Revision as of 22:21, 3 October 2017
- For the PS2 and Xbox version see Sonic Mega Collection Plus.
Template:CompilationBob Sonic Mega Collection is a compilation of all the Sonic the Hedgehog Mega Drive/Genesis games for the Nintendo GameCube. It uses a Mega Drive/Genesis emulator developed under the supervision of Sonic Team. It also features high resolution instruction manual art, and comic book scans. Unfortunately, Sonic CD and Knuckles' Chaotix were not included due to emulation problems, and not due to size constraints as many believe. A updated version, Sonic Mega Collection Plus, was released for the Sony PlayStation 2 and Microsoft Xbox in 2004.
This was the first Sega game to open with the classic "SE-GA" chant since the early-late 90s' (Sonic 3D Blast has the "SEGA!!" scream), likely included due to the retro nature of the compilation. This game marks the first appearance of Cream the Rabbit. Artwork for her can be found in the extras section.
This is also the 1st time the secret unlockable game (Found when locking Sonic & Knuckles with Sonic 1) was named. It was listed as Blue Sphere.
