3DS version has better physics and momentum which makes controls and parkour so much better, but worse level design due to overabundance of gimmicks. If only the two versions could mix and match, it might genuinely be a good Sonic game.
Take out the bad gimmick areas of Lost World 3DS and zoom out the 2D sections' camera (like it already does when you use the Drill Wisp) and boom, pretty good Sonic game there.
2:51 you absolutely can. After releasing a fully charged spindash try holding the Y button again. Not only will the spindash last forever, but you'll be allowed to jump and double jump while maintaining the spin dash on landing. So yeah, it's even more versatile than the Wii-U spindash
@@playbossthebest936 well the thing is the Y button is mapped to the bounce as well having both movement mapped to the same button actually prevents this.
@@Vmeg17 ...no it doesn't. It's not a drop dash, hold the button before and during the jump, just like in the Wii-U version it will work (just never release the Y button and you're golden)
@@Vmeg17the infinite spindash is present in the 3DS ver and it’s leagues better too cuz you can double jump with it and keep the spindash, you was spreading misinfo bro
I'm sorry what????? You are wrong about the spindash because you can jump AND continue after landing on the 3ds ver. ... Did we even play the same game????
7:00 the 3ds version also introduced the Grey Quake as an exclusive wisp to it, really the only wisps the 3ds version has in common with the wii u version are Laser, Drill, and Asteroid
My only complaint is that I feel the story section shouldn't have been a win for either of the games, since I feel compressed cutscenes in the 3ds version wasn't big enough of a difference. Other than that, I loved this video, I subscribed :)
I started playing Sonic Lost World (3DS) and it's really fun and challenging (I didn't play the Wii U/PC version of the game because I don't usually play steam games and I don't own a Wii U)
I have beat the 3ds version with all chaos emeralds on real hardware and I can say that its slightly overhated playing it on real hardware is better than on an emulator also idk if you intentionally didn't add this but the 3ds has an entire hard more campaign that you can access after beating the game by pressing y on the world map also lost world is my favorite sonic game don't question it
I am of the minority that I love Lost World because how well they gave us a Sonic that feels nice to use. The parkour gimmick was so underutilized but was something fun and different for Sonic that I wished they brought it back for Frontiers, especially that game with its open zone exploration. Besides that, I don't like that this was trying to be Mario Galaxy or a Classic Sonic in 3D with Galaxy gimmicks. If that makes sense.
I have a love hate relationship with Sonic lost world 3DS as it was my first 3DS game I ever owned A bunch of the levels are genuinely fun to play, but the game would’ve worked better with the levels being shorter and certainly removing enemies like the worm and the turtle tank who both take an eternity to kill (even with all 7 chaos emeralds) And Lost world in my opinion had a not a single fun 2D stage. They were all too long and frustrating But as for the 3D levels had genuine fun parts here and there, but again most of it was too long, and some too gimmicky like you said
Honestly the best part of Sonic Lost World for 3ds is the addition of an unlock able hard mode, I don't know the stages in this hard mode just clicked with me more than the normal mode, maybe it's the fact you know what to expect alongside the unlocking of wisp powers adding to the stages to make them feel fresh. Either way the mode is definatly an interesting addition, I miss the hard modes that actually change the level design of the stage tbh.
ive def always preferred the wii u version, and admittedly its one of my favorite sonic games LOL while the parkour is less implemented than the 3DS version, the wii u version allows far more crazy stunts if you can get really good at the parkour and your timing with jumping off walls even when i was a kid and owned both versions, the wii u version always stuck with me more, while the 3DS version i absolutely dreaded
Personally, i wouldn't say the 3ds version is superior, but i don't the wii U version is superior either, because pretty much the only reason it has a point for story is because the cutscenes are in higher resolution & other then that, they're equal. So personally i'd say there is not really a superior or inferior version between the 2
something that wasn't mentioned about the 3ds part in the extra content section is the harder versions of all the levels in the base game, I've actually done all of them and good god i never want to do them again, it was singlehandedly the i absolutely loathe the 3ds version of lost world because they really thought "our level design in this game wasn't shitty enough so lets make it worse by making a harder version of the game"
i actually don't love Sonic Lost World, but i also don't hate it. Soooooo, i guess the inbetween exists. Apart from joking, the video is very good, THE MAN IS BACK 🗣🔥
3DS all the way! It feels more like a Sonic game. Much more smoother parkour, longer levels, better use of the wisps, better sense of speed, better controls(Special Stages aside) and better bosses(Especially the Final Boss) Edit: I also think the Wii U(or HD like this video calls it) version would even suck as a Mario game!
Personally I feel the 3DS version is superior because of the hardware it's on; it doesn't feel nearly as impressive on the Wii U than it does on the 3DS and I think the Wii U version under-delivers
I didn't like 3DS parkour, it was way to automated and stiff, HD parkour was a bit confusing at first but when you understand it then it feels great. Also I'm never going to replay 3DS stages, they were so fucking annoying.
My complaint is that they didn't take the parkour system and further evolve it and make it better. Combine an improved parkour system with the adventure style level design and controls and it could be perfect. Game is mediocre though and it can be quite frustrating to get through with is somewhat poor level design. Never played the 3DS version and I own the game on Steam. The music is great though as Lost world has a ton of great pieces
Bro did not seriously say the Wii U version controls better. Absolute L take, the turning is completely broken in that version. Yes you can continuously spindash but doing literally everything else is worse

