{{Bob|bobscreen=G_title_l.gif|publisher=Sega|developer=Sonic Team|system=Sony PlayStation 2]] / [[Nintendo Gamecube|europe=October 7, 2005|usa=August 16, 2005|japan=August 11, 2005|genre=Compilation|seealso=Sonic Mega Collection}} Sonic Gems Collection is a compilation containing:

• Sonic the Hedgehog CD (Sega CD, port of PC version)
• Sonic the Fighters (Arcade, ported by Sega AM2)
• Sonic R (Sega Saturn, port of PC version)

Sonic R's multiplayer mode will be reduced to two players from the possible four on the PC version. As well, the collection contains the six Game Gear games that were not in Sonic Mega Collection Plus, which are:

• Sonic the Hedgehog 2
• Sonic Spinball
• Sonic Triple Trouble
• Sonic Drift 2
• Tails' Skypatrol
• Tails Adventure

Sonic Drift 2 will keep its multiplayer mode. Also, there are a few hidden games, with the only ones thus far confirmed being all three Streets of Rage titles, both Vectorman titles and Bonanza Brothers. The American version of Gems Collection will not have Streets of Rage. The compilation is a Nintendo Gamecube exclusive in the United States, but will be also released on Sony PlayStation 2 in Europe and Japan. It will retail for $29.99 in the United States.

The US version of the game has the US soundtrack for Sonic CD, whilst the European and Japanese versions have the Japanese/UK soundtracks. However, the US version of the game still has the Japanese soundtrack on the disc, and is currently being hacked so that you can listen to either soundtrack.
