Was thinking during your “collections” talk that an Advance collection would be amazing, and then you actually mentioned it. Battle technically exists within that series, so it would make a lot of sense if it was included there instead of just in a “weird spinoff” set, would personally throw Pinball Party in there alone. Actually, the Advance Series is also heavily tied to the Adventure Series, so an Advance/Adventure collection with a Definitive version of the Chao Garden (both Adventures sharing a set of 6 Chao Rooms, plus an upgraded Tiny Chao Garden with all the minigames and Jewel Eggs available, accessed by the Chao Machine, plus the Hero Chao obtainable via Emblems and wireless multiplayer) would be something I would easily spend $100 on.

Good to finally see an accesible sonic port. I mainly come from the classic doom community, where (until a few years ago) playing the official ports is literally worse than using an emulator like dosbox. (missing features, broken audio etc) Community ports will always give you more customization/modding ability, but to see id releasing a new port (made by a community member) and to have it be the best way to access the classic games (even if multiplayer/modding is lacking) is incredible. The community ports are still best for freedom but for a casual player the choices, customization and potentially dated graphics will be a turn off which is why modern ports that are accessible are so important. Hopefully, origins will help bring new people into the classic sonic games just like the doom anniversary port.

Sonic 3 has been available on Steam this entire time. It was never taken down from there, so I don't understand why people are acting like it's not already easily accessible.

[@thatoneguy4452]

I've thought about a Sonic Advance collection too. I'd include Sonic Battle as it ties into Advance 3 and Pinball Party as it's the only other GBA game left (Sonic Genesis doesn't count). Additionally, I'd include Sonic Pocket Adventure as a bonus game as it's basically Sonic Advance 0. They could add extras like Cream in Advance 1 and a separate Tiny Chao Garden with additional features.

[@axelkusanagi4139]

What about adding the sonic rush games too? Idk how it would work a DS game, but it could work with a TATE mode where you spin your monitor veryically, or maybe they just change the way the screens are rendered.

[@thatoneguy4452]

if they ever do it they should make it so that you get all 7 emeralds for all 3 games when you collect it in 1, since getting the emeralds on sonic adv 2 is stupid hard and flat out nigh impossible on advance 3

Besides the pricing and Denuvo bs, Origins does look like a worthwhile compilation and I definitely have more faith in this than Ultimate since Stealth and Whitehead are confirmed to be working on it. Especially excited for Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

[@EvilPikachu]

They could always use the music from the PC version of S3K. I remember it having a different version of Ice Cap Zone, for a start. It wasn't bad, either. It went for a more bouncy fun snowball fight kind of feel instead of the desolate frozen wastes theme of the one we all know.

[@coqito583]

As it turns out, those were the original themes, before MJ stepped in as proven by the Prototype found back in 2019 and they actually sound pretty good coming from a Genesis, so officially finished renditions of those songs wouldn't be a bad idea, even if they're just in the sound test or as a toggle in-game (I really doubt they'd rerelease S3K without the Jackson songs, if they were willing to, we would have had way more rereleases of it with the early music by this point)

[@pvzmariosonica8fan]

@@coqito583 Plus, Jessica U. Ingmann has a mod for vanilla S3K that replaces the Jackson music with the PC music

Good ending is we can toggle between both OSTs

[@k-leb4671]

@@coqito583 I thought people were still debating whether they were the first tracks. One argument I remember is that the only reason the prototype had different music is because SEGA or someone in development weren't sure whether Michael Jackson's music would be able to be used, so new tracks were quickly made up before they finally settled on using MJ's music for the release.

[@RealAGuy]

Always love it when cybershell nitpicks extremely small details. Anyway I’m definitely buying origins since it looks like the collection of my dreams.

[@shonenbois]

Honestly this was a pretty fair reaction video on Origins considering the discourse around it rn. I appreciate how you gave your positives and also balanced it out with your nitpicks. Personally I’m really excited for this collection and can’t wait to see how it turns out👍🏿

[@fortheloveofgodlaugh2981]

I'm very happy we have these ports since the main appeal for these collections is general audiences and older folks who played Sonic ages ago. As a huge fan of Sonic, I've been playing remasters and remakes left and right, and unfortunately this collection serves little purpose to me besides just being the "official" option, but honestly the works of the likes of Sonic 1 Forever and Sonic 3 AIR are better in nearly every way Origins could be

"... because all of the games in the remaster are fancy and have widescreen options, it would have felt weird to just slap a couple of roms..." man cybershell's really making a habit out of making sonic-related quotes that age like milk, huh.

[@thatguybwarch]

Really love the even-handed and overall positive thoughts. I was thinking of making a vid myself mildly criticizing the fandom drama but this just, does it and does it in a nice and positive way. This collection is damn cool and worth picking up. There's stuff to nitpick and gripe about (DAT CHART) but the work that is put in here on the dev side is magical and nice. It's worth some kind of asking price. Kinda like the dig at Mario All-Stars on Wii. We're lightyears ahead of that in terms of effort taken to polish up the old games.

[@LeopoldLitchenstein]

Yeah I prefer these more positive videos that actually know their shit about what this entails (like these being the mobile versions and finally giving 3K the same treatment and not seeing them selling mobile games as a bad thing since fans have literally been begging for this for years) rather than stuff slamming it strictly for the price/amount of games, not being the older collections, and focusing on the fact that you can get these versions elsewhere for less, whether it be dealing with gaming on your phone or getting Forever/Absolute/A.I.R.

[@taputrainer8463]

I’m a little confused as to how Amy still isn’t a playable character since she was highly requested for Sonic Mania and the people making the collection has experience with modding so it’s not that unlikely to think that they could’ve put Amy in. I also find it really strange that Mighty and Ray were just made for Mania Plus but aren’t in this game so far. I really like the idea of a ton of playable characters so it would’ve been cool to have the chaotix playable outside of Knuckles Chaotix since they were a ton of fun to play as in Sonic 2 heroes. I think this could be an even better collection than the ones before if it could have all these characters but origins still looks great for everything it currently has

[@BoyleVoices]

I agree! I think Metal & Amy are possible and they’re just hiding it for now. I’m personally hoping for Mighty and Ray with ‘Encore Mode’ available for each of the 4 games. Would add insane amount of replay value!

[@the757general2]

It's because those characters would need to be created from scratch while this is a souped up remaster. Mania was a completely new game.
