Unused Super Sonic Cutscene

Had a box of VHS tapes of Sonic 2 beta footage from back when I worked at STI. I was a beta tester for the game. Some footage was anomalies that was filmed at the time of playtesting and some were filmed later on where I managed to pick up some of the carts SEGA was about to dispose of. This seems to be the unused super sonic cutscene from back before it was scrapped. Dated around the time of the "Simon Wai" proto, this cutscene is the only noticeable difference to me. The tape seemed to be incomplete, blacking out at some parts. Tape rot perhaps. The color is messed up for sure so that could be it.
I am 100% positive this was supposed to be a analog horror arg similar to the Mario 64 beta archive, and even though these channels were so 2 years ago, I still find them fascinating. I’m honestly kinda sad that this channel that probably had big ambitions only got 1 video. It makes me wonder what could have been, just like how I’m still wondering how the Mario 64 beta archive could have ended if it wasn’t canned. RIP Sonic 2 beta documents. Could have been so much more.
I think it's going to be that but with fleetway super sonic.
That would be cool, and that would be so much more original if then If it was just sonic exe or some dumb crap like that
@@mayday_SR tbh sonic.exe just annoys me. And other people making other characters to have a exe form bothers me a lot.
@@Guffmclol facts
This was released around the same time a huge data mining leak that revealed groundbreaking details about SM64’s beta (like Luigi’s model for example) made the internet obsessed with SM64 beta aesthetics as well as the Wario apparition meme surfacing at the time so it’s likely this was released to parallel that trend.
i can imagine some tired sounding guy narrating the happenings of this, and getting terrified when the game cuts out and it wasn’t supposed to
welp im terrified on the end and this is some kind of creepypasta
AND THE SYSTEM CLEARLY GOT HALTED
Then he woke
I think this will become a fleetway super sonic analog horror series (I guess).
@@timebmber this aint this was the original purpose of the zone before it got scrapped
There were some sources that said that HPZ was going to be some kind of level that acts like a portal for sonic after he acquired all the 7 chaos emeralds and transform into super sonic. Whether this copy of super transformation is legitimate or not, I believe that this was how the level was intended to be. And also the HPZ music at the super transformation scene was the the music intended for that particular cutscene. But all these ideas were dropped and it was put up in Sonic 3 and knuckles, along with the Super emeralds lore.
It makes sense, considering the unused song is the only "level theme" to end conclusively in Masa's demos (as opposed to fading into silence as it continues to loop). What I'd heard (albeit unconfirmed iirc) is that Hidden Palace would be the destination of the special stage star rings once all the special stages had been cleared. Complete Hidden Palace, unlock Super!
@@PhirePhlame Yes. Even I heard bits and pieces of that information too. It's very sad though that this idea was scrapped from the original game. Due to time constraints, there was no alternative but to scrap it off from the game.
Can we completed this scary Mystery?
We need to find a rom of the Sonic 2 Simon Wai prototype where this Super Sonic cutscene is restored
@@timebmber yeh because i dont wanna use logic and solve this by my own
I know this is meant to be creepy, but thank you for giving me something close to what this scene would've looked like in the original game.
Wtf I just noticed Sonic's expression of pain and his face disappearing
@@Convoy143, same
@@Convoy143 This kinda looks real
Well hey this was before the games realest plus it was on a vhs so
@@SquidPartyDude actually it's the creater of this video just playing prototype sonic 2 and the cutscene are just well made
I'll admit this honestly looks legit considering what the stage was originally meant to be for.
The description says it is so it might really be legit
@@octoberspiderspider226 dude it’s obviously not legit
Nah i wanna play Sonic Delta 40MB
@@devinowens2166 We know it's not legit, but it does look that way from how well it's been made.
@@picoultimate7707 True! This stage was originally for when Sonic had all the emeralds, right? I’m not sure.
If only this is how you got Super Sonic in the actual game. It would've been better if you did 6 Special Stages, entered Hidden Palace, and managed to get the 7th Chaos Emerald there.
the best part about this is the backing instruments for the music getting cut when sound effects play, as that happened sometimes on original hardware because of sound channels.
not sometimes but always - the composer should prioritize the instruments using 6 available channels in the way that is some sound would play that would replace the less important instrument.
VHS Footage that was recorded the gameplay and the cutscene of hidden palace zone is really cool.
It is not real tho
ik
I was hype as shit then i realized......this is like 1080P VHS lmaooo
And it looks the palette like in the medgen
720p VHS exists. But yea 1080p is completely wrong.
Actually once I uploaded a video then while it was uploading TH-cam said it was processing in 1080p
the effect looks cool tho
Date in the bottom is completely OFF.
Wow i genuinely thought this was like real or at least a mock up of what couldve happened and didnt expect the end.
sprites look too smooth and stuff to be closer to the Simon Wai proto..
That would be interesting if it was in the game, sonic find out about a 7th chaos emerald and then accidentally transform, due the hidden palace crumbling into pieces after you obtained the emerald
That ending part was really scaring me out.
Hey, ya buyed gold right?
probaly this was a early version of sonic turning into his super form.
