Sonic Generations 3DS - Modern Emerald Coast

[@BrokenAce1295]

The 3ds version could have included some levels from the Game Gear games and had that represent Classic Era, Advance games represent the GBA era, and DS era which the game already has plus a stage from Sonic Rush Adventure. But nonetheless this is still a decent sonic game!

[@chrisk.3976]

I think it suffered more because the console version was such a great nostalgia trip with great designs and levels, it couldn’t meet the same expectations with the limitations of the 3ds. Great suggestions though.

[@MustacheDLuffy]

None of those stages are as iconic tho

[@MustacheDLuffy]

@@chrisk.3976 A lot of the 3DS stages are secondary stages that would’ve made it into generations otherwise. This game is more a Sonic Rush/Colors sequel than Sonic Generations

[@garsrandom4358]

you know, Only 7 main zones, is a thing a lot of the advance/rush games do (with 2 exeptions only being Advance 1 and colors DS) so that you can get only one emerald per zone (yeah i know it's a trashy sytem)

[@jamstarr]

be thankful we got more adventure levels than the console one though, nobody gaf about replaying game gear or advance levels

[@buntado6]

Loved how you finished just by the time the song ended.

[@yellowmello1223]

Actually, there was still more to the song there, especially a very squeaky guitar at the 1:51 mark.

[@YoursTruly-RWBY]

@@yellowmello1223 that part of the guitar is so good i love it

[@lunatunny7594]

I love how you can see everything ahead of you. Makes playing really convenient.

"near the end" Sonic: Take this! Me: ...yea... take that whale!

[@Thatnintendohedgehog]

the comment section really is stupid. handheld? rush and advanced were 2d? because its a huge problem that modern went 2d right? 6months had this game's development and frankly they did GOOD

[@Essu_]

if they wanted to focus on the rush/advance style gameplay for the handheld version, why not include stages from the handheld games? This is a waste of potential, making 2 minute long bastardized versions of levels that barely resemble their console counterparts. We have an entire pantheon of handheld Sonic games with unique stages that most people have never seen before, and the 3DS version of Generations was the perfect chance to expose people to that.

[@yellowmello1223]

@@Essu_ They have Water Palace from Rush.

[@swedenplatformge]

@@yellowmello1223 That's just 1 zone though in the entire game

[@Tiny_Tango]

They should had been given longer to make the game

[@OmegaChase1002]

Sonic fans love finding petty things to complain about. Most of the games they say are "terrible" are really just "okay" at worst.

[@Sharff514]

That whale was really fucking tired of sonics bullshit. Straight up flew out of the water and start doing combo bites 😭

[@mattdoesanimations]

why did this actually get me laughing-

[@Jiffszz]

Generations 3DS while ok would've been better if they went with handheld sonic levels instead of console imo like advance era and rush era I know they had one rush level but I would've picked deadline tbh

[@mattkugelman4369]

JayTC well I mean colors also counts it was also on the old ds when it was released

[@uranus007]

Tropical Resort Act 1 was based off the DS version. Plus I like the stage selection

[@Jiffszz]

@@uranus007 Thats fair but speaking of Sonic Colors, Colors was the last game at the time of Generations release, so its the last level... I personally wouldn't have picked the first stage of Colors as a final level, I would've gone with Asteroid Coaster instead.

[@OmegaChase1002]

What about the handheld version of that Sonic Colors stage that was in the game?

[@Helicopter7]

@@Jiffszz In my opinion sweet mountain was the best stage in Colors DS and should’ve been the last stage

[@jacopociregia9533]

Stil better than any other level from Sonic Forces

[@ThomastheGOAT1975]

This level is my favourite, and the music absolutely fucking slapped, and is really nostalgic. Generations 3DS is wierdly my personal favourite as it was the first sonic game I ever played, correction, it was the first video game I ever played, and I'm really nostalgic for it.

[@aquaticlibrary]

Nice to see a new generation of young people get into Sonic

[@ThomastheGOAT1975]

​@@aquaticlibraryOh I'm not new to the game, I played it on my 3DS back in 2012.

[@jeggleston04]

Ive played this level so many times, and i never noticed that the whale hits the bottom of that land bridge... looks pretty painful.

[@RascalTheChao]

I wouldn't even be able to play this level well haha. I would be too distracted by how the music's so nostalgic and that tiny edit to it that makes it sound less upbeat really hits that home.

[@pedrogomezid]

It's a little more violent in the Classic Version, it smashes through the bridge repeatedly while chasing you and chomping at you...i guess the whales had to to rehab and came out for Seaside Hill to help you instead.

[@tytanium654]

Generations on 3DS was my first Sonic game. I played this game to death.

[@dumbsville]

Press a to jump to panels 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Be careful, though, you'll fall if you're not quick enough.

