Sonic the Hedgehog was one of the games adapted for release in arcades using both MegaPlay and MegaTech technology.

The MegaTech version is essentially the same as the Mega Drive game. The first two revisions of Sonic the Hedgehog have been used in various machines and cheat codes still work. Also, like all MegaTech games there is a time limit on how long the game can be played and high score table on the top screen. The time limit can be increased by inserting quarters.

The MegaPlay version has a large number of differences from the Mega Drive game. 1-ups have no effect and continues are increased by inserting quarters. There are also only four Zones: Green Hill Zone, Spring Yard Zone, Starlight Zone, and Scrap Brain Zone (which is missing it's final act). Special Stages are also missing and jumping into the Giant Rings only cause you to dissapear. The credit roll is not used. You are can also enter your intials on the High Score screen if you get a game over, either by running out of lives or finishing the game. There is also a strictly enforced time limit unique to each level. If the level isn't completed by that time you will die and the timer will be reset.
