Sega : **cancels Sonic Unleashed DS because of hardware limitations** Also Sega : **releases Sonic Unleashed on java phones**

[@5persondude]

We lost PC ports of Sonic 06 and Unleashed but Sega went out of their way to port Lost World 😭 we are *not* in the best timeline

[@kostaunboxing]

They decided to SCRAP THE UNLEASHD ON PSP, DS AND PC BUT MADE A JAVA PHONE PORT. BRO, THE JAVA PORT IS A SCUFFED VERSION OF DS

[@songohan5866]

Yep sega is strange sometimes

[@sonicmaiden2871]

At least you can play the java port on psp with one of the java emulators for psp out there. It's cancellation and also gens psp port cancellation really sucks though since they only released 2 games on psp + a genessis collection which only includes Sonic 1 and 2. Would've been cool to have more official psp games honestly. At least if you mod it you can emulate the game gear, java, genessis and gba games + play some homebrew Sonic games too which makes the Sonic game library on psp better.

[@Octo4533]

its not a port tho, its an alternate ver o the game

[@sonicmaiden2871]

@@Octo4533 true. The java version kinda feels like a mix between Sonic Advance and Sonic Rush to be honest. It's also really short. It only has 4 levels from what I remember. So yeah it is very different compared to the other versions of it. But to be honest, the psp version would've been an alternate version too with probably similar graphics to the Sonic Rivals games.

[@spongebobfan78]

Bruh, Unleashed mobile was made by an entirely different company who specialized with mobile phone games. Whenever someone mentions Gameloft making games outside mobile, people are surprised because it is not their forte.

As someone who loves the low-polyness of the DS, Unleashed on DS sounds so enticing to me

[@cepherinorodriguez8995]

The real reason why Sonic Unleashed was not ported to PC was not only because they only wanted to be on home consoles, but because the development of the Windows version would take a long time, even the release date that Sega wanted would arrive and this version would continue to be developed, so Microsoft decided not to make this version.

[@PilaCiu]

We saw Sonic Unleashed running on PC in a few pictures!

where?

[@regretchoices]

i heard sega lost the coding into the game so they couldn’t port it 😭

[@PilaCiu]

@@regretchoices I don't believe that's true

[@wend34]

It's not that simple💀. These pictures are from devs testing the game on something called devkit. Both x360 and ps3 have different architecture from a normal computer, this is to make harder to jailbreak and modify the console, also to make the game more optimized. The devkit kinda of emulate these console's softwares and i assure you these computers running the game are very powerful, to make it run on a PC you need to code the game from scratch(which takes time).

Fun Fact:Sonic Colors was originally the wii port for sonic generations but due to console weakness it was canceled and changed into a very differant game which is colors The next thing is just a theory I make it up Which I have a theory that sonic colors in concept was originally the third rush title This meybe explain why there was a ds port in the first place This is just a theory It's not far from truth that the colors ds was originally also the ds port for sonic generations That's another theory

[@user-hy4zq1xj9h]

Fun fact: Sonic 4 episode 2 was originally planned to have a Wii port but was scrapped due to hardware limitations.

[@Sean-D78]

It was due to the limited file size WiiWare could have on the Wii Shop Channel

[@sonicmaiden2871]

If they would've released it on disk I think it could've run well on Wii. It's not very impressive graphically and it doesn't have much content.

[@OhKayEl]

Not a fact, that game could have easily been on the Wii if the Android port is anything to go by.

[@sonicmaiden2871]

@@OhKayEl true

[@MRWATCH604]

Wanted to add a slight correction as to why the Sonic 06 Wii port wasn’t made. The port wasn’t finalised due to Sega just wanting to make a unique experience, rather the game was just too much for the Wii to handle so since 06 just couldn’t be made, Sega instead decided to split Sonic Team in half so a Wii game (Secret Rings) could be made. The engine used to make Secret Rings originally was utilised for a Wii port of 06. Also the project would have taken too long for the deadline so that’s another reason why the port wasn’t made. Feel free to add more information or correct me in the replies but this is what I got from a simple google search. Sorry if this a long comment just wanted to provide correct information about a cancelled port.

[@om58499]

Matt muscle said the same thing in his what happen sonic 06 video

[@awesomeocelot7475]

If Sonic 06 came to Wii I most likely would’ve played it as a kid and might’ve been a bit fond/nostalgic for it like I am with unleashed and black knight.

[@knowingjordankid]

Wait what SEGA wanted to give good Sonic games ports? The one thing that I think was going to be a weird port was Sonic 06. A lot of these games that people love I honestly think they don’t really need these Sonic ports. I can definitely see why people wanted an Unleashed port so badly and me too.

[@Profalcon1078]

Unleashed on psp, dude I would have unironically played that. Also the gens port to psp is also wild. Would play both honestly but still both games and their ports that we got are still good and have their respective fans.

[@sonicmaiden2871]

As a Sonic fan with a psp I'm sad that we only got 2 rivals games and one genessis collection honestly.

[@andersonsansonowski5644]

8:00 pov: you loved the sonic 3 original soundtrack so you used it as background music

[@mikeandjeffery3534]

Fact: the psp sonic generations port was gonna be the 3ds levels and yes it’s the exact same as the 3DS version

Videos like these I long for!