[@Paraxade0]

Which I know isn't terribly important for a handheld game but the low res really shows on pictures and videos like this.

[@Darknes_Cyberblade]

am I the only one who likes the boost strip in the 3ds version?

[@Ioshyriku903]

I wish this level was included in the PC and console versions

[@EuroMIX2]

Dimps were probably rushed to meet the release deadline. It was the same story with Unleashed Wii suffering because it wasn't finished. A "handheld"-based Generations could have been fun, but I image that many levels would lack notability compared to their console counterparts.

[@ProfessorBelz]

I kept waiting for him to lose boost and get hit by an unexpected enemy.

[@CrashFan03]

someone should try porting the levels from Generations 3DS into the PC version. I'm really curious as to how Havok and the Hedgehog Engine would treat these levels

[@ethancristea2881]

It's funny how the shadow of sonic from 1:46 - 1:51, stays the same shape the entire time, and the shape doesn't even look like sonic.

[@Dykler1]

First the GUN truck got all overboard with rockets saws and every kind of shit, and now the whale decides to jump out of the water for more than 10 meters with all of its rage! O.O lol xD Sonic Generation AKA Sonic and the pissed ofs

[@derovell]

Considering the upgrade the GUN truck got I was almost surprised that they didn't have the whale breathe fire or shoot lasers or something.

[@dumbsville]

Oh, okay. Thanks, I haven't played Adventure in a while.

[@sofiathefirst6981]

ok this is epic

[@KrazyScruffy9001]

I think the variety is better here than in the console version, since that version has like 4 city levels and 3 Green Hills, but yeah they cut corners everywhere in this game. Still fun but I want my Advance levels!

[@alixtennyson2007]

Well I mean, this one has less levels duh

[@pedrogomezid]

Yup, platformed, jumped, quickstepped, did QTE and ran through them thousands of times.

[@GamerBoy-cf6gu]

how was sega able to get that guitar in a very awesome rythim

[@Sunmellows]

As dull as Gens 3ds is, i absolutely fucking adore the remix of Windy and Ripply. One of my favorite songs in the entire franchise

[@ALocalClown]

The find the first levels in Sonic games, while not filled with gimmicks found in later levels, tend to be packed with content. Naka's concept for the design of GHZ was that the player will be replaying this stage over and over, so make it as interesting as possible, multiple pathways, hidden bonuses, tons of enemies, the works. Look at this stage, just look at it. Hardly makes you hopeful for what's to come.

[@reversalmushroom]

Wow, there are barely any enemies or pits in this level.

[@pingcrimson6854]

reversalmushroom the water is a pit

[@MustacheDLuffy]

There are areas where you can drown but he played the level so well we didn’t see them

[@reversalmushroom]

@@MustacheDLuffy In the original Genesis games, they had higher paths but plenty of places to fall through to a lower route, but this barely has that.

[@MustacheDLuffy]

@@reversalmushroom you have to go to a lower route this guy stayed at a higher route for the whole stage.

[@1998Zerzavy]

It's like people are stupid these days... Since when the 2D Sonic gameplay have the purpose of replicated the 3D gameplay? IT STARTED OUT 2D, THAT'S EXACTLY HOW SONIC WAS DESIGNED.

[@AtticusGoff-sk6xj]

Sonic rush came out before unleashed and it was on the DS

[@NickyCrispy]

Holy shit, that whale was out for blood.

[@yourguysnow2783]

I love 3ds, nice childhood

[@DarkkirbyKRPG]

Well, the Modern Era has handheld stages from Sonic Rush and Sonic Colors DS (you know, the beginning and the end of the DS Sonic trilogy)

[@yasarmsn2187]

İs it just me or in the whale section sonic running like he did in sa1?

[@DarkkirbyKRPG]

The console version also has its shares of first levels (3, just like the 3DS version.) and I'm impressed Dimps managed to pull the 3DS version off with so little time Sega gave them (11 months). I find it to be a better game than the console version and it has better Classic Sonic physics, but I still enjoy the Robotic-Mario Sonic from the HD version a little bit.

[@SolarSocks]

So what happens if you don’t press the buttons at the Orca jump?

[@man0fperson]

That was exactly my point though, what are you trying to say? Also at the time of my posting that I wasn't aware of the amazing graphics Lost World has.

[@man0fperson]

this is 2013, that was following the tradition of sonic advance 1 2 and 3

[@Soinc.]

Emerald Coast was the most odd pick for the handheld version I'd say that cause how the fact Sonic can now boost in this level,also the fact this is on Advance/Rush Gameplay.

[@camo6465]

I’d say Radical Highway was the most odd pick. Sonic was never IN Radical Highway, that was Shadow’s level!

[@Soinc.]

