Sonic Generations 3DS - Modern Water Palace

[@mikeanthony3300]

Its just not the same without Sonic yelling "YES! COOL! ALRIGHT!" during every second of the stage...

[@ekubo954]

Imagine if the modding scene for 3DS was just as explosive as Generations for PC. We could have gotten a Rush remaster mod or even a fan-made Rush 3 mod similarly to the Unleashed Project or STH06Generations

[@scottthescattergun3935]

The background looks like Windmill Isle. Finally corrected the grammar with this comment.

[@XTheNumberOfTheBeast]

Yes, that's actually windmill isle.

[@kyuta3568]

That's exactly what I was thinking! XD

[@THEAP1995]

It does!

[@scottthescattergun3935]

Omg guys holy crap the amount of +1 notifications i'm getting is crazy! Thanks a lot guys even though this comment is old.

[@SadikiStGeorgeangemon44]

why wasn't windmill isle a stage :(

[@sonicgen20]

kinda disappointing that this is the only handheld exclusive stage in the 3ds version. and instead of Sonic adventure1, 2, and sonic colors they should have used stages from Sonic Advance 1, 2, and Sonic Rush Adventure.

[@KaytchJam]

They should've added a Sonic 3 level. Hydrocity Zone would've been great.

[@DarkkirbyKRPG]

Even though I love this game, to this day I still think that they wasted their opportunity to truly make the modern era shine. They are forced to end it with Sonic Colors, as that was the latest game both handheld and console-wise. Fine by me, the modern era should have been set up by either one of the following options: a) Sonic Rush level - Sonic Colors level - Rival Blaze - Rush Adventure boss a) Sonic Rush level - Sonic Rush Adventure level - Rival Blaze - Colors DS boss Tropical Resort is just too fantastic for me to let go though.

[@SJtheMFZB]

Chiming in on having the GG levels represented, I already know I want Aqua Lake from STH 2 GG/SMS and Sunset Park from Triple Trouble. Can you imagine the official remixes for those? Cash Cash had better crack their knuckles. Oh, and Fang the Sniper for Classic era rival, obviously. Criminally underused character with a great design.

[@sonicgen20]

No, those are from consoles.

[@MakotoTsuguri]

I'm sure what he's getting at is that the 3DS version should have been representing "handheld" levels, and not "console" levels, since this is the handheld version, and Sonic has had plenty of adventures in handhelds as he did in consoles. I agree, as I was really hoping for Sky High Zone to be represented, as it carried a lovely gimmick that set it apart from other stages. Its just criminal that they only represent ONE Sonic Rush level from a handheld, when they had a plethora of handheld games to use for this version of Generations. Nine levels from 9 consoles games, ok. They have about equal for the handheld version in order: Sonic 1GG>Sonic 2GG>Triple Trouble>Advance>Advance 2>Advance 3>Rush>Rush Adventure>Colors. It could have worked imo.

[@BiggusWeeabus]

The closest we'll ever get to a 3DS Sonic Rush game

[@Sonic101hedgehog]

Modern Sonic doesn't really need invincibility because of his boost

[@kronillix2735]

except you can't boost into spikes

[@bulb9970]

They could instead give you a temporary infinite boost

[@johnathonturner2279]

@@bulb9970 They kinda did? If you full the boost to max in this and both Rush games, you can use the Boost indefinitely for a little bit.

[@benja-tp1sp]

Yeah there was also a monitor that maxed out your boost and gave you this effect. The icon was like a meteor.

[@UltraSTH]

@@benja-tp1sp in Rush 1 it was a star, in the second game, it was a comet

[@Fran_5]

Sega is like Valve, counting to 3 is too hard for them, I would really like a Sonic Rush 3 for the 3DS it would be pure awesomeness

[@Fran_5]

***** Tried once never again. xD

[@Angels.Disbelief]

LOL

[@NottJoeyOfficial]

FraN_ And the name could even be Sonic Rush 3D, it would be the third game, and go along with the naming theme of the 3DS. I want it.

[@personguy2262]

*Sonic 4 Episode 3* *& Knuckles*

[@Ai-fj1dc]

But it exists and it's called Colours DS

[@paperluigi6132]

If you time it just right, you can boost in midair at the loop at the beginning of the level and bounce fly off to the side. Then until your boost runs out, you can just run besides the stage. I've done this only 3 or 4 times

[@MoonSarito]

I wish they would bring the Generations 3DS stages to the remaster that will come on Switch and PS5. Even if they kept the same gameplay and camera as Sonic Rush, I would love it.

[@quillion3rdoption]

I wish Sega let Dimps either make a Wii version of Generations or make the 3DS version have 3D levels, since they did a really good job with Unleashed Wii's Day stages and they just let them make this rushed low-budget stuff instead of taking advantage of their talent. Also, this level isn't as fun as in Rush without the aerial tricks you can do.

