- Back to: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (8-bit).
Version comparisons
Tails is captured at a different time of day in the introduction sequence. On the Game Gear, Eggman swoops down and captures Tails, while on the Master System he has already been caught. The music for Scrambled Egg Zone plays during this cutscene, while the music that played here in the Master System version is used for the title screen.
Title cards have been squashed to fit the Game Gear's resolution.
The level select screen has been optimised for both platforms. The colour scheme is also different.

The ending music is different: the Master System game uses a sad-sounding song in both endings, whereas the Game Gear version uses more upbeat music for the good ending.
