I really like all the sprite work in this game, especially Sonic and Robotnik/Eggman's sprites. I would definitely buy this game if it ever does end up being remade or republished. It's like a Deathrun game.
For a 1993 release, this game looks and sounds aweosome, but at the same time, it looks too short, but that may be because the game looks really good and was invested more time in that department, not even Saturn games look like this.
maybe its because it was an arcade title and those usually dont play by the same length rules as a console game? lol they by design are short experiences made to eat up pocket change
LOL, you win this one... nah, just kidding, if you're talking about games like Dig Dug, yeah, you're right, but what about beat em' up games, spaceship shooter games and fighting games from the 90s and forwards... oh, and shooters on rails, those aren't that short. And this game is from 1993, my point wasn't that this game is short because whatever, it is that the game is stuning looking... but then again, is the same year that Daytona U.S.A. was released. And now i ask, why wasn't this game expanded and released for the Saturn? It would've made perfect sense and better than that Sonic 3D Blast we got.
if sonic dies, eggman will have no purpose in life. so, eggman makes his traps intentionally easy for sonic to be able to defeat them. so by eggs' standards, this is _fuckin hardcore_
It could have, but the way it was set up makes it clear there will never be a console release. If they can find a way to properly emulate the trackball system, it may be possible.
Better idea: fire Iizuka, erase modern Sonic and every related thing about him, hire the Mania Team as the new official Sonic Team and finally only make 2D Classic Sonic games
ikagura No, that’s just... that’s just blocking out a style that has some amazing potential. They could still make 3D Sonic games, but they could try not rushing them.
honestly that's what I was thinking. maybe like simplified port would have been decent. cuz sonic 3D blast was like the start of the garbage bag legacy for me.
Sonic has fallen! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has been lifted! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has been eaten by a machine! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has almost fallen! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic broke something! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has beaten the game! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic's new saying! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has defeated Eggman! WWWAAAHHH!!! Somebody is dead... WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has dropped his Chilli Dog! WWWAAAHHH!!! Sonic has lost all the Chaos Emeralds! wah.
I just realized. If Eggman set his base to self destruct in 20 seconds and he was able to run to the exit within that timeframe, why did he think sonic would fail to exit within the same timeframe?
I would’ve said he must’ve made an exit that only he knew about and got to, and he was able to make a quick getaway in that weird half ball thing he rides in, but that’s just my speculation
Makes me wonder. How would people react if this game were on consoles like the Sega Saturn? Would people like it? Would people hate it? Or would they find it as a mixed bag?
xbox.gamespy.com/articles/654/654750p2.html Naka: We did think about adding it to Gems Collection, though, but we couldn't implement it in the end because the game used a trackball control scheme that is very, very difficult to replicate with a standard controller.
Not gonna lie, this honestly looks fun. Edit: Now with Ray and Mighty confirmed for Sonic Mania Plus, I wonder if Sega will decide to make a translated copy of this game for newer consoles.
U1GX they’d have to find a way to emulate the trackball, or include a trackball attachment for a modern system/pc. They aren’t easy to come by unless if you want to pay 100+ dollars. I think it would be nice to see a smaller release of the game (possibly translated) in arcades like Dave and busters, or Craig’s cruisers. The only thing is Sega won’t probably make as much money as they put in to re-release the game. It would be nice to see it go on a system with 360 joystick control for the maximum enjoyability.
Gavin Chuley and Miles the red fox Is it necessary to have a trackball? I think joysticks would be just fine. Heck I wouldn't mind a remaster of this game, same artstyle but more levels.
This eggman/robotnick is the one I like the most because of how angry and menacing yet smart and cunning he is, like these are the most violent traps I’ve ever seen in a sonic game and I love it, this is the kinda thing you’d expect eggman to ACTUALLY do to kill sonic
Ohgawd, that ending escape scene at 13:22 Even as a kid, where everything Sonic-related was *_cool_* to me, I would have looked at this and been like. _"...is this 'cool'?"_ I can forgive the classic stubby/chubby design, the _"cool blue dude with attitude"-face_ and overly exaggerated _"in your face"_ perspective on the animation, but... when you line *3* such characters up and have them run in perfect sync. Awkward.
