Appreciate the hard work here! It's been requested by a ton of viewers 🙏 I considered labeling the games but was worried the timer + kill counter was already too distracting.
16:02 This is the most devastating betrayal in a video game ever. The uncertain smidge of hope once Tails is out of sight, crushed within seconds by the offscreen ring chimes, warranting a cut off scream. Comedy at its finest.
I wish JWittz was more familiar with Sonic Advance 3's controls. If you hold L, you can carry your teammate, which would prevent them for collecting rings outside of your control. Then you can release L for a team action, which would let Tails fly him around for a while. I would've loved to see how far he could get if he knew the controls.
@@EpicEverz why did i forget about that LMAO also i knew once he tried to get tails "offscreen" it was over cuz they can be quite far from you and still gather rings
Tails in every Sonic game: "Ouuuh, shiney!" Sonic to Tails in every Sonic game: "Give me one reason not to end you..." Sonic in Shadow's game: "Ouuuh, shiney!" *gunshot*
You could’ve made it a little farther in Shadow if you switched your mission on the pause menu. Sonic and Black Doom will follow you if you’re doing the hero mission and dark mission respectfully. But if you selected the neutral mission, you’d be alone and no one would grab rings. But this is very entertaining, glad to have you back! 😊
You don’t even need to go in the pause menu. You can just use the D-pad. I think it’s left goes evil path, right goes hero path, and up is neutral. It’s been forever since I’ve played, though.
16:14 Funny thing about that. Not only were both OSTs primarily composed by the same guy (Hideki Naganuma), but the song that plays in that stage of Sonic Rush, Right There Ride On, actually shares a rhythm guitar sample with a Jet Set Radio song, Rock It On. Naganuma himself has said that this was intentional. Edit: probably should have watched for a few more seconds before commenting, huh?
The abrupt cuts right after you lay out a plan for getting past the rings get me every time "If I can, with my speed, get to that platform, then jump- Hey Knuckles!"
This just feels straight up impossible. Unlike Mario, Sonic moved at the highest speeds imaginable and even hardcore memorization can't protect you from rings. This will be interesting...
Not to mention sections that are basically automatic. The Adventure games are probably possible with Hard Core Speed Run strats, but still very difficult
Hearing JWittz be so happy about Sonic Colors makes ME so happy too. I love that game with all my heart. And yeah, there's DEFINITELY an early-2010s feel to the game, and that's like. My favorite era of anything, ever. All the cartoons from that era were great, too (Young Justice season 1 and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated are still some of my favorite shows ever made)
You know I would honestly like to watch you play Sonic Colors casually either as a video or maybe a livestream. You were really enjoying yourself even when dodging rings.
JWittz, you're the first TH-camr I ever subscribed to (something like 9-10 years ago) and the reason I started watching TH-cam consistently in general. Thanks for being a big part of my journey online! And thanks for a great video as always!
That was pretty fun to watch challenge even if it might actually be impossible since in many of the Sonic games you can't get past some areas without collecting some rings. It is great to see you making videos again!
Super fun seeing all these Sonic games. I'd love to see a re-edit where the games are in order of release date, so we can see the chronological progression of the graphics and little alterations of mechanics.
I recommend giving Project 06 by ChaosX a shot after getting a little more of a taste of the original 06. It's really inspirational to see a bad game actually become somewhat fun and playable.
city escape is one of the few levels in sa2 that you cant complete without getting a ring due to the boost pads at the end right before the truck chase. no matter where you go it will correct you to the center and you will pick up 5 rings. i did actually end up clipping through by accident but there's no way i could tell you how to even replicate that and im pretty sure it was just a fluke or a trick on my eyes
As a sonic mega fan back in my childhood, I played most of the games featured in this video both good and bad including some not featured in the vid. Watching this makes me want to go back to playing those games again
this format is so good and hilarious. pls do it again some time! idk with what franchise tho, since the two that had a lot of games that i could think of are already a video.. maybe kirby? or mario spin offs? zelda (kinda easy tho, maybe?)? or just take a shot and do it with ones that have fewer installments like crash? idk pls i just need it, i love this video so much
Just wanna say, glad to see you go through the 8 bit sonic games. I have yet to see anyone do them in their Sonic challenges and it's good to see the GG and SMS games represented.
I got an ad the INSTANT before your first ring and that was hilarious to me! When the ad ended you were on the next game which makes it that much funnier to me.
it's kind of encouraging to see a guy who's so successful on yt playing sans facecam and still making some entertaining video game stuff. it's weird feeling like basically every vg channel has to put their face in the corner and jwittz isn't having any of that
I bet you could make it in the end levels. It’s funny that the hardest levels are first now cause they try the hardest to throw you face first into a ring. The “tutorial” rings.
Man, It’s been so long since I’ve seen a TheJWittz video, I used to watch all of your top 10 Pokémon videos and your Pokémon Rumble U vids, glad to see your channel is still up and thriving
I would love to see ya try DK games with no banana's because in DK64 there's some fun speedrun strats you can use to get through levels without needing banana's. I know ya like speedruns so I figured I'd mention that at least, none of its particularly difficult to pull off either.
Geez it's like doing anything that's against the concept of collecting is so difficult both Mario and Sonic don't give you enough room to not touch any coin or Ring, this was fun going through all the games and hearing you talk Jwittz
I got motion sickness to the point of vomiting every time I played Sonic 3D Blast as a kid but was too dumb to put the pieces together. Glad that sections was short in the video lol
18:05 when prince william tries to pick up the spare change you dropped, but you threaten to watch his tv without a license. (You're currently at a royal ball, which this would ruin.)
Woah, I forgot you existed, it’s been like 8 years since I last watched you, good to see your still around, and I don’t think you had 1 mil last I saw, good job dude
The Genesis was my first system too. I remember playing Sonic, Mortal Kombat, and Streetfighter 2 a lot as a wee little boy. good times. Never managed to beat Sonic the Hedgehog.
If you are gonna do a re-run with Sonic Adventure DX - try holding a spindash button, releasing it and instantly pressing jump - you can jump at big distances like that, especially if you do this while at upwards slope!
I didn't expect this video to be so entertaining. One minor criticism tho: It would be cool to see the cover of the sonic game you are playing somewhere.