And also rewrite the entire story and set the levels in far more unique settings.
@@ZorrotheArtistOr just take it out and have it be a more arcadey game with no cutscenes. Not sure if the story can be salvaged.
@@TheAbsol7448 It can, you just need to remove the entirety of the Deadly Six and do a little bit of rewriting for Eggman’s team up and betrayal.

I agree with your points, but you failed to consider that the PC version doesn't have most of the bonus content included in the Wii U version.
Actually it technically does as a modder actually managed to port the Yoshi's Island & Zelda DLC to the PC version of Lost World as a mod
Wii U had the Zelda DLC

Did you know that Sonic Adventure 2 did this first with the Rouge level "Mad Space"
I have a love hate relationship with Sonic lost world 3DS as it was my first 3DS game I ever owned
A bunch of the levels are genuinely fun to play, but the game would’ve worked better with the levels being shorter and certainly removing enemies like the worm and the turtle tank who both take an eternity to kill (even with all 7 chaos emeralds)

In the 3DS Version you CAN continue the Spindash after a Jump, EVEN after a double jump so I think in this aspect the 3DS Version is better.
Honestly the best part of Sonic Lost World for 3ds is the addition of an unlock able hard mode, I don't know the stages in this hard mode just clicked with me more than the normal mode, maybe it's the fact you know what to expect alongside the unlocking of wisp powers adding to the stages to make them feel fresh.

Just unlock super sonic and all these levels will become easier. It lets you jump higher and farther to get around troublesome-looking terrain

The Wii u is a more powerful console to the 3DS which makes it more pathetic in my opinion
What about the PC version? Apparently there is a completely seperate version on PC.

and the 3DS version is more explorative in design but overcomes it's stay.

it does control better, id rather have a tighter turning sonic than one that controls like the sensitivity is 100

@@Vmeg17 My best of wishes to you
There is no reason too get the 3ds version of lost world anymore beacuse you can just get the steam version on a steam deck right😉
They are two completely different games. The steam version is effectively the wii u version without motion controls.
But for the sections that use motion controlls are just with buttons and sticks now right?
And the 3ds version do not look that fun too me anyways. I am just not interested in that version im sorry😅
@@juliusjohansson-cl3gk
Neither version is particularly good. 3ds version has higher highs than the console version though.

They both kinda suck :v
Both are bad, never play this game, case closed (yes, im a hater)
