The remains of the scrapped level Hidden Palace Zone, found by hacking the final ROM of Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

Often when a video game struggles to meet deadlines, planned features need to be scrapped before they're fully finished in order to get the rest of the game in stores by a certain date. However, in many circumstances the data is not removed from the game, instead simply being "turned off" and therefore is unable to be accessed through traditional means. Luckily, with the aid of modern technology we are able to take games apart and find these lost features.

This category documents all of these hidden tidbits found in the final release versions of Sonic the Hedgehog games, be it unused graphics, music, or otherwise.
