me longer to get S3&K in cart form than S1 and S2 so my first experiences were actually a S3 Collection PC demo and then emulation....
PAL version. PAL VERSION. PAL FUUUUUUUU!!!!!!! Now I've played it on emulators since my youth... I don't know how we coped with the damn thing in...
I don't know if it was the puzzle element, or the fact there's just too much going on at once, or if I just totally suck, but I just didn't enjoy...
Wood Zone feels very 8-bit and like it would have been at home there instead of the Mega Drive. The artwork was bland, the background was clearly...
I loved Generations right up until Egg Dragoon then I gave up...
Once I grew up past the age of 7 and could get past Chemical Plant Act 2 I never really had any issues with Sonic 2 until Metropolis. Then oh...
I'm going to try that tonight now. See if it helps or if I really am that bad at the pseudo-3D. I don't know if my depth perception problems...
