Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I (Wii) - 100% Longplay (No Damage)

Originally recorded for www.longplays.org
My first Wii longplay on Dolphin 5.0 because i maked a tutorial for Wii longplays on that Emulator (works only for games in that you must not swing the wii remote cause of Wii remote desyncs) :O
Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I is a 2010 side-scrolling platform game developed by Dimps, with assistance from Sonic Team, and published by Sega. It is part of the Sonic the Hedgehog series and acts as a sequel to Sonic & Knuckles (1994). Episode I follows Sonic as he sets out to stop Doctor Eggman, who has returned following his defeat in Sonic & Knuckles. The game returns to the Sega Genesis style of Sonic gameplay, with movement restricted to a 2D plane. Like previous Sonic games, the player races through levels, collecting rings while rolling into a ball to attack enemies. The game also features special stages in which the player collects Chaos Emeralds and online leaderboards comparing level completion times and high scores.
Development began in June 2009 and lasted a year and a half. The game was conceived as a smartphone-exclusive spin-off before becoming a multiplatform, mainline Sonic installment. It was designed to appeal to both older Sonic fans who played the Genesis games and newer ones who played later games like Sonic Unleashed (2008). As a continuation of the classic Sonic titles, Episode I features no voice acting, a simple control scheme, level design emphasizing platforming and momentum-based gameplay, and no player characters besides Sonic himself; however, it incorporates Sonic's design and homing attack ability from Sonic Adventure (1998). Producer Takashi Iizuka and composer Jun Senoue were the only Sonic 4 developers who contributed to the Genesis games.
Episode I was released worldwide in October 2010 as a downloadable game for iOS, PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360. A release for Windows Phone followed in June 2011, for Windows and Android in January 2012, for BlackBerry Tablet OS in July 2012, and for Ouya in July 2013. The game received moderately positive reviews and sold over a million copies in under a year. Critics described Episode I as a satisfying return to classic Sonic gameplay and praised the sense of nostalgia. Criticism was directed at its physics engine, considered inferior to that of the Genesis games, and its short length. Episode I was envisioned as the first of an episodic video game trilogy. Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II was released in May 2012, while Episode III was never made.
The Wii version got of all versions with 81 the best Metacritic even Episode II was not released for Wii or Wii U.
This longplay is 100%, so i got all Chaos Emeralds, thats the reason why i play tool-assisted on Dolphin 5.0 because without savestates all Chaos Emeralds can i forget it.

Hated for a good reason, we cant allow this slop to be acceptable

@@Trashedaccount123 I mean, you do have a very good point. I sure wouldn't want any future sonic games ending up like this.

​@@Trashedaccount123Your wording sounds like this game was released recently, move the hell on "We can't let this 14 year old video game become the norm!" Grow up, imagine having such a raging f*cking hate rager all because the physics are slightly different, you Sonic fans are the most pathetic never pleased childish losers I've ever met, there's a reason I'm not active in the fanbase anymore

Hi just wondering is there any way to play this using the Wii on the Wii u in 2021

[@casualwiifan]

Actually, yes! ( and for free, too!) Just smack the homebrew channel on there, ( there is a Wii U version) And download Sonic 4 onto a thumb drive, go into the Homebrew channel, and upload it from there through Wii mode. Hope that this gives you a basic idea of what to do, and enjoy the game!

[@albertoeinty1009]