[@Pan-cackes]

2 videos the same week 👏👏👏

[@1DAR26]

6:24 It's very possible that we could see those exclusive zones from the 3DS remastered or remade for Sonic × Shadow Generations! It's a long shot, but I do recall the site saying bonus content as well. So some of those PC mods for other Sonic games may see the light of day officially.

[@1DAR26]

Combine that with the updated graphics and the Shadow portion of the game, and we may very well have a game better than its predecessor!

[@garyconstanza3120]

Honestly, we shouldn't expect Sonic Team to add much, if anything at all to the base game of Generations.

[@summitier22]

Gens is going to be base version with the casino DLC, most likely the only changes will be new button layouts to support joycons, dualsense and xbsx controller and improved performance on some laggy parts in levels like crisis city it's more of a side dish served along Shadow Generations, sadly

[@sonicmaiden2871]

I don't think we'll get bonus content inside the og generations part of the game sadly outside of the pinball DLC level, some new music from the newer games included and maybe some extra missions and cosmetics but I hope that the Shadow part of the game will have a decent amount of content.

[@Sonic24prime]

Sonic generations,Wii was too big to fit on the console so it turned into sonic colors and then for the DS it turned into sonic colors for the DS and for the PSP version it turned into the 3DS version and sonic free riders gonna be on the Wii

[@matiosmenta]

The Wii version of Gens was cancelled very early in the development, since the Hedgehog Engine wasn't compadible with the console. But since a lot of Sonic fans only onwed a Wii at the time, Iizuka decided to split Sonic Team in two, so one half would develop Gens and the other one a original Wii exclusive game for those fans... and then Sonic Colors was born. :)

[@NoramiYuuki]

gee.. I already knew about unleashed PC being scrapped but learning about the reason for it actually makes me even more upset.. thanks for the video though, that was a pretty fun watch

[@SFproductions1]

ayy appreciate it!

[@Vantoxify]

I think Sonic Colors on Wii existing is a result of Generations not being able to be ported to the Wii so some of the SonicTeam devs worked on Colors while the others worked on Generations

[@andersonsansonowski5644]

8:11 I think they got the ``canceled`` sonic 3 port and finished it for origins

[@CrashFan03]

nah, the one in origins is built off the mania version of the retro engine (on top of other new stuff that the 2014 pitch didn't use) and i believe was done from the ground up

[@AKablalik]

Apparently, that PSP prototype disk of Generations was actually damaged and 14mb of it’s contents was recovered, It’s possible that there was a lot more on the disk, and maybe even a playable demo build, but it’s all unrecoverable now.

[@sonicmaiden2871]

Since those recovered textures are similar to the ones in mushroom hill from the 3ds version I assume that it would've been a port of it like how the ps2 version of unleashed was a downgraded port of the Wii version. Honestly, I'd love to see a fan made homebrew port of it on psp.

[@JamesR624]

I now REALLY wanna know what Sonic 2: Escape from Ring Zone would have looked and sounded like.

[@victoralanhernandez6894]

Well thanks for the info

[@axelprino]

I remember that at some point it was confirmed that the Mega CD port of Sonic 2 was dropped so early on that the Genesis/MD version was still in its earlier stages of development, at that point the plan still was for Sonic CD to release late in 92 so there wasn't much need for other Sonic titles to show up for the add-on, but then Sonic CD ended up being delayed into 93. If you go back and look at that point in time it was fairly common for "deluxe" versions to be released on Sega CD a few months after the cartridge release, these CD versions were usually just the same game with a new soundtrack and some extras like a couple new levels taking advantage of the new hardware features, nothing too high effort. Also the first Sonic Riders was also ported to Xbox and PC, those two versions did make it to release.

[@mortemomnia]

The revisionist history that people *LOVED* Unleashed at launch is always wild to me. AT BEST people liked the day stages and even that was in question.

Does anyone have a direct source for “Escape To Ring Zone”? I’ve checked a couple of magazines that the Sonic Wiki Zone cited, and I didn’t find any specific mention of a Sonic 2 port to the Sega CD.

[@ConNinGame]

Fun Fact: Sonic Generations Wasn't Planned For The 3DS Until They Found Out That The 3DS Was Releasing, The PSVita Probably Didn't Have A Port Due To Poor Early Sales, Finally, YES, The Wii Version Of Sonic Generations Didn't Happen Due To Technical Limitations, So They Instead Made Sonic Colors.

"It would have been pointless to release slightly better, more expensive versions of the same Genesis games for the same console's CD add-on." Even though some of the games that were released for the Sega CD add-on were exactly that, such as Earthworm Jim, Mickey Mania, and Sega's own Ecco the Dolphin. Though at the same time there were also other licensed games released on Sega CD like Jurassic Park and Adventures of Batman & Robin that were different games altogether from the Genesis versions of those same titles.

[@Zallusions]

Sonic team didn't want to make a unique version for the wii. They thought the wii would be as powerful as the Xbox and ps3 because up till now, nintendo was chasing power as well. (The gamecube was actually the most powerful console of its generation, and when it failed, nintendo went in a different direction.) This ended up putting sonic team in a pinch when they found out the wii wasn't powerful enough to run 06 so they split the team in half. (This is also one of the big reasons other than rushed due dates, why 06 was a mess, anything that could go wrong, went wrong during its development cycle)
