Beating the game with a good ending left a smile on my face. I felt like I was there, not too long after Sonic left, to see what our actions has brought. We knew we were too cool.
Weirdly I prefer this compressed animation, think it fits really well with the pixel artstyle of the actual game more than the remastered cutscenes. The sound quality is really good for the time too.
@@HugoGHA That has been an issue since Jam Because of how the cutscenes were done on the Mega CD it's impossible to match up the original cels with the Mega CD audio without using a dynamic framerate
@@PercyPanleo Actually, I have seen a video of a mod that syncs it almost perfectly. It's titled "Sonic Origins Mod - Fix timing and restore SFX for Sonic CD Ending" (can't really post links because TH-cam)
With the Time Stones and the planet restored, Studio Junio 'believed in themselves' and broke free from Toei to animate episodes of Batman: The Animated Series, but seriously that is true. :)
@@retrogamer7543 I was telling it in the form of a joke. But yes, Studio Junio was founded by former "Toei" Animation personnel. This was likely one of their first projects they did before separating entirely and doing other projects like the anime series; Montana Jones and being outsourced for a few Batman: The Animated Series episodes for Warner Bros.
Palmtree Panic, Collision Chaos, Quartz Quadrant, Wacky Workbench, Metallic Madness and Stardust Speedway. Metallic Madness actually comes after Stardust Speedway in the game but I guess they wanted to show the race against Metal Sonic last.
Bcs sadly Sega didn't thought of it back then, still it would have been cool but, sonic games would have been released in the Sega cd only, due to technical specs
The reason it looks so good is that they went to the trouble of retouching the animation frame by frame to fit the 16-color palette. Unlike many other Sega-CD games, where they simply converted the original footage automatically causing grainy dithered video.
See the bad ending in Sonic CD 920. In that version, which was the North American pre-release, they really make you feel like a failure for not getting all seven Time Stones. Not only are you treated to seeing the Little Planet imprisoned by Dr. Eggman again (because he got away with a Time Stone), but you're also treated to a "failure" tune, and the caption at the bottom reads "Try Again and Free (the) Little Planet Forever".
Now replace the 2011 Version of Cosmic Eternity with the original and the game would be perfect. All that karaoke over copyright issues? BIGGEST BUNCH O' BULLSHIT EVER!
Hadn't heard the Japanese ending song (had the PC version myself), but to be honest I prefer the US ending song - this is a little downbeat without being cool and relaxed. Gotta love the rap though ;) Thanks for posting this, really interesting to see :)
I've been looking for this one! Theres heaps of Sonic CD good endings on TH-cam, but the problem is, they're either the US version with the HORRIBLE sound track, or from Sonic Jam for Saturn, where the music comes in too early. That made me feel so nostalgic!
The ones who made the animation did all the work just for sega to turn it into a 8 bit disaster. at least the real animation was used for later releases.
The price you pay for developing a game on the finicky Mega CD hardware. What's funny is these crappy scale-downs were actually considered quite revolutionary given the time period
LjstarZero, I know, but I thought it would be like the PSX/Saturn releases of Mega Man X3 where there was a PAL song and a JP song. BTW that version of MMX3 was not released in America (aside from the PC version) until the MMX collection. Also the songs are different between those versions and the JP one is sung in japanese.
I agree with you, but I prefered the JP/EU music a LOT better than the US stuff! I had a Mega CD as well, and loved Sonic CD. I was estactic when I found the Gems collection on PS2 but was really disappointed with the soundtrack!
As far as the age-old soundtrack differences with Sonic CD goes, I have mixed feelings about both of them. Honestly, I felt that there was music in the North American version that worked better than the Japanese/European soundtrack and vice versa.
Yeah, I've heard both US and JP/EU endings, and the US one is far better and a lot more tolerable. I do wish they kept the sound effects for the US ending though, could've been in the background while the music played.
I remember when I got my good ending when sonic turn around then they hit the hard song beat I was like yoo and at the end they hit with the your too cool and I was like yea I am cool 😎👑💯
Us had a better game over theme? I think your right, but it shows too much of "YOU FAILED AT SAVING LITTLE PLANET. YOURE DOOMED" compared to the previous sonic games
if this is not the pc version this guy or gal is trying to say is its from the actual console the genesis sega cd megadrive sega mega cd. and i realized why.
The "You're Too Cool" screen (JP) makes me cry every time I see it.