Easy to spot how it's fake. There are CRAM dots on the bottom during normal gameplay, which wouldn't be seen if recording a VHS on the actual hardware. It then disappears during the "cutscene" and the "system halted" screen. The actual gameplay was likely a recording of the BlastEM emulator, which does show these dots.
Couple that with the fact that the resolution is too high for VHS. Granted, upscaling isn't impossible. Still unlikely that it was upscaled.
Overall, seems you had fooled a decent amount of people with it. Nice animation for the most part, but shaking the chaos emerald in the way you did would be very difficult to pull off in assembly.
Also, shame you didn't make any more uploads. Would love to see what other ideas you have.
@Sonic 2 Beta Docs rip old account 2020-2022 also you finding more footage?
@Sonic 2 Beta Docs So this is fake all the time?
Fun fact: Sonic 2 was originally planned to have this zone in as Hidden Palace, a zone that now exists in sonic 3, thought the textures and the music are still in the sonic 2 files
It’s also in the 2013 remaster
It's also accessible via an Action Replay cat or similar in the retail release though all its data is garbled.
@@inkboi215 another fun fact: the hidden palace zone beta is in the 2013 remaster and i'm not talking about the secret mystic cave level but the original beta level
@@ser_celestial I AM aware of that, you have to put in a code for that in the level select
It's now back in origins
Interesting, this is every copy of sonic the hedgehog 2 is personalized. 🤔
Don't remember me about that stupid shit of theory (wario aparitión)
Jajajajajajajaj Her WAT Theoryoooooo YOLOBROTROLL B
Hidden palace zone was gonna be where you unlock super sonic
True
@@kuzregoistgold You mean after collect all 7 chaos emerald
if someone does a rom hack which the levels are complete and this cutscene is included, then i will blow up.
There is one with out the cutscene but
with the beta levels
If I ever learn how to make a ROM hack, this is one I'd make.
I’m attempting something similar to this. I’m making a Sonic 2 RomHack based on concepts, such as concept art, physics, and even levels like blue ocean zone and obviously the more common ones.
@@user-ku3sr7cl3u NEAT
@@user-ku3sr7cl3u Sounds epic can't wait to play it! :)
This IS The unused Cutsene of
The First time of The super Sonic transformation
Sonic 1 Level Select: I'm still here
That reminds me of that one specific location in Earthworm Jim where you teleport to this very dark place with glowing eyes. would be a neat mechanic in this game
Hhhhhhhhh
Ooh taking inspiration from the Mario 64 beta creepypastas I see 👀 I like it!
I think I am the only person who realised this is the ONLY video being posted from this channel AND it came out 2 years ago at the beginning of the FNAF VHS hype.
I really like this. And I think you should post more videos on sonic 2 development or maybe classic sonic development.
This channel made one video then disappeared, never to be seen again.
This is gonna be the start of something terrifying I just know it!
Maybe this will feature fleetway super sonic from sonic the comic.
My man this is not how to start a horror series
You should definitely make more of this stuff, shit's awesome
Nah I don't think he made up
hidden palace was really meant to be a level like this
And I think the "system halted" error Was because the genesis couldn't handle it
Why am I getting recommended this? Looks like it's been blowing up considering the newest replies. Really wish this was more than what it was, a Sonic 2 Beta analog horror series would have been amazing, so much potential within it.
@Sonic 2 Beta Docs Ooh sick, that's awesome man! I'll be sure to look forward to that, this series has still got the potential to be interesting, and I wish you luck on it!
seeing sonic's face basically melt as he turns super was genuinely unsettling geez
Hidden palace wasn’t in the original sonic 2 it was added in the mobile ports…
Who's gonna tell them?
Hidden Palace is a cut level from Sonic 2 but you can still play it the 2012 mobile port you have to enter 0303030B10101004 on sound test then go to hidden Palace and you can play the original cut level
@@Mr.IDK07the mobile port was 2013 man or you taoing about java
Super sonic was so powerfull that it crashed the ROM.Damn
Is this all you found?it’s been 1 year and 22 days since the beginning of this channel.
You are awesome for this!
as soon as the sound started playing my ears started loudly ringing
wtf
your channel logo is THE most Unused zone in sonic, your name is desert dazzle. i Explored that zone in rsdk, but i have seen that only photos of that zone
This zone looks awsome. And I’m also shok at when you recorded this 1992?!
Bro like oh my god this looks so realistic
So Super sonic is so powerful he crashes the game
he was tweaked so the game didn't go ILLEGAL INSTRUCTION
@@nil8659 Thank god
The fact you not getting all the rings is pissing me off
SEGA:YOU BROKE IT LITTLE-
Kinda sad to know that this is fake, because your execution of the idea matches perfectly with both the devlore and the logical course of things: I especially liked how Sonic seemed to panic when he, and I quote my own little idea, "transformed for the first time ever".
Also, the face being the center of the Super transformation glow (hence why it "disappears") makes sense, when we see how Modern Sonic's eye color changes between forms. Could the glow come from the eyes themselves?
All in all, this is a wonderful "what-if" video, and I am saddened that the idea was scrapped at all.