The way the video is cut makes it seem like we're phasing through timelines and dimensions, I love it.
Every Ring Everywhere All at Once
there's a romhack of some sorts that does exactly that.
You gotta love the dedication to the challenge, the sound of anguish he makes when he collects a ring

I absolutely love the Wittz commentary. It's great to have it back honestly.
Fully agree. Some of my favorite. So nostalgic.☺️
It wasn't until this comment did I realize who I was listening to
Tails in every Sonic game: "Ouuuh, shiney!"
Sonic to Tails in every Sonic game: "Give me one reason not to end you..."
Sonic in Shadow's game: "Ouuuh, shiney!"

Thank you for this! Was confused and am glad for clarification
i dont understand why people comment before finishing a video.
Can't wait for *"If I encounter a Pokémon in ALL Pokémon Games, The Video Ends"*
:O holy crap
How did you get in here,LTZ? (Lumiose Trainer Zac)
YO LUMIOSE TRAINER ZACK
He likes sonic? Real?
Longest video ever made on TH-cam:
Well it won’t be long I tell you that.
Love how it just cuts abruptly when you get a ring 😂
*Am I goo-*
It's like instant death. Lol
feels like Edge of Tomorrow, Sonic style!
During Sonic 06: “yeah I get to play a little Sonic!”
*This is not the victory you think it is*
The abrupt cuts right after you lay out a plan for getting past the rings get me every time
"If I can, with my speed, get to that platform, then jump- Hey Knuckles!"
That jump in frame rate from Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric (2014) to Sonic CD (1993) was pretty remarkable.
Weird how that advancement went backwards!
This just feels straight up impossible. Unlike Mario, Sonic moved at the highest speeds imaginable and even hardcore memorization can't protect you from rings. This will be interesting...
They exist
Not to mention sections that are basically automatic. The Adventure games are probably possible with Hard Core Speed Run strats, but still very difficult
16:08 The ost is by Hideki Naganuma, the composer for JSR. That’s probably why they sound so similar
There were honestly a lot of jumps made where I was surprised you didn't get any rings. The cut off screams made this a really fun one as well!
The comedic timing with Josh explaining how he plans to avoid collecting a ring as he collects the ring.
I like how he lasted longer in Sonic '06 just because of the cutscenes and loading times
I love hard cuts so these videos are always a joy
This series is basically how to turn any game into a horror game
I recommend Mario Sunshine without FLUDD ;)
Labyrinth zone without collecting rings
_no _*_that’s to much_*
@@acmiguens that impossble
Nothing like starting your morning off with a JWittz video
Hearing JWittz be so happy about Sonic Colors makes ME so happy too. I love that game with all my heart.