I read about this game on a sonic fansite over a dialup connection and wondered what it would be like to play it. Almost a decade and a half later, I've completely forgotten about it until now. I never thought I'd actually get to see this played. A w e s o m e What a clever adaptation! Certainly has that classic arcade vibe to it.
The person playing this is really good. You gotta play it with that rolling ball controller. I really love how detailed all the little animations for this game are. -
It is the first voice acted classic Sonic game. Edit: never mind, it could be the Sonic cosmo fighter mini game or the sonic cop patrol or the sega popcorn machine.
Way to go, I just played Sonic 1 again, this game is like Sonic CD, an ovni which should deserve praise for its way of gaming. Speed effect today would make it awesome...
6:45 - That theme sounds familiar... WAIT! That's the bonus stage music from Sonic Mania Plus! The pinball stages!! They remixed a track from SegaSonic?! Holy shit!!
I really like all the sprite work in this game, especially Sonic and Robotnik/Eggman's sprites. I would definitely buy this game if it ever does end up being remade or republished. It's like a Deathrun game.
msoza2 Sonic deathrun
Make it to while one player triggers the traps and you got me fucking sold
msoza2 Rococks deathrun!
So, I hope everyone enjoyed your tour on Isla de Las Pingas.
Viva Las Pingas!
You can't fool me I know spanish. Isla de las Pingas means Island of the Pingas!
Best island name ever.
AKA SATAN ISLAND
WAAAAAH!

Have you played Truxton?
a single exception. check like nearly every other arcade game lmao

Sega's arcade hardware was much more powerful than their home consoles.
8:10 THAT WAS THE BEST TRAP ROBOTNIK HAS EVER MADE
300 iq at its finest
Sir, had you never made this comment, I would not have noticed xD
Looks like something Scratch would make. :D
Makes me think of Wile E. Coyote 😁
The best solutions to life's problems are often the simplest.
A lot of the traps on this island are quite violent, even by eggman’s standards I’ve noticed
kitestar And they don't just fall off the stage, they actually die.
Ghost Hunter Mike CHILDHOOD RUINED
Well he does want sonic to be dead
if sonic dies, eggman will have no purpose in life. so, eggman makes his traps intentionally easy for sonic to be able to defeat them.
so by eggs' standards, this is _fuckin hardcore_
kitestar same, the good doctor's out for blood in this game.
WAAAAAAH
Hey hey! Its me!
Came to the comments specifically to look for this after like 20 seconds. Was not disappointed.
UWAH UH!
ULEULEULEULEULE WAHHHH!
*WAOW!*
InvaderNoa HYEEEEE
Why this game never made it to the Saturn or in any sonic collections is beyond me... this looks so dam cool!
It could have, but the way it was set up makes it clear there will never be a console release. If they can find a way to properly emulate the trackball system, it may be possible.
And it's a Japanese exclusive.
Q. McHale It's possible using a joystick or mouse for PC.
If they want. To make it easier on controls they might have to juat change it sp joysticks are use instead of a trackball.
They planned it for gems collection but couldn’t get the trackball controls just right
*_"UWAAAAAAAH!!!!"_*
Rad Nik the Axolotl stop crying
I just realized. The map icons are the same ones from the final boss of Sonic Mania! The references from that game never end XD
Your right I never noticed that nicely spotted
Because the Mania Team cared about continuity and references of the old game unlike the Sonic Team who rehashed the GREEN HILL ZONE over and over
ikagura At this point Sonic Team’s executive should hire the Mania Team.
Better idea: fire Iizuka, erase modern Sonic and every related thing about him, hire the Mania Team as the new official Sonic Team and finally only make 2D Classic Sonic games
ikagura No, that’s just... that’s just blocking out a style that has some amazing potential. They could still make 3D Sonic games, but they could try not rushing them.