@@camo6465 Well both Emerald Coast and Radical Highway were the most odd picks for the handheld version at least.

[@vamosahora3533]

This is my favorite level on Sonic Generations 3ds

[@incredibil45]

at least the 3ds generations has the damn jump panels

[@DarkkirbyKRPG]

Yeah, me too. But I guess SA1 and 2 are more memorable stages than any stage from the Sonic Advance Trilogy, plus they would have the problem of choosing which game from the trilogy to leave out, since they only had time to develop 7 stages.

[@pedrogomezid]

1.- You couldn't in most places. 2.- Doing that means you won't get the best possible time or shortcuts.

[@sonicclub1]

best stage in the game

[@username0131]

It's just console generations but only the 2D segments

[@DeltaSpaceDweeb]

tails?!? (tails plane crashes)what am I going to do with you?

[@DeltaSpaceDweeb]

dont sweat it knuckl--WHAT DO YOU MEAN DONT SWEAT IT?!

[@Danthehed2031]

In my opinion it was just a bit more than decent, or at least it is for something made in just 8 months.

[@fokushilive]

why didn’t the 360/PS3/PC version have emerald coast

[@OcamaruBRES]

In my opinion think Angel Island and Secret Base(Sonic advance) Hot Crater and Sky Canyon(Sonic Advance 2) Cyber Track and Chaos Angel(Sonic Advance 3)

[@derovell]

Holy shit, those are exactly the stages I was thinking of! What about the boss battles? I vote for Emerl and (Super) G-Mel for Advance era and Blaze and Egg Nega Wisp for Rush era!

[@sonictheman5194]

3ds for the win

[@RascalTheChao]

That's what the Classic levels are for.

[@LeafRazorStorm]

0:26 "Jump on Panel Number 1. It will--" SHUT UP TIKAL!!

[@DeshlaHutmaa]

I think the 3ds version was a missed opportunity. instead of making it like the console version, they should have made classic control like the game gear games and modern like the rush titles and used hand held stages instead of console. like the game gear era the gba era and the ds era. rush games, advance 1-3 and colors ds, plus the game gear games.

[@Cheatster9000x]

Below. They have purpose. To look good

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

Damn, Sonic made the whale look like a jackass at the end. XD

[@co_star]

Y’know... If Sonic Lost World (3DS) can be a game that has the camera behind Sonic then Generations (3DS) should’ve done that too.

[@Sonic-hq9zz]

Why?

[@ChiefMedicPururu]

Generations 3DS didn't have the same budget.

[@SuperSonic096]

That's exactly what I was thinking! And there could be... Secret Base Music Plant Chaos Angel Dead Line Haunted Ship Tropical Resort

[@zoeyfleurir3111]

Water Palace and This -- Seaside Hill Zone Radical Highway -- Speed Highway

[@VINCEJisSONiCtheMC]

Have you played the Adabat stage on there? See how far just boosting gets you there.

[@leeeroyjenkins555]

and advacne series levels like ice mountain(sonic advance) hot crater(sonic advacne 2) and chaos angle(sonic advance 3)

[@man0fperson]

s' kinda hard to get a 3D stage onto a 3ds, because 3ds games can't have as much graphics/quality as PC games. probably they couldn't make a fully 3d game, and anyway the more recent ones were 2d.

[@moonsets-on_you]

[@challengerjakku1943]

And lost world sucked on the 3ds so

[@noellewastaken]

Jakkuthe KoreanJesus Sonic Generations is older than Lost Word Your argument is invalid

[@DeshlaHutmaa]

Yeah, that was a good idea. I thought they should've based the whole version of the game on that

[@lostchild]

thank you.

[@hughmartinez7438]

Its not boost to win, there are actually some sections in the gamr that you have to do platforming

[@dragnalus787]

this guy beat my record on this level by about 7 seconds 1:40 was my time

[@b2j135]

are you guys going to do the rival and boss matches too? and maybe show-off the online a bit?

[@Red6095]

I'd like better Secret Base, Musical Plant and Route 99. And for DS the same, just adding Coral Cave or Pirates' Island.

[@sharinganmoon]

what about the music area from Sonic Advance 2? I was really hoping to see that

[@mattkugelman4369]

Honestly I feel like if sega had hope for the vita that this version of the game would fit the style of the portability

[@Jm-kc6gg]

Best level of the game

[@sonicclub1]

best stage if you ask me.

[@streled5361]

No shit! But remember to have seen many clips of Sonic Advance on a beach.

[@Danthehed2031]

Because the MODERN sonic handheld games were in 2D.

[@valkyriehero6271]

you know there just reusing the first and second half of emerald coast for modern or classic right

[@sakisiku367]

NO LIKE THIS jump on panel number 1, it wil take you to panels 2 and 3. jump as soon as you land on the panels or else you'll fall.
