Did Sonic Mania RUIN Sonic 3 and Knuckles!

Sonic 3 and Knuckles is considered one of the best, but when Sonic Mania released did it affect how Sonic 3 and Knuckles is perceived? Let's talk about it.

[@solo_warr10r]

Personally i think Sonic 3 Angel Island Revisited is the definitive way to play Sonic 3&k

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

yeah but most people won't go out of their way to get it. You know?

[@solo_warr10r]

@@Leader-of-the-Saint_John Yeah and it's more convenient to get a classic game pack (Sonic Origins) and mod it rather than getting a standalone upgrader for 1 game

[@MarzzTD]

Dude, how does this guy have under 100 subscribers?! His videos are really good!

[@SaintofTime]

Sharing the video will help the boss grow his subscribers! 😁

[@juandt1234]

17:04 fun fact: in the 11/03/93 prototype, sonic actually had a dropdash

[@trynottodie5352]

great video, especially loved the editing - keep it up!

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

We will stay tuned for more videos.

[@cheeseboi7553]

The insta-shield is my go to ability, but with the drop dash now? Top tier. I can't have the insta-shield without the drop dash and vice-versa, they compliment each other very well for me and i love them to death

[@juandt1234]

4:24 i think it’s because of the collision with the death egg that caused the island to fall to the water

[@lucafan5003]

When i saw this for the first time, I thought I saw a video with thousands of views, and I was surprised when I saw that there were 200 views. Btw call me weird all you want, but I don’t like mania as much as all games in the origins collection :P

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

It’s not weird the Saint of Time. Doesn’t like Mania as much either. I ended up really loving the game for its level design and consistency. I made a review about it but it’s not as good as this one. Overall though the classic games are great!

0:55 - Don't go turning Ronald McDonald into Michael Jackson; that's just disrespectful toward Ranald _and_ MJ...

[@Thesonicsquad733]

True

17:53 - What item is the star ball moniter?

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

It used to be an extra life in the original version. In origins it became a coin. For the new coin system

[@jordanelliott9050]

Imo Sonic 3K and Mania are both S tier games, I find myself returning to both of those games at least once a year and obviously Sandopolis is the weakest zone in Sonic 3K but I still really enjoy it, it doesn’t really take away from the whole experience. Sky sanctuary is more of a Boss rush zone and flying battery, mushroom hill and lava reef are fantastic zones. Sonic 3 might be slightly better than Knuckles but the gap isn’t that far. Also do yourself a favor and play Sonic 3AIR, or mod Origins because those Jun Senue Rearranged songs don’t hit the same

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

I know about 3 air and modding, but when reviewing the game I wanted to focus on what the casual audience could get. Most people won't go out of their way to do that so I wanted to look at just the base origins. Thanks for watching!

[@jordanelliott9050]

@@Leader-of-the-Saint_John oh okay, yeah sucks that most people don’t have access to to air or just don’t know about the mobile port

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

@@jordanelliott9050 3 & K never got a mobile port though.

[@damin9913]

We only need 1 sonic 3&knuckles and that is only for the sega genesis not for other consoles

[@Zidee777]

really good video👍

[@Leader-of-the-Saint_John]

Thank you!

[@VegarotFusion]

Mecha Sonic being Knuckles final boss is perfect. Because he's the reason Knuckles believes Sonic is the villain.

[@EWOODJ]

Aside from the Doctor straight up telling Knuckles Sonic is the villan...

[@tjlnintendo]

But that makes no sense. knuckles’s play through takes place after the events of Sonic 3…. We also literally see Sonic saving Knuckles after the final fight where Sonic is on his plane and Knuckles gives him the thumbs up as he takes the Master Emerald back.

[@Snaproductions]

@@tjlnintendovegarot's theory might be kinda sensemaking since knuckles canonically can't see well

did daytime ruin the night?

Mania makes 3K better in some ways and worse in others