Eggman at his darkest and evilest.
Wat
SA2 would like a word.
Sonic 2 MS/GG would like a word
And fastest
First time seeing this game. Thought it was fan made, had no idea Sega made a Sonic game like this. It looks so polished and well done.
This WAS the nineties, though.
XenosapienOfMegiddo o n a f u c k i n g t r a c k b a l l
Because this game was never released outside Japan.
This is really what Sonic 3D blast should have been...
FireRat 16 yeah. It handled Red Zone, Adventures of Batman and Robin, Alien Soldier and Gunstar Heroes
This game looks challenging. I prefer Sonic 3D Blast.
It IS Sega Sonic
honestly that's what I was thinking. maybe like simplified port would have been decent. cuz sonic 3D blast was like the start of the garbage bag legacy for me.
King Zevon They both share the isometric view....which is not what Sonic ever needed
If not the coolest, this is actually the most difficoult Sonic game ever

Sonic sounds kind of like SpongeBob with a Japanese accent in this game.
*W A A A A A A H*
Jasoncrafter82 "I'm a quitter! WAAAAAAAAAAHHH!"
Jasoncrafter82 if
That can't be true. How do you know Sonic sounds like Spongebob?
Sonic's voice in this game is the same voice of Trunks from Dragon Ball Z
That still can't be true.
Sonic has fallen!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has been lifted!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has been eaten by a machine!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has almost fallen!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic broke something!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has beaten the game!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic's new saying!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has defeated Eggman!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Somebody is dead...
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has dropped his Chilli Dog!
WWWAAAHHH!!!
Sonic has lost all the Chaos Emeralds!
wah.
Must have been the reason he never spoke in Sonic Generations.
Oney: I'll kill ya.
Waluigi: I'm gonna end this man's whole career
I just realized. If Eggman set his base to self destruct in 20 seconds and he was able to run to the exit within that timeframe, why did he think sonic would fail to exit within the same timeframe?
StrongPuff Psssh, everybody knows Eggman is the fastest character. Just look at him run in the Genesis games!
Because for a man with an IQ of 300, Robotnik's an idiot.
I would’ve said he must’ve made an exit that only he knew about and got to, and he was able to make a quick getaway in that weird half ball thing he rides in, but that’s just my speculation
This game has copious amounts of screaming
Miscellaneo And Chorkie *WAAAAH*
Miscellaneo And Chorkie WAOUUUUU
HUUOOOOOOUOOAAH
So many ways to easily die. Must be Eggman's favourite game :p
This and Sonic Shuffle
Sonikku A And Sonic Lost World!
Here, the doc doesn't mess around
Good job man! 👍
BTW the controls look like a pain in the ass to master.
trackball.....try to use a trackball
I use the keyboard for general input and the mouse for fine-tuning
The Sonic franchise was sure experimental with it's characters back then...
For some reason I enjoy hearing sonic scream in this. QUWAAAAAHHHHH!!!!
I sense great Egginess in you!
Makes me wonder. How would people react if this game were on consoles like the Sega Saturn? Would people like it? Would people hate it? Or would they find it as a mixed bag?

I dont think so
@@AAhmou most times a person emulates this game they use a joystick and its usually wonky
13:02 Waaah!This Guy is faster than Sonic!
13:02
MilesPrower2017 and sonic 4
Leucaria NEVER SPEAK OF THAT TITLE!!!
sonic was standing still
Damon Turner hilariously enough I actually liked it... But yeah it did have its fair share of flaws tho LOL
The proof of Original Sonic being perfectly capable to speak is here :v
ShinZankuro and he's voiced by the same guy who voices Trunks, Takeshi Kusao
Angel Rivera Santana then came Kanemaru
ShinZankuro The second bit of proof would be the Sonic cartoons, TAOSTH and SATAM
*CUAAAAAAAAAHH*
Sonic CD?