[@lkprod3]

+WaxingName actually, there was a Generations port being made for the Wii at the time, but due to the system's limitations, it ended up becoming what we know today as Sonic Colors.

[@Aito4896]

+lkprod3 they actually stopped ot for graphical limitations

[@Mfenton10]

[@stupideditcentral5485]

@The 3rd Option Would you rather listen to YES YEAH COOL YES YES YEAH ALRIGHT COOL OK! every second of the stage instead of the actual music?

[@ianrennebohm8294]

With all of the updated music and physics, i think they should make a Sonic Rush remake (or release, idc)

[@Essu_]

Exactly why people thought this was Apotos when these screenshots were surfaced.

[@Boodendorf]

But Sonic got so many fucked up shit that it's funny to talk about it. Like dem physics.

[@anthonyegberts7759]

In Sonic Rush Water Palace was my absolute favorite stage i used to play it all the time, great memories,maybe i go play Sonic Rush again after Generations

[@wanderlustwarrior]

Imagine if the 3DS version of Generations had more of the handheld games: Game Gear Era: Green Hill (Sonic 1) Sleeping Egg (Sonic Chaos) Sunset Park (Sonic Triple Trouble) Rival Battle Fang the Sniper (Sonic Triple Trouble) Boss Big Arms (Sonic 3) GBA Era: Egg Rocket (Advance 1) Music Plant (Advance 2) Chaos Angel (Advance 3) Rival Battle Gemerl (Advance 3) Boss ... I want to say Emerl, but that would be too heartbreaking DS Era: Water Palace (Rush) Haunted Ship (Rush Adventure) Starlight Carnival (Colors) Rival Battle Blaze the Cat Boss Ghost Titan (Rush Adventure)

[@remagic00110]

man, if there was an emerl boss id actually cry

[@slimballs9650]

I would add Under Ground Zone from Sonic 2. And I'd replace Sleeping Egg, Music Plant, Chaos Angel, and Starlight Carnival with Aqua Planet, Ice Paradise, Cyber Track, and Aquarium Park, respectively. For the Rival Battles, I'd replace Fang with Metal Sonic; not only is he more iconic, but it helps that he's also in Triple Trouble. For the bosses, I'd put the Biolizard for the Advance era, since Adventure 2 Battle and Advance 1 came out on the exact same day, and I'd replace the Ghost Titan with the Egg Dragoon since Unleashed came out In between Rush Adventure and Colors, as well as the fact that Dimps co-developed the PS2 and Wii versions of Unleashed.

[@ABlob]

I found a bug in this level. If you jump at a certain angle from this loop 1:10 while boosting than you can walk behind the stage and the framerate drops to about 15 frames per second.

[@lw6627]

+Animaniac190 yes that glitch is easy to get, i still try to figure that out, to get behind the finish ring.. hopefully that can be used in a speedrun strat..

[@lw6627]

one day i get this shiaat

[@stormbreak7003]

A Blob I remember I did the glitch by accident and I finished the level in 1:34 since I boosted on the water in the back ground and was hilarious thing for me. I did the glitch like 5 times and it was by luck. I figured out that at you have to boost into the small window square to activate the glitch. Sometimes it works sometimes it's doesn't

[@BigBrotherChachi2]

watching these runs gives me the asmr chills

[@DisasterEnby]

in the original game, Water Palace zone was *IMPOSSIBLE* for me to complete

[@ferhog7705]

Yeah, it took me a while as well. It was my first Sonic water level after all.

[@DisasterEnby]

Ferhog same. This was the first 2D sonic game I ever played.

[@ferhog7705]

Shadow The cat Mine too, as well as my second Sonic game after Heroes. I never finished that game in the decade I've had it since I could never beat all those special stages. Actually, that also applies to Rush as well.

[@DisasterEnby]

Ferhog same. I played Heroes before rush, but I managed to complete all the special stages in Rush.

[@mikeanthony3300]

Not trying to be mean or anything but Boost + Tricks = Instant win

[@Grahckheuhl]

Had he said that he'd just have been marked as spam... at least this way it's somewhat amusing.

[@GnomeGod98]

I just realized, on the 3DS version, sonic doesn't wink, he kinda just tilts his head

[@Leekodot15]

I would love a Sonic Rush 3 with the trick attacks as well as the stomp, those feel like a bread and hecking BUTTER for Sonic! I love how the physics look in Generations 3DS, too, I want a rush style game with them!

[@slimballs9650]

Well there is Sonic Colors DS.

[@stevenr224]

Water slides, rolercoaster and jumping is just something Sonic Team has to focus on more.