Wait. Did anyone else just see that? The anime cutscenes in CD were apparently animated by TOEI ANIMATION. No wonder it's so good.
So the animators of *Dragon ball* animated this?
*YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH*
damn straight.
The director was Ryu watabe, voice actor of chop chop master onion from parappa!
Also for the ova

True. The colors also seem a lot more vibrant in the compressed version.
Seeing this, the darker cels that have released line up more with this Sega CD verison, then the one used in 2011.
Well the sound quality is because of the Sega CD

@@darassylmoniakam😮😊
Bad Ending: Eggman used the Time Stone in His Hand to Rebuild his Empire in Little Planet
Good Ending: LOOK AT ALL THE SPARKLING FLOWERS!!!!
Bad Ending Audio: hoohoo heehee funny gnome laugh lol xd
Good Ending Audio: OW THE SPARKLES ARE STABBING MY EARDRUMS
"You're too cool" made my day
Plus that little distant tune it has at the end when the star's are falling from the sky and turning into flowers is perfect
Funny you’re here.
The scene where Sonic is looking up into the sky with the sparkles coming down is always so beautiful no matter what version it is.
The best Sega-CD game ever.
In terms of cutscenes
Conclusion:
Sonic Boom! - Best Intro MUSIC for Sonic CD
Cosmic Eternity - Best Ending MUSIC for Sonic CD
I really like chu chu Sonic warrior from Europe/Japan
I feel the opposite sonic boom is better as ending music
TELEPORTATION, YEAH
Shabadowap-wap
I'll consider that next time i hear it.
Hmmm... Now that I think of it....
BikerBoyNJ what WERE you going to say?
I hear Sell them your backpack
Danny Enderdragon holy fuck I'm crying. sell them your backpack
2020 and this is still my favorite game of all time
I don't know why but it's really cool seeing animated Classic Sonic destroy badniks.
It’s a shame that the lyrics weren’t in the re-released version. Would’ve made that port perfect
The lyrics are thankfully intact in Origins.
@@GlitchanBlack unfortunately though, it's out of sync in Origins. It kinda ruins it because it's timed perfectly in the original Mega CD version.

Who knew that MS paint in a Sonic game could be better than MS paint in a Zelda game
It's all in the painter and what they've used to draw this. But yea.
Madden, it's a cel.
They use a dipping pen (or a strong marker) and then use cel paint on the back of each drawing
ACTUALLY
They used animations cells to draw them

God. Looking at these old FMV's just reminds me how the Taxman version spoiled the world with the remastered ones.
They animated it using cels.
Oh my God the music's right we were born in a special place

Can’t hear you my CD player is too cool
okay, if my pinpoints are correct:

1:32 Collision Chaos
1:40 Tidal Tempest
1:45 Quartz Quadrant
1:56 Wacky Workbench (?)
2:14 Metallic Madness
2:25 Stardust Speedway
Palmtree Panic, Collision Chaos, Quartz Quadrant, Wacky Workbench, Metallic Madness and Stardust Speedway. Metallic Madness actually comes after Stardust Speedway in the game but I guess they wanted to show the race against Metal Sonic last.

