Trivia: the 8-bit version of Sonic 2 for the Master System and the Game Gear came before 16-bit Sonic 2 for the Genesis/Mega Drive because in 8-bit Sonic 2, Tails made his debut as a non-playable character. 8-bit Sonic 2 is Sonic 2, Part 1 and 16-bit Sonic 2 is Sonic 2, Part 2.

If you really enjoyed Mean Bean Machine I recommend taking a dive in the Puyo Puyo series itself. You already know how to play, and navigating the menus in Japanese is mostly trial and error, with memorization when you figure everything out. Mean Bean machine is based off of the first game which is clunky in comparison to Puyo Puyo Tsu.

I now own a game gear and several games for it. And I will say that in my experience, it is not exactly the norm that game gear games are just zoomed in versions of master system games. Games like Wonderboy 3 and Vampire master of darkness actually redesign every level and the U.I to accomodate for the lower resolution, while Castle of Illusion runs in master system mode, causing it to have the same exact aspect ratio of the master system, but at a lower resolution making everything a little blurry. So it is quite unfortunate that the biggest sega franchise and the one that actually suffered the most from screen crunch, didn't actually attempted anything to accomodate for the lower resolution of the game gear, just zoomed in this fast paced platformer ala super mario bros deluxe.

Sure it would have sucked to get Blast instead of Triple Trouble or one of the console Sonic games for a birthday or rented for a weekend, but having the benefit of hindsight - and a healthy dose of patience for a game that looked out of date when it was new - I really enjoy it. I actually like it more than the Master System Sonic 2, as a decent portion of that game frustrates me to no end, while Blast remains endearing, if simple.

Sonic 1 was a great all around game and with some work I beat it and enjoyed it. Sonic Chaos was my favorite game for a long time. I played it all the time and loved beating it. Sonic 2...Sonic freakin 2. That was so hard for 5,6,7,8 year old me. I can't tell you how long it took to get passed the first boss. After a few years I was able to get to Scrambled Egg every now and then and then die. Didn't beat the game until 3 years ago as a Freshman in college. I love your videos especially Sonic since it was such a big part of my childhood. Keep em coming.

I'm an American gamer, and in some ways, I favor the slower platforming elements found in CD and Sonic 1 8 Bit than I do the faster games. Then again, I also played my Sonic games next to my shareware DOS platformers at that time, so I'd be doing Sonic 1 Genesis one second and Jill of the Jungle or Crystal Caves the next. Might be why. Not that I don't enjoy Sonic's speed when it's done well. I still hate the Wave Ocean boss, and Sonic Advance 2, while fun, and I love some of the stages like Music Plant, I hated the bosses. Who thought the running bosses were a good idea? After a while, I just gave up on ever getting all the Chaos Emeralds and forgot all about it, in lieu of Sonic Battle. That's still an oddball little Sonic game, but it was a fun way for me to pass many an hour, even if my builds were fairly predictable, and the fighting mechanics okay. But when I did finally play Sonic 1 on the Master System, I got a kick out of it. I really enjoyed the platforming mechanics, and I came away really liking Jungle Zone and Bridge Zone (of course.) It gave me respect for how some of the 8 bit releases of Genesis games were given a lot of thought and consideration for the conversions. Things like Ristar, and Shining Force. I thought both were treated fairly well. Sonic 2 8 Bit was okay, and yes, I once tried to play it on Game Gear. I beat it, with all emeralds, and am never going back to it again.

Yeah, that's sadly a very common problem with Game Gears. But even when they were brand new, there was something very noticeably distinct about them. Like, I was playing one of the Game Gear games on Sonic Adventure DX the other day, and as the SEGA logo faded in, it reminded me of how the handheld would start buzzing when the screen lit up (probably poor shielding), and how it just had this faint electrical smell while in operation. Despite how it sounds though, I don't really consider those detriments. It's more just a result of the tech they were working with at the time. And it says a lot that all these years later, I remember that so specifically.

god, that boss at the end of under ground zone, at least I now understand why I could never beat him. this did remind me of a video game magazine my mom bought me one time not long after I got sonic 2 on game gear. it was a gamepro (I think??) and on one of the pages it said there was a code to unlock the stage select on sonic 2. finally, I thought, I could make it past that stupid boss and see what the rest of the game was like. it said the code was in a different section of the magazine on page whatever, but going to that page yielded no codes for anything. I searched the magazine, and scoured the part of the magazine that actually had codes, but couldn't find this code for sonic 2. seriously, I was beginning to think it was hidden in one of the margins to make it feel more rewarding to find, but not even my parents could find it. a while later I tried looking again (I decided to try sonic 2 again and I was a desperate child). after scrutinizing the magazine even further it turns out that blurb appeared in a preview for a different spinoff magazine. gamepro basically took the first few pages out of the first issue of this new magazine and just kinda put them into a issue of their main magazine. the page listed was for a completely different magazine that probably went out of print months ago. I always thought it was a mistake, but now I'm 80% certain they did it on purpose, though you think they'd edit for that sort of thing. anyway I never did look up the stage select code after the internet became available to me, maybe I should actually try and look for it.

In the 90's it was 4 games per year, now it's one game per 4 years.

I was introduced to Sonic through a knockoff Master System here in Brazil, and I do prefer slower gameplay. I think this is why I didn't mind Unleashed too much, and I played the PS2 version!

Imagine if they used the School House voice for every Sonic game.
