[edit] Name origin?

Could we consider this game to be called Mega collection because of the [Mega Drive] name in territories besides North America?

  • I thought of that too. Should it be in the article?. --Libertyernie2 01:28, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
  • That's speculative and original research, so no. Ace of Sevens 01:36, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sonic Mega Collection Plus

Is there any reason Sonic Mega Collection Plus is a separate article? It's mostly the same. We could easily make it a section in this article with its own infobox and a paragraph about what was added. Ace of Sevens 19:26, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I agree, it doesn't seem to warrant an additional article. Hyper Anthony 18:43, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Agree. Nothing else more to be said.

I just merged the article now. This is my first merge, so please tell me if I screwed up on something! CJ 21:28, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

You forgot to merge in the categories and left a bit of redundant info, but not bad. I fixed it up a bit. Ace of Sevens 22:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Worth Upgrading to SMC+

I have SMC, and was wondering if it was worth getting SMC+. I am considering getting it and Gems so as to have as many Sonic games as possible.

It adds six Game Gear games and two Genesis games, as it says on the page. I haven't played those much, so I can't really say. --Libertyernie2 16:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
Sonic Adventure DX has all 12 Sonic Game Gear games. Sonic Mega Collection+ has only 6. So I'd keep the GameCube version of Sonic Mega Collection, and buy Sonic Adventure DX. Mega Man 5 30 June 2007 (UTC)
You have to unlock the games though, so it would be very hard. Libertyernie2 13:14, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Yes, but at least all 12 are included. And the first 6 or 7 aren't very hard to unlock. Mega Man 5 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sonic the Hedgehog

What's the difference between the American and Japanese versions? I used a code to see the American version but I didn't notice any difference. YuckieDuck 15:06, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

The clouds in GHZ move in the Japanese version, and there are a few other fancy effects too. They're really not that different. --Libertyernie2 18:11, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Massive Lag

Did anybody experience an almost untolerable amount of lag while getting the a Chaos Emerald in Sonic 3 (its the one that's on the upper-left on the diagram, the X below:

 x 0 0 
0 0 0 0

While getting the last 20 or so blue spheres, the frame started to slow down, and with the last 5 or so, the amount of time between each sphere extended to seconds. I thought it froze for a few seconds, since it just sat there at one point for at least 5 seconds.

This is why it took me forever to get the last emerald, as it transitions from super fast to unbelievably slow in a short period of time. I'm hoping this isn't normal. BirdValiant 19:54, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Released in North America first

This product (i.e. the package, not the individual games) was released in North America first, so I thought it would count as an American game and the Template:Nihongo could be left out. Megata Sanshiro (talk) 22:23, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