[@alexc8726]

You just described Seaworld

[@ShadowyKatz]

I never realized that the stage is an exact replica of the original one.

[@flingi194]

the alternate universe where you could play sonic rush for 5 seconds without falling in a pit:

[@RyanBrown2K5]

One reason why Dimps chose the level system they did was to follow the Emerald formula they've been using since Advance 1: One Special Stage per Zone.

Sonic Unleashed Apotos!!! XD

[@IdoWolf]

Easily the best level in the 3DS version. It actually has...*gasp*...level design!

[@supreme-ss777]

That's mostly because it's a remastered version of a level from a 2005 DS game that's way better than most 2D-centered Sonic stuff today, like Forces.

[@BPhoenixProductions]

More like both are based on Greece and that's the only similarity. If you consider the levels themselves, you never encounter any hills, dirt paths, or streets in Water Palace, and you never run all over stone temples of any sort in Windmill Isle. The background of Water Palace is similar to Apotos, but that's as close as it gets.

[@sm3dwnftwofficialsaveukrai289]

YES! YEAH! COOL! ALRIGHT!

[@deatsbybre7162]

Why does the background look so much like Windmill Isle from Sonic Unleashed?

[@alejoguevaraf]

0:50 wow that`s not a myth, you can use invuncibility with modern sonic in this version; i never saw that PS:i was refering to pure game not modifying the game so you play modern sonic in classic stages

hey theres a glitch here.... hmm.. but i cant remember where it was... i think over by a loop or something...

[@BPhoenixProductions]

he means that it doesn't make sense with physics.

[@bunnypeon]

Sonic generations is a collection of favorite levels, they didn't pick Mushroom hills was picked because it was easy to make, it was picked because it was a memorable. Less content that other handheld games? Do you know how much time and space it takes to make the lengthy levels required for the speed sonic runs at? I for one am impressed with what they've done with the levels and this claim that they're 'repetitive' is not a common opinion, much less a fact.

[@benclarke981]

Anyone else agree that they should have remade all the levels of this game from the handheld games, since this is a handheld system, and changing levels from 3D to 2D is a step down

[@JohnMidas-_-]

Ben Clarke yup

[@dylanmaycry2211]

Instead of this, I really thought 3ds users were getting Kingdom Valley as a modern level, replacing Crisis city.... Thank god we threw 06 out the window and put Rush there.

[@TheLittleSpoonz]

Man i really wished they added the rank music,specially the for the S rank,without it is'nt as exiting waiting for your Rank like in the Playstation and Xbox versión of this game.

[@GamemasterDM]

The problem with Modern Water Palace is that Sonic could just boost over the water, killing the point of WATER Palace.

[@superstarxalien169]

That was already possible in Sonic Rush. Even if so, it's still really frustrating.

[@yetanotherhankhill1032]

Wait, couldn't he already kinda do that in Sonic Rush?

[@thederpyinkling]

not really only if it had that wire thing on it

[@deshirabrinson272]

In sonic 3 he just simply ran across the water in hydro city

[@UltraSTH]

Sonic could only run on water after a water slide in Sonic Rush

[@JohnXuandou]

The first 30 seconds of the level is travelling the ONE path with no obstacles. Then a 15 second platforming section, then more boost to win for the rest of the level. This is not work, this is garbage level design. If you think I'm trolling, you are a delusional fanboy. By the way, those seconds are not numbers I made up. Rewatch the video and count how long Melpontro has to actually maneuver around the level. Besides missing the jump at 1:15, he's holding forward for 90% of the level.

[@MarineMechX2]

Yo! In the end, you almost got beat by the seagull that appeared in the beginning!

[@epicawesomesauceguy]

hedgehog :)

[@pedrogomezid]

It's not DIMPS' fault. They were given like a year to develop the game while Sonic Team has been doing the console version since Sonic Unleashed. It's similar to the 06' case, though this game wasn't a complete failure like Sonic 06' just a little underwhelming.

[@Netherman14TheHellblazer]

Why does the 3DS version have item boxes and the PC/console doesn't?

[@bend7726]

The 3ds version needed more levels like this. I was disappointed how this was the only level to represent the handheld sonic games (and tropical resort if you count the ds version) where there was so many they could of chosen from.

[@Phoenix_Destiny_Kai]

From what I heard, Advance 3 wasn't really popular but yeah.... we could have had levels from advances 1&2 plus some of the GG titles for the Classic Era.

[@pedrogomezid]

This game is awesome, but it needed Heroes and Rush Adventure or Unleashed, i would've loved to see the Pirate Ship or Cool Edge/Savannah Citadel in Rush style...and Casino Park or Grand Metropolis :3