16 years later and it’s still good
Dang, Metal Sonic looks better in the Mega CD version than the 2011 version(not to say it’s bad; it’s actually very good)
The 2011 version is the PC Version of the original
@@InertBrian also the console and mobile version as well. U should also know that the 1996 windows port was also a pc port of sonic cd

Thank you for that vid! This Soundtrack is much better than the US Soundtrack.
I have achieved 5 time stones... NOOOOOO
Mushroom that's why I destroyed every generator for insurance, as I failed to get the time stones
To get good ending in the game,you need to get the 7 time stones or destroy all generators in the game
This is a 4 year old comment, I would have beaten the game in that time
I really find both soundtrack versions of the ending pretty cool.
Fun fact the original had no clip of R2 but the uncut clip had the R2 clip
Is it normal that I like this version more than the scanned drawings?
YOU'RE TOO COOL
Eggman looks funny in the beginning of the video when he's defeated
I'm too cool!

TAKE THIS!
*sniff* so *sniff* beautiful 0:41
3:36 that part got cut off by a fade out in the 2011 remake
Sonic cd is f**king awesome. I play it on sonic origins on switch.
You have to agree for a 1993 the cutscenes are pretty good
Anyone else think the JP fits the Good Ending better and the US fits the Bad Ending better?

The US Bad Future version of Metallic Madness gave me the impression of a nightmare waiting to happen.
What is the name of this beautiful soundtrack?
Cosmic Eternity
holy s*** its 2012 and this video was since 2007
Mr. Atari 2600 now its 2017
Now is 2018,almost 2019,time flies dudes
@TenchiUK Congrats on making the good future
Sonic is a masterpiece!
Now replace the 2011 Version of Cosmic Eternity with the original and the game would be perfect. All that karaoke over copyright issues? BIGGEST BUNCH O' BULLSHIT EVER!
Sigma Skye But at the Same time, it makes sense, how games handles copyright is nothing how TH-cam handles it.
Singers = Earn royalties from their vocals being used.
You’re too cool screen JP makes me happy

Sonic CD is overall easy, but getting this ending is difficult
Sonic CD is easy if you didn't focus about making a good future.
alright this is the real original Japanese version and i'm glad it needs a good ending and there it is.
Teleportation yeah!
Oh-shibbity-boo-yah!
Im glad nobody thought of something else in 2:05
If sonic cd had a anime made in 199X
@Neon2314 that isn't true. this japanese had a urban feel. the american had a rock feel. both go with conic games.
I've been looking for this one! Theres heaps of Sonic CD good endings on TH-cam, but the problem is, they're either the US version with the HORRIBLE sound track, or from Sonic Jam for Saturn, where the music comes in too early.

@Nuko_Giko Forever and always
japan version is glorious tbh
Sonic CD is my favorite sonic game
the music buffers if you play a rom in a certain emulator in the cutscenes
@TenchiUK
It's funny how this actually ended up happening.
I like the too Cool screen
Me too. Can all games end with them giving you a complement

3:06 is so stardust speedway
@ColeopterX Metal Sonic is cheap because of the insta kill laser. Robotnik better put that laser on another contraption.
Did these credits have a different font?
+AnimatedGalaxy looks like it. a much nicer one than the US version's IMO.
As far as the age-old soundtrack differences with Sonic CD goes, I have mixed feelings about both of them. Honestly, I felt that there was music in the North American version that worked better than the Japanese/European soundtrack and vice versa.
So this is just the custom version?
pc version doesn't have the build up to the credits and that annoys me to the point I stick with the mega cd version
Just mod it
Yeah, I've heard both US and JP/EU endings, and the US one is far better and a lot more tolerable. I do wish they kept the sound effects for the US ending though, could've been in the background while the music played.
This song sounds like a pokemon anime song lol
Is there a developer in the game named madin?
It's a bit late to reply, but, I think Majin was the nickname of one of the designers ;)
My guess is that Wikipedia got the information wrong. You MUST beat the game with all seven Time Stones to see the good ending.
my most favorite song in all of Sonic games. corny? yeah. but for once its not rock! YES
@TenchiUK and ur dream came true a couple years later!
My copy of sonic cd got stuck on the white screen.
