How come you Sonicfags never talk about the Sonic GameGear games? I've been playing through all of them for the first time, and many of them are surprisingly fun. In fact, Sonic 1 and Sonic Triple Trouble are good enough that I would recommend them to anyone who is a fan of the series, and wants to try something new from the classic era that's not the genesis games. Shame about the small screen of the GG though.

Also, has anyone here played Tails Adventure?
>>
because they are slow as shit

sonic drift 2 is legit good tho
>>
too difficult for modern sonic fags
>>
>>343691674
I never really found the Game Gear titles that interesting. I haven't played them in a long time too. The only ones I would play are Sonic Chaos and Sonic Triple Trouble. The others are inferior versions of Mega Drive games and mediocre spinoffs.

I like Sonic Labyrinth and Tail's Adventure

Sonic 2 is my favorite Sonic game

I think Sonic 3 & Knuckles is extremely overrated, it's ok but it's not THE BEST FUCKING THING IN THE GODDAMN UNIVERSE


Sonic Adventure 1>Sonic Adventure 2


Sonic Advance 2>1>3


I found Sonic and the Secret Rings pretty memorable and liked the game in a whole but it had shitty motion control mechanics that could have been better, it felt more like a gamecube game than a Wii game.
Sonic Unleashed doesn't deserve all the hate it gets, the werehog stuff was fine but there was too much of it overshadowing the day stages, overall I think it was pretty decent and all the medals were nice to collect.
I never liked rush or battle.
Mean Bean Machine is great.
Sonic the fighters was fantastic.
Shadow the Hedgehog is also a very memorable game to me, I enjoyed the story and the gameplay.
Sonic 06 is alright if you completely ignore the story/cutscenes but the game is buggy as fuck.
I wish there was more platforming involved with sonic now, like the game gear games.
Oh and Sonic CD US track is better than the EU/JP track.

Fight me

>Also, has anyone here played Tails Adventure?
Yes, but only because it came as a bonus game in Sonic Adventure DX.

I do own a Game Gear though.
>>
>>343691674
Because it's better to play the superior Master System versions.
>>
Because they fucking suck and no one had a gamegear, thats why

no, people had them, played them and then wondered why they weren't playing Gameboy. Mom was always playing fucking Tetris though.

when was the last time your parents were playing a console or handheld just for one game a whole bunch? my mom did it with Tetris and Mario, that was it afterwards.

>>343693480
Dunno if it was because it was the only game i had as a kid, but somehow was able to beat that game
Tails died though

Sonic 2 for the Master System/Game Gear was weird, and in a way that I can't really pinpoint. I also like how each stage intro card uses sprites from the Genesis version of Sonic 2, and show Tails with Sonic even though he isn't playable.

Sonic Chaos was ok, Sonic's sprite was hideous though. Gigapolis Zone had some pretty cool looking graphics. Too bad the game is so easy to beat.

Sonic Triple Trouble was good, but a bit bloated with having Knack the Weasel too. He might as well never appeared, since you only fight him in special stages.

He's an autismo, but ClementJ64's Sanic Game Gear lps are pretty cozy to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObS4Z51NlAs&index=20&list=PLxEned0Y6VA4_t9UUBErgZX2nvq7eqJbi

I formed these opinions on my own over 7 years ago though have revised a few, nothing really changed though

I may give rush another attempt since It's been quite a few years and I've only played it once

Sonic 1 and 2 are much better on Master System compared to the Game Gear's screen crunch rendering them almost unplayable due to limited visibility. But I agree, some of the 8-bit Sonic games do deserve more attention than they're usually given.

See look at this and that puny gameboy. Sega truely does what nintendont.

>>343693230
>thought Sonic and the Secret Rings had redeeming qualities
This is how I know you played it. It wasn't even close to being the worst Sonic game.
All of your opinions are probably much more valid than the shitposters' here who don't play games.

GG Sonic games were the shit. Anyone play Jurassic Park on GG? That shit was better than the Genesis version.

They're just unmemorable, when you look at the whole series, you just kinda pass them by. Tails' Adventure and Triple Trouble are the only 2 really worth bringing up

This was a good thing. The bosses were already simple enough that you should be able to learn the pattern just fine. The games where he can always snag one ring are pretty bullshit.

Are there any youtubers that arent classic autists and can enjoy a wide range of the series? I already watch cobanermani and hes great but I have no one else who is interested in sonic
>>
>>343695336
The problem is that this renders the bosses into trial and error, and the game isn't even generous with extra lives to begin with. Aside from that and that third act of Green Hills being utter bullshit, I genuinely like Sonic 2... well, the Master System version anyway.

Cobi's annoying as fuck. He constantly screams and shoots annoying quips, most importantly however he plays like shit. Whenever there's a game with a lot of different things to it, he just wants to play through it the most basic way he can. Still one of the few good sonic youtubers though
>>
>>343695874
Trial and error is the foundation of the 8 and 16-bit eras. And that's not even completely what it is. Most bosses you can stand back from and observe before leaping in to attack. Watching and learning before diving in is not trial and error.

Actually, one of the things I like about Green Hills Zone is that you can easily farm lives in one of the acts. I think you can get 4 lives, then just die and get another 3 pretty quickly.

Which was good because Sonic 2 for the Gamegear is one of the hardest Sonic games out there. That final boss almost got me game over. At least there are no bottomless pit in any levels of the game.
>>
>>343695897
I already do, i just dont have any friends who care about sonic and most people just suck sonic 3s dick and call it a day.

>>343695981
Same here, lost world and boom (games) were rough but still...I dont have anyone to play advance or rush with. or go through adventure or unleashed.

>>343696064
True hes retarded and I dont like all the innuendo he puts when hes supposedly a kid friendly youtuber. I dont know why hes talking about sex and big asses when i imagine theres kids 7-10 watching him. But i still like him, hes entertaining, and hes pretty fair on all things sonic.

Were you really able to find the emeralds without any guide as a child? The locations for some of them were cryptic as fuck.

First time I beat this game as a child after numerous failed attempts I got the bad ending and it legit shocked me to see that Tails was killed off. I know it's an alternate ending and it's just an implication, but I wasn't expecting that. At all.

Yes. I figured out they were all in Act 2's, so I just scoured there. Also, it was the only game I had on Game Gear.
>>
>>343695892
>Sonic Advance 2>1>3
But he's right though

I will say that 1 is exceptionally good and that proper use of the Chaos Emeralds would have put it on par with Sonic 2 and 3K

Triple Trouble is also really good. Were it on the genesis, it could be a legit Sonic 4

i remember i borrowed my friends gamegear in like elementary school. i always played it on the bus and the game i played was some roadrunner game with the coyote. remember it needed like 6 fucking batteries