I really appreciate the dedication to such a difficult challenge! I mean, to me it sounds like it really put you through the ring-er
21:11 I love how you can hear a slight gasp before it cuts lmao
3:44
Beautiful moment of hope turning into despair and rage.
One of the only channels I’m willing to click the bell for.
I have clicked on at least 20.
You know I would honestly like to watch you play Sonic Colors casually either as a video or maybe a livestream. You were really enjoying yourself even when dodging rings.
Question is, originally muted version on wii at 30fps or Bloom filled 60fps on modern consoles??
@@JeskidoYT original all the way, unless he wanted to buy ultimate and mod it on PC
Honestly I’d love to see him play any of these games. Heck, even Black Knight: yeah it’s really wonky, but the banter is actually pretty fun
@@innocentzbat
Or the DS version, since that version has an extra boss
Plus it's the least-Sonic sonic game, which means most people actually like it.
JWittz, you're the first TH-camr I ever subscribed to (something like 9-10 years ago) and the reason I started watching TH-cam consistently in general. Thanks for being a big part of my journey online! And thanks for a great video as always!
Really enjoying seeing you back! Been watching for about 10 or 11 years now. Love all the new stuff!
I just love how abrubtly they end.
He's playing Sonic Blast on the definitive Master System port that was only released in Brazil. Clearly, Josh is a professional.
That was pretty fun to watch challenge even if it might actually be impossible since in many of the Sonic games you can't get past some areas without collecting some rings. It is great to see you making videos again!
A Jwittz style perfectly cut screams compilation. Wonderful.
6:14
"NO, NO!"
*Gasp*
"Am I goo-"
Perfectly cut.
Super fun seeing all these Sonic games. I'd love to see a re-edit where the games are in order of release date, so we can see the chronological progression of the graphics and little alterations of mechanics.
10:32 I love how the small light of flame from Knuckles’ extreme stunt was instantly brutally extinguished by the next row of rings 😂
I recommend giving Project 06 by ChaosX a shot after getting a little more of a taste of the original 06. It's really inspirational to see a bad game actually become somewhat fun and playable.
I know it was probably for the technicality of the challenge but the special red rings don't add to your count like the red coins in mario.
So happy with the burst of new videos lately, also a little sad to notice how 80% of these games all have the same first level lol
Wow, it’s so cool to see JWittz still kicking, and more expressive than ever! I love this!
When we’re getting regular saturday uploads from jwittz you know life is good💯
God, TH-cam hasn't shown me a JWittz video in like 9 years. It's good to be back.

2D forced speed sections actually feeling more scary than going on a ride at the attraction park, I love it
I got an ad the INSTANT before your first ring and that was hilarious to me!
When the ad ended you were on the next game which makes it that much funnier to me.
The coin video might be my personal favorite of yours, and this sequel did not disappoint.
JWittz freaking out any time he sees a loop, dash pad, or spring is hilarious XD
it's kind of encouraging to see a guy who's so successful on yt playing sans facecam and still making some entertaining video game stuff. it's weird feeling like basically every vg channel has to put their face in the corner and jwittz isn't having any of that
13:11 never heard someone so excited to be playing sonic 06 lol
I bet you could make it in the end levels. It’s funny that the hardest levels are first now cause they try the hardest to throw you face first into a ring. The “tutorial” rings.
Man, It’s been so long since I’ve seen a TheJWittz video, I used to watch all of your top 10 Pokémon videos and your Pokémon Rumble U vids, glad to see your channel is still up and thriving
Having watched the entire video, I still have no idea which one lasted the longest as I wasn't writing the times down.
Spoiler alert for anyone reading this
Sonic Colours was almost 5 min. Others came close, but that’s the winner I believe.
I feel like Sonic 06 shouldn't have counted since those are Rings that you don't ACTUALLY collect. They're Rings that are just given to you.
so much better than I could ever hope to do XD love that you're back at it!! hope it's feeling good!

no thanks bruh

Now it's time for Crash with no Wumpa Fruit.

Oh man that was a fun one again! Loved seeing mechanics used in unexpected ways.
I would love to see ya try DK games with no banana's because in DK64 there's some fun speedrun strats you can use to get through levels without needing banana's. I know ya like speedruns so I figured I'd mention that at least, none of its particularly difficult to pull off either.

What’s so painful is in Advance 3 he could’ve used Tails’ tag action to fly over
I got motion sickness to the point of vomiting every time I played Sonic 3D Blast as a kid but was too dumb to put the pieces together. Glad that sections was short in the video lol
Yeah! JWitts used my collage at 0:55 I should really update that someday
This is so fun. Thanks for all the pain and effort for this video! Appreciate all the effort
I love the format of this one better than the Mario video. Feels a bit easier to follow.
The Reactions, Cuts and Commentary is just hilarious,
Pure comedy for me
Only thing id add to this format is either the name of the game at the bottom or a picture of the box but other then that great work
Takes me back to the good ol days watching WittzGaming play through Pokemon XY
So many play out like “I just need to (x) while (x) and then (x) then ill-“*ends abruptly*
I meannnn, the music in Sonic Rush 1 was made by the same guy who did the music for Jet Set Radio, so it makes sense
OK but opening it with Sonic 91 and having the last one be Sonic 2 was *chef's kiss*
Always a blessed day when new Jwittz video drops!
Him enthusiastically saying "we got the d" awakens something within me

I thought it was gonna be chronological order but this way was so much better
1:30 *sees that its only 30 minutes long*
Ohh I have a feeling muscle memory kicked him hard
It gets me every time when you can see the ring coming and then just a hard cut to something else. I don't know why I find that as funny as I do.
"Thread the needle!-"
"This could be... the best jump ever... NGH-"
Ah the last episode was sooo funny, can't wait for this one
