Sonic R has been remade in roblox and it's pretty accurate so maybe try it out. (Sonic Recharged) why the fuck it's not just Sonic R I have no idea. Also Super Sonic is locked behind the totally not free private servers.

I literally just discovered your channel today with your previous mainline game video and now I get rewarded with this video

[@Zagareus]

I don't really consider Shadow The Hedgehog a spinoff. It's got all the main gameplay quirks of a Sonic game, it's a direct sequel to Sonic Heroes, you collect rings and go through loopty-loops. it's a full on Sonic game just with Shadow as the protagonist.

[@DaniCrack758]

it’s sonic the main character? no, then it’s a spin-off

[@MrPresttoSauce]

@@DaniCrack758 new super luigi U is a spin off then?

[@DaniCrack758]

@@MrPresttoSauce it’s an expansion, it’s luigi’s mansion a main line game? it’s yoshis island a main line game?

[@MrPresttoSauce]

@@DaniCrack758 Sonic Heroes and Shadow 05 share the same engine and playstyle. just like NSMBU and Luigi U. they are similar in that aspect where you don't play as the actual protagonist of the series, but as a side character and still having the same gameplay style from the previous game. can they truly be spin offs if they still use the same engine and gameplay style?

[@DaniCrack758]

@@MrPresttoSauce persona and shin megami tensei are also similar and part of the same franchise but one of them it’s obviously a spin-off. the same way mario land and wario land are similar but wario it’s a spin-off of mario. i’m pretty sure there’s a just dance game that uses the same engine as a rayman origins, does that makes just dance a mainline rayman game?

[@KOTSOSMC2002]

Sigh. Shadow the Hedgehog is not a spin-off. Direct sequel to Heroes that advances the story, console game of (for the time) AAA standards, one of Sonic Team's largest marketing campaigns, gameplay of a mainline title, 3D platformer, there is literally no reason whatsoever to say it's not mainline. Shadow being the protagonist ≠ not mainline. And I can't believe this even has to be explained, Sonic 4 is mainline as well. It's LITERALLY a numerical release, it says it right there on the title. Reception doesn't change reality, because people hate it doesn't mean it's suddenly not mainline. Development doesn't change reality, because it was developed as a mobile spin-off named Sonic Portable doesn't mean that's what happened, what happened is that late in development the project shifted, turned into Sonic 4 and became mainline.

[@LuxeCrux]

When I say the "spinoffs" I'm talking about things that were used to hold over fans until the next big game comes out. I don't see people going to the aid of Knuckles chaotix when at the time it had similar gameplay as the classic series down to the McGuffin collecting except you're just tethered to someone. Sonic 4 may be numbered, but at this point it's been retconned to the point of obscurity. You got Metal Sonic getting revived on little planet AFTER his defeat in CD while they used the modern designs for every character. Despite the fact that he ALSO returns in Sonic Mania with everyone using their classic designs. With it being confirmed by Izuka himself that Mania takes place after S3&K with superstars happening right after and superstars is confirmed to be RIGHT BEFORE Sonic adventure, AND THEN you have him contained in a tube in Eggman's base in SA1 with short and stubby dreamcast Sonic. So how did he end up on little planet again to be revived by Eggman? How did we go from classic sonic, to modern sonic, and BACK to classic sonic designs? Forgive me if I can't take Sonic 4 seriously. Besides I'm covering all the games anyway I've gone through almost every console game. It's all there dawg. These will all be in a big compilation one day anyway so everyone can be happy lol.

[@KOTSOSMC2002]

@@LuxeCrux I've been TLDRed a lot lately, I request a fair read if you may, this isn't a hate comment. Knuckles' Chaotix does not have similar gameplay to the Classics and came out for an optional add-on of another system (the 32X for the Genesis). The story of nature vs machine that enhanced the Classic games is present but the Sonic storyline (of the cast of characters as a whole) doesn't go forward in the same way it does in S1, CD, S2, S3&K, Mania and Superstars. Knuckles' Chaotix is more akin to the pacing and the story tie-in approach of the Rush duology and the Advance trilogy, it is here to introduce a few characters and some lore, be completely isolated and call it a day. Returning to the add-on, 32X is technically a hardware accessory, not much different to the Kinect or the PS Eye, Knuckles' Chaotix is as much mainline as Sonic Free Riders, that being not at all. So the whole Knuckles' Chaotix argument doesn't work. Sonic 4 has not been retconned, that is just nonsense. I won't linger on this too much since I find it incredibly silly, I'll just drop the fact that it's been referenced twice in the officially canon IDW comics set after Sonic Forces and there is a whole storyline in IDW taking place in White Park Zone from Sonic 4 Episode II. You not liking a game or it not getting continuously acknowledged doesn't render it retconned. And my point was never that you didn't cover them all, it's cool that you did. My point was that both Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic 4 are mainline because that's simply the reality of the situation. Your reply felt a bit passive-agggesive and I recognize mine might have as well. My intention isn't to fight, especially since I found the video a fun watch, it's to properly shine some light into matters. Calling them spin-offs is misinformation, cause they aren't.

[@Akira__Power]

The man is back For more PAIN And enjoyable content 👌

[@numbug1234]

I really don't blame you for emulating Chaotix even outside of the price, a fault in the hardware means that every single copy will eventually die just from use, making them very rare (and making the mere act of playing them a potential danger to said value)

[@LuxeCrux]

I didn't know that! It's definitely a concern especially after what happened with Shuffle. I'm just glad that the rest of the games I have to cover are mostly guaranteed to work!

[@braydenhorsley-zo6lo]

The moment ive heard you talk about the library in shadow the hedgehog I was like "oh no. Did you actually do it?"

[@virtualashez]

Honestly, Shadow 05 is my favourite Sonic game.

[@mikeclark7026]

Serious question. Why have people started to call it Shadow 05? I’ve never seen this till the last couple years, and it makes NO sense. Sonic the Hedgehog (Xbox 360/PS3) being called Sonic 06 makes sense because there are no less than FOUR Sonic games that just have the Title “Sonic the Hedgehog” So it’s a way to separate Sonic the Hedgehog (Megadrive) Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis) Sonic the Hedgehog (PS3/Xbox360) and Sonic the Hedgehog (GBA). Shadow the Hedgehog (PS2/Xbox/GCN) needs no such clarification

[@virtualashez]

@@mikeclark7026 To separate it from the character Shadow.

[@mikeclark7026]

@@virtualashez I can’t imagine that is ever an actual issue, but fair enough, at least it’s a reason. I preferred when it was called ShtH or ShTH if anyone ever wanted to separate it from the character. But again, it’s still weird, how often do context clues not let someone know you are talking about a fictional character or a form of media. I never see anyone call it Sonic 91, and to be fair, it would at least make sense if they did, since there is an 8 bit and 16 bit version of it,but I’ve also never been confused when someone says Sonic the Hedgehog if they mean the series, the character, or (one of) the games, as the rest of their statement should let you know which is which.

[@zainaaeschliman5245]

Although a couple of these are considered mainline, i was reading through comments and I get why you included them here. Hardware limitations suck and it ain't cheap to circumvent either. Plus it's very hard to tell that those games I'm thinking about are cannon because they're mentioned off handedly in the cannon that specific events happened so i don't blame ya either. You gotta LOOK for that to find it. Great video though, gotta watch some more of ya stuff and definitely gained a sub.

[@JuniBowman]

I have to assume that the reason that you get no reward for getting all 326 endings in shadow the hedgehog was because they knew it was a massive task and didn’t want to encourage anyone to subject themselves to it so they decided to not give it a reward
