This collection is still the best. Those new Mega Man collections are soulless garbage compared to Sonic Mega Collection Plus

SEGA did something because I keep getting recommended videos of Sonic fans who's introduction to the series was on the Gamecube.

>> No.8672310

They would have put Sonic Adventure 2 on PS2, if they wanted to cultivate an absolute legion of autistic fans.

Is the GC the best Sonic console of all time? You get both sonic adventures, all the genesis games, Sonic R, Sonic CD, the arcade fighting game, all the gamegear games, the Shadow game, and you can get the tails and knuckles chao in Phantasy Star Online

Oh and with the GBP you get all the Sonic advance games, plus their linked capabilities. Yeah I'm gonna say the gamecube was THE Sonic console.

No, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle caused way more autism than that, that one was the real autism bomb.

If anything, Mega Collection birthed a subset of chad Classicfags. Y'know, the ones actually making the decent fangame stuff and fighting for the health of the IP.

This started in 1998. His “edgehog” redesign made sense because he was speaking full voiced lines in Sonic Adventure and needed to emote a little more.
After Sonic Adventure series concluded they should have reverted back to classic and made him more silent again ala mayrio.

Some autist on Sonic Retro did a list based purely on number of Sonic games on each system, excluding quality or content (Sonic Blast is on equal terms with Unleashed as a single game):
>og Wii (36) > og PS3 (35) GCN+GBP (31) > Xbox360 (27)
imo Wii has some shovelware padding (Storybook, Olympics), and PS3 usually has the worst versions of most modern Sonic games, so the Gamecube and Xbox 360 combo are the way to go

Sonic and Mario were only ever silent because of hardware limitations. If it was possible at the time I guarantee that hack Miyamoto would've had Mario spouting bullshit.

As far as I remember, some random Genesis games like Comix Zone and a bunch of Game Gear games
But not all the Game Gear games, you'll need to buy SADX or Gems Collection for that, now pay up paypig, we know you have an autistic fixation on Sonic and can't help yourself. You will buy more Sonic products.
