Jesus Christ some of the boss battles in this are ridiculously hard

This is definitely the hardest 2D Sonic yet

[TheAggroCraig]

The only signed ones are for PC iirc, as part of the apology.

Didn't the stream the other day show them signing ps4 and Xbox copies?

 

[Zonic]

The only signed ones are for PC iirc, as part of the apology.

From what I heard, there'd be 26 signed copies, which could mean 8 or 9 for each system, but they said it'd be random & mostly the US only.

Video of them talking about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbqPX15G9_0#t=19m

 

[Frumix]

In with faux CRT mode.

Level design doesn't feel as tight as S3K but maybe I'm just not familiar with it yet as much as I am with that game.

 

[MaximumSpider]

Honestly debating on spending $20 on the Switch version...
I suck when it comes to temptation.

 

[Kinsei]

So Amy isn't in this game?

It seems not. She's a really odd omission since there's Sonic CD stuff in the game.

 

[Shahadan]

Oh my god it's instantly perfect

 

[RockmanBN]

5 Chaos Emeralds right now. Though I've gotten my first time out since Sandopolis when I was a kid. It was in

Spoiler

Flying Battery Act 2. Is it me or does it take a while to beat the boss?

 

[Lights and Waves]

Poop. Ok, thank you!

Just switch country, they accepted my card unlike Australia

 

[Flousn]

Never played the old Sonic Games except CD on mobile (which i liked) but 20€ for a rather short game seems just a little bit much right now.
Just got Hellblade and will definatly buy Observer.
Argh, what to do?!?!

You in NA?

How do you switch countries? Region option just shows, Europe, America, Japan and Australia to me.

 

[Shahadan]

You in NA?

France, regular master card. Don't know if that helps.

In any case, holy shit at the immediate happiness. Dat first stage. Dem

with the same controls from back then ;_;
How couldn't they get it right for so long

 

[Rlan]

Out in Australia.

 

[Berordn]

Do we know if Mania is a single SKU on Switch? Very tempted to try and grab it from another region early.

 

[serenewarfare]

Do other regions have English on Switch?

About to buy this Russian version if so.

 

[Tsunamo]

Played so much of it for so long. It's so so good.

I haven't been this excited playing a new Sonic since Generations.

And some of the references/nods to other Sonic games chucked in there are amazing, there's so many of them. In particular the

Spoiler

Mean Bean Machine boss battle

had me freaking out that they did that.

In regards to folks mentioning length i've been playing for about 7 hours and I still haven't beat it. It's extremely meaty. Definitely feel i've got my $20 worth in content.

On the nintendo account website, you select a country, then you connect to the eshop normally

Russian version has the usual languages, english included

Thx for the tip, for 9,50€ I pulled the trigger.

 

[andymcc]

Do it!

There's still no port of S3&k in sight, so I'd say this as good a place as any to hop in.

I'd say it's a better starting place than S&K3 as it has a better selection of levels

Bah, my card doesn't work.

I will be shocked if this fucking thing doesn't show up somewhere.

I will be shocked if this fucking thing doesn't show up somewhere.

The release date trailer showed some sort of trash compactor. I'd be disappointed if there wasn't one of those damn barrels in there.

 

[mrk8885]

Anyone having luck with a US CC on the Russia eShop?

 

[Zonic]

I will be shocked if this fucking thing doesn't show up somewhere.

Watch it be part of the final level or boss.

 

[Interface23]

Anyone having luck with a US CC on the Russia eShop?

Not I and I guess eshop cards don't exist online

Pffft.

I've lived through the Game Gear games. I ain't scurred.

 

[emiliano]

I don't have a pro controller on switch, how much do you think would be a deal breaker not being able to use a real digital dpad on this game?
I'm still undecided between switch and PS4.

Decisions. Decisions.

 

[Shahadan]

Game over in Chemical Zone because of those fucking cubes, some things never change :lol:

These two don't fit together.

IMO you're even better off with the joycon pad than the Pro Pad dpad.

The pro digital dpad is the worst dpad ever

This game is so good it's making me cry
