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. Not due to size constraints as many believe. A similar version, Sonic Mega Collection Plus, was released for the Sony Playstation 2 and Microsoft X-Box in 2004.

Sonic 2 Mega Collection code
In Sonic 2 sound test play 7E,7E,0,1,2,3,4. Then hit z and go to the title screen via the option screen. You should hear a weird version of Emerald Hill playing. The music in the game now has a fuzzy crackling sound added to them. I'm not sure what that sound is, but I think it might be left over music from an earlier version or just a glitch.
Sonic 3 glitch
Go to the Sonic 3 level select menu and enter any act one except for Angel Island or Icecap. Now hit z and go to title screen via the menu. Go back to the level select screen (you don't have to reenter the code, but you should enter debug mode) and go to special stage act 2 (the one that does not loop). Lose (it is quicker) and hold b until the level starts. Now play through act 1 of the level. When you reach act 2 it will be messed up. Use debug mode to explore the act.
Removed Content
When hacking into Sonic Mega Collection, one can find the entire European Sonic CD manual. Not only that, but a preview version has Sonic CD on the list of games to pick. On the same preview version, in the movies section, you can find "Sonic the Hedgehog Movie Part 1" and "Sonic the Hedgehog Movie Part 2", referring that the Sonic OVA was once in Mega Collection.