Take a shot everytime there is a scripted scene where sonic screams
*Hicc* Huurrgghk! WhaaaaAaaAat about ThEEeEE sHoooTttzzz... I Neeeehverrr Drinnk *Hicc*
*now look at what you have done you monster*
Notice how fast he's going in this 3D game. It seems almost perfect.
SuperGalaxyMedia it's a speedrun. A computer frame perfect inputs is doing this
Nope... its a dude playingwith the keyboard... even me can play like that :v lol its
This game it is almost perfect for a 3d sonic game... the way it controls and stuff... but it needs precision
@Naji Lacey Not all Speedruns are TAS.
Naji Lacey its not TAS
Today’s gameplay is brought to you by the letter W, as in *WAAAAAAAAH!!!*
CloudySkies17695 !!!HAAAAAAAAAAAAW
coolest sonic game ever, 10/10
SEGA must have outdone themselves :)
VTH Universe Nightskyline 2016 is so cute the character reactions movements and voices haha
Eggman says
TE MATARE SONIKKU
I love how the characters are actually really expressive in this game instead of not having any expression on his face whatsoever
This eggman/robotnick is the one I like the most because of how angry and menacing yet smart and cunning he is, like these are the most violent traps I’ve ever seen in a sonic game and I love it, this is the kinda thing you’d expect eggman to ACTUALLY do to kill sonic
Also, turned on captions... did Eggman just swear!? He was doing that before Shadow made it edgy AF.
It's merely a rough (And inaccurate) translation, if you even care at this point.
He really said "doggonit"
Ohgawd, that ending escape scene at 13:22
Even as a kid, where everything Sonic-related was *_cool_* to me, I would have looked at this and been like. _"...is this 'cool'?"_
I can forgive the classic stubby/chubby design, the _"cool blue dude with attitude"-face_ and overly exaggerated _"in your face"_ perspective on the animation, but... when you line *3* such characters up and have them run in perfect sync. Awkward.
Yeah it's a general rule of animation to offset character run cycles
Trackball acrade consoles where so hard to control back in the day, but this is a major blast to the past.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Bangles Otter stop crying

What a clever adaptation! Certainly has that classic arcade vibe to it.
6:15
Listen carefully to the BGM. Sonic Mania Plus remixes it for the pinball minigame!
It was annoying me wondering why that tune sounded familiar.
The person playing this is really good. You gotta play it with that rolling ball controller.
I really love how detailed all the little animations for this game are. -
WAHHHHHHHHH
Boo Talks stop crying
There are unused sprites for this game that were meant to localize Eggman into the SATAM Robotnik (y'know, War Minister Julian).
That scream though...WWWAAAAHHH
ultimate Gamer WAAAAAAAAAAH
Stop crying
Eggman said "DAMMIT!"
"This is the END!"
this game beat shadow the hedgehog.
What's more annoying?
Classic Sonic's "WAAAAAAAHH"?
Or Modern Sonic's "WOO"?
This was so fucking well made how did this not make it into the franchise!!??
Why the hell was this game made with a trackball? Why couldn't it have worked with a regular joystick?
Different time, dude.
Medachod Or just Japan.
MarioTube101 made it more exciting
Just to make it Gimicky
It was an arcade game, that's the reason. Based on the Sega System 32 motherboard architecture.
I am sad the Saturn never got this.
Medachod It was definitely possible considering this is a 2D intensive game, and the Saturn was very good with 2D
Sonic: *WAAAAAAH*
Walaweegee: *WWWWAAAAAAAAA*
Sonic: (W) *AAAAAHHHHHHHH!*
For an arcade game this has a surprisingly better story than I thought. It kinda flows like Sonic 3
Sonic Souls
Danhanado GIT GUD
6:15
This song was used in the Sonic Mania Plus Spinball thingy. Where you go the stars of the checkpoint.
2:53 UI UI UI UI UI UI UI UI UI UI UI ( one milion of uies later ) WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
The music in this game absolutely slaps
So much WHAAAA!
