The power of Wii points, you can buy the master system & the genesis games again and re-live a happier time!
As I was playing it made me think of this thread. when you played this game, what was the hardest part? Or a tip to share?, favorite level? Most difficult?

Oh man, the original Sonic the Hedgehog.
I mostly play it when it's in compilations, along with the second game. It's also in Sonic Generations. It's a fun game, but after playing Generations, the original feels a bit slow. Oh and I've never finished it. I always get stuck and give up, then go back to Sonic 2, which I've finished several times.

It's been awhile since I've gotten any further than the marble zone. I think I got upto one of the later zones, but I can't recall which one.
Now, well... Like I said, I can't get any further than the marble zone due to my rather short attention span. I can't play anything for more than half an hour without getting bored. There's been some exeptions, however.
Hrm, maybe I should give Sonic another go. Maybe I'll get further than the second zone this time.

Call me crazy, but it was only a couple of months ago that I've finally beaten all of Sonic 1 for the first time in my life...yay for me!

Hmph! Just you wait, one of these days, I'll finish it!

Yeah, I get that short attention span when playing the classics as well. Sonic 1 and 2 were those titles that did it for me.

I'm no dork....lol
Oh, forgot to mention, I beaten Sonic 1 using a Nintendo DS, the game is called Sonic Classic Collection. No cheat codes work on that game.

Maaaan forget that, it's not Sonic without using a cheat code once in a while. I used to collect all the emeralds , then level select to final Zone and won, wohoo. That was on a very lazy day.
Best thing on the Wii is, it has the same glitches in Starlight Zone & Scarp Brain Zone have where Sonic, "magically" dies

Just a reminder for the sake of fairness that it's also available on your friendly PSN and XBL stores.

I think you've confused the words "Best" and "Worst" there. A good glitch is one in which the game quickly realises it's mistake and fixes it quickly, all the while being humorous about it's own mess up, such as this from Beautiful Kataamari: [youtube]GVW_3ybT-5c[/youtube]