This was meant to happen in
prototypes of this game, and how are you sure it's fake
@@CJ_7521 Several tropes that make the video unbelievable.
Bruh i got recommended this 2 years later
Cutscene at 1:34
They removed tails leaving you behind when you went away, it's like the multiplayer but you control both sonic and tails lol
Sonic walking smootly already scared the shat out of me
For those who are gullible, this video is fake. It doesn’t look at all like a VHS tape (no color bleeding, way too high resolution) and the color effect on it isn’t possible by just tape rot as the description says.
Okay but this sounds like it was taken from a creepypasta lol
Hidden Palace Zone. A job well done.
Eu sei que é mentira, mas não deixa de ser uma boa recriação.
The beta had Neo green hill zone? The Sonic Advance version as well as Sunset Hill were how I first ever experienced that level.
THE GOD PALACE PROTO PALACE ZONE get it because its the prototybe of sonic 2 hehehe i hate myself
needs more crappy vhs filters from the app store
This is the prototype
Man I swear this is the first 1080p60 video of hidden palace I've seen
I'm sick of people still recording a genesis game at 30fps man
Me: *sees and clicks the video*
Me seconds later after finding out metropolis is the 3rd stage in the video:
HOLD UP SOMETHING AINT RIGHT
I've always wanted to make that cutscene in a room hack. I tried in rr 1, but I lacked the technical knowhow then. Should do it, eventually.
Seems like something you'd see in a dream
he was too powerful for the mega drive to handle.
You needed all the chaos emeralds to get to hidden palace zone the way I remember seeing the prototype but I don’t remember but what I DO remember is the smooth sprites that we needed to remove due to memory storage!
Yeah I know the smooth sprites had to be removed cuz the memory, and also are you one of the developers?
Unfortunate this ARG hasn't uploaded anything other than this.
Finally a horror series that isn't on its last episode said to come out...never, I'm excited to actually watch a horror series develop from the beginning
You bet I'm interested
Looks like the system couldn't handle the power
Are you going to continue this?
That's it? THAT WAS THE UNUSED SUPER SONIC CUTSCENE? THERE WAS NO BLEEDING IN OR REGULAR RESOLUTION.
So, no more Super Sonic 3? 😅😢
Like how i got a ad called "perfect lie" on this video lol
Though this is definitely a mockup it's interesting for sure
Not only is fake, but no VHS tapes at the time had a timestamp like that. "Worked at STI" lol
would've been a lot more believable if it didn't have the Sonic Mania animations, the movements wayyy too smooth
That’s sad…
I mean it kinda makes sense, why would sonic know how to turn super the first time? Makes more sense it was forced on him or happened by accident.
Def nightmare fuel 🤣
Nightmare paralysis demon type of stuff lol
this looks so interesting
How did u find this?
I think what gives away that this isn't Sonic 2 level design is its reliance on the spin dash. But otherwise this is cool.
because that scene was made on the same day and month of my birth
The music here gives me weird feelings.
looks like a creepy sonic lost tapes
poor rom, couldn't handle the cutscene
OH GOD, SUPER SONIC KILLED THE GAME
1:38 please play the super sonic music here now
🤔 (is that true of false?)
This is false😉
@Cybershell13
Hey man i know im late but remember about your video where you were talking about a secret sonic balancing sprite?
Well many people like me have said that there was a 5th sprite too and look at the end
1:37 super sonic
It's time to go super saiyan
wow, this is on the day and month of my birth!
This could be a interesting series
0:32 did sonic get a 1-up with a tails 1-up monitor when it wasn’t his
in The Nick Arcade Prototype Item Mapping Was incorrect Because in Sonic 1 item Mapping is Correct Sonic 2 (NA PROTOTYPE) Item Mapping is From Sonic 1 The Object ID Was Not Changed in Sonic 2 (NA PROTOTYPE)
You can still get it on the mobile sonic 2 so you do the debug mode code then you go to hidden Palace zone and your on the nick arcade hidden Palace zone but it's no called hidden Palace zone it's called proto Palace because is from the nick arcade sonic 2 that's why is called proto Palace zone
... he just turn faceless.
Obviously fake footage, Astropede wasn't anywhere.
but, this already have 1 year...
I was expecting the emerald to be like *YOU'RE GOING TO BRAZIL* & just drag Sonic while he screams in agony like this:
th-cam.com/video/_kME6JH-eaw/w-d-xo.html
lol
How can some people fall for this? VHS's dont look like this at all man.
Tell me how it's fake
@@Mr_Gamer-Random simple, it's fake
@@Unused-b4j but how do you even know it's fake you don't even tell me you just says it's fake
@@Mr_Gamer-Random he got the error code wrong, that address is big for one rom
Welcome to the world of VHS tape ARGs, Candy, we know the stuff is fake, we just like to play along.
Can someone mod Sonic 2 Absolute to have a Super Sonic unlock cutscene with a hidden Palace mod
So this footage was made in July 28, 1992 in the Simon Wai build?
I'm guessing this is for an Alternate Reality Game haha
Let's hope it actually starts lmao
still waiting, still waiting for a new vhs.
Sonic looks a little different
Sonic tweakin
