Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure playthrough ~Longplay~

[@hoobaguy]

My mom used to sell cell phones back in the day before you could get them anywhere. She had 3 locations and 2 of them were an hour away from where we lived, each in a different direction. I'd have to stay at my grandmother's house after school and wait for mom to come back and get me late at night. The NGPC and the dreamcast were my babysitters, as my grandmother wanted nothing to do with me. This hits super hard. I'd even set the alarm on the NGPC to wake me up around the time I thought my mom would be there in case I fell asleep. Damn!

I'm not necessarily disagreeing, but the Neo Geo Pocket Color is quite a bit more powerful than the Game Gear.

[@ExaltedArchvile]

I love how this game seamlessly puts together ideas from Sonic 1, 2, and 3 to make a perfect little "Sonic the Hedgehog" game. Like, yeah, a lot of these levels are just the Sonic 2 zones with Sonic 3 music, but I like how they mix Scrap Brain Zone from Sonic 1 with elements of Metropolis Zone from Sonic 2 to make Gigantic Angel Zone. My personal favorites are the creative bosses of Secret Plant with the physics based swinging platforms and ESPECIALLY Gigantic Angel Zone where you have to stand on top of the MUSHROOM CLOUD EXPLOSIONS from the NUKES Dr. Eggman drops on you to hit him! Bottom line, it's no wonder how this game got a 10/10 review on IGN.

[@jerrytaglocop1006]

I like how it uses sonic 3's soundtrack

[@jerrytaglocop1006]

Plus it is basically an beta version of sonic advance

[@TheGoldNShadow]

I like how: • You enter special stages like Sonic 1 (and also has Scrap Brain zone) • Has most of Sonic 2’s zones and its special stages • Has the Sonic 3 OST, like you said originally • It’s basically the 8-bit Sonic 3 the Master System and Game Gear never got.

[@SquallyCoin5664]
