Sonic 2 Prototype Development Timeline

Information

This table operates under the assumption that the Nick Arcade proto and the Sega Visions '92 proto are one and the same, as there is no evidence to suggest otherwise. Likewise, it assumes that the title screen pictured in the Sonic 2 manual is that of Beta 4.

Betas 1 through 3 are not within our possession (yet) so I didn't bother adding empty columns.

Sonic 3 Prototype Development Timeline

Yeah I'm going there.

Information

The S&K 0525 prototype will be examined while locked on to Sonic 3 final as dumped (it's a garbled mess otherwise as they hadn't finished splitting it). For reference, all of these were from 1994.
