I can't be the only one who prefers Sanic 1 vs 2 right?
Green Hill, Marble zone, spring yard... sonic 2 is Iconic to be sure, and I love both but...
Does anyone truly prefer sonic 1 like me?

Sonic would be good if it didn't make me wait for the score counter at the end of each level. It's not like there's load times.

Sonic 1 has a dumb level with a moving platform ride so long it triggers the blue blur's idle animation, and the boss fights are boring.

My main issue is with the games is the speed mechanic. Sonic 1 wanted you to conserve momentum, spindash kinda defeats the purpose.

Sonic 1 is the patrician choice OP.

Spin dash isn't as fast as running at full speed.

As a kid, the absence of a battery save in my Sonic 2 cartridge made me think it was cheap shit and inferior to SNES games. Didn't play the first Sonic until 2013. I don't like Taxman's games because they have vertical stripes that are supposed to blend into transparencies, but also real transparencies. It's very jarring to see both. Pick one and stick with it.

>waiting for the score counter.

OP here, that's one of my favorite moments of the entire game... if you want to bitch, the slowdowns in some of the platforming sections are much more tiresome.

I just love the sound, front, color... all of it!

Well Green Hill Zone is better than most of the zones from the second game but besides that its too slow compared to the second game. Also those levels that force you to slow down were an outdated concept even back then that the devs only did since they foolishly thought at the time to give people a breather from the fast levels.