WAAAAAAH 8O
Pikminfan67 stop crying
What skill! You're a master at this game!
Strange how the escape scenes show Ray and Mighty although there isnt 3 players
Jacen Hale maybe they were held hostage
Sonic vored them until the end of the game.
The Goblin Cometh LOL
Mighty and ray were playable in the game too and in tribute to this they will be playable in the next dlc of Sonic mania
Is this the first voice acted Sonic game!?!?
It is the first voice acted classic Sonic game.
Edit: never mind, it could be the Sonic cosmo fighter mini game or the sonic cop patrol or the sega popcorn machine.
Fredy Parra I thought Sonic CD was
William Duncombe I researched right now and Sonic CD came out the same year as Sega Sonic the hedgehog
Fredy Parra Sonic CD came one month earlier than Segasonic
William Duncombe oh well looks like I did my research wrong, thanks for correcting me.
How do you even play a sonic game like that
With a track ball.
Wow, that was outstanding!!
Sonic: WAAAA
Me: BE QUITE!
I was today years old when I found out the music in Trap Tower was reused in Mania Plus's Encore mode bonus stage.
t o d a y y e a r s o l d .
I kinda want to play this with English voices now.
14:41 I think he said something like "I should've stayed at home"
Welcome back to the land of the living, everyone.
Jeez laweez. This game has a lot of seriously impressive sprite animation!
この旧作ソニック声が少年トランクスそのままですね。サイヤ人になれそうwwww
i love how at 5:26 the tornados following sonic are just like "oh well"
1:56 When you haven't enough rings Eggman laughs.
"Sonic I want to play a game." - Saw
13:22 you're cool when you run away without any emotion or flinching despite shit is blowing up behind you and you give no fucks
Remember, cool guys don't look at explosions.
Pre-rendered graphics at its finest.👌🏼
the music reminds me sonic spinball
Micaela :D reminds me of comix zone
Riolu a mixture i'd say
Way to go, I just played Sonic 1 again, this game is like Sonic CD, an ovni which should deserve praise for its way of gaming. Speed effect today would make it awesome...
Nobody:
Sonic: WAAAAAAAH!
This game looks like so much fun!
Classic Sonic: WAHHH!!!
Take a drink every time you hear sonic say **WAAAAAAH**
This would be a nice mobile game to play.
Colin Minkler they should make
an hd version for handheld consoles
Eshop maybe?
I would have love this game as a kid
This game actually looks kinda cool to play
This could've made a great Sonic SatAM universe game had it used those unused SatAM sprites...
Kind of amusing to watch tbh good video
And then Sonic Spinball started
Man, I wish this had gotten a US release. 9 year old Josh would have lost his collective mind playing this in arcades.
RUN SONIC RUN DE TOWER IS EXPLODE
6:45 - That theme sounds familiar...
WAIT! That's the bonus stage music from Sonic Mania Plus! The pinball stages!!
They remixed a track from SegaSonic?! Holy shit!!
Because Mania is made by people who cares
Ouaaaah
i love how expresive sonic is.
also WAHHHHHHH
12:54 eggman watch your mouth!
th-cam.com/video/QqxqaFT9xcM/w-d-xo.html
All the comments here are Sonic screaming “WAAAAAAAAH!”
if they had an hd version of this thats has the camera zoomed out
with presice movment I would get it
BlitzWolfer this was a trackball movement game expect that
i know but they could make the controls for analog support
BlitzWolfer This game is better with a trackball. You can really control how fast you go. With an analog stick you only have one speed.
The music for this game is amazing!
It's Dragon's Lair: Sonic Edition
If it was directed by Michael Bay
came for the thumbnail
not even disappointed
Whaaaaa!!! Lol
"That one Sonic game that starts off with Robotnik winning and saying 'Fuck you, Sonic!'"
This game actually had a configuration menu?
Almost all arcade games have a configuration menu (usually called Service Mode)
I love it when sonic goes “WAAAAHHHH” when he falls
ARC ? arcade ? or its another console ?
Arcade
