    -The Spindash.
    -New Zones & Bosses.
    Cons:
    -No Saving.

    -It's Hard to even get into the Special Stages.

    Also, time travel in Sonic 2 wouldve been so cool, imagine seeing stuff like Chemical Plant Zone in the past or future. Also seeing Sonic with shaved legs have to be the most cursed thing ive seen in a while.

    18:42 I have that middle plug and play with the red controller, it's the first version of Sonic 2 I ever played, where I was introduced to not only Sonic, but video games in general! It also includes _Ecco the dolphin, The Ooze, Columns, Gain Ground_ and _Alex Kidd & The Enchanted Castle._ The nostalgia hits hard with that one, I remember always wanting to play it as a kid, being super excited. Now I have the mega drive classics on my Nintendo Switch, which is how I play it now as I can't find where the plug and play has gone but it really isn't as bad as he is making it sound.

    That footage of the original iOS Sonic 2 game is really cool to me as it’s like seeing part of my childhood again! I grew up playing that and Sonic 1, but I played it in an old iPad that really wasn’t good enough, so it ran at a similar speed to the 50hz PAL port of the original game. I haven’t seen that version in years though, so it’s cool to see it again!

    Hey, this is "Not So Official Sonic 2 Cartridge Box From Russia". You know, in some Russian small shops, who still sells some NES (to be more accurate, it is Dendy cartridges), Sega Mega Drive and even GBA cartridges, you can easily find this kind of things. I personally saw boxes and cartridges of Sonic Megamix, Sonic Jam 6 and Sonic Boom (that old Sonic 2 hack) for Mega Drive. And OF COURSE there are Sonic 1, 2 and 3, selling along with them. As I heard from friend, this is just normal Sonic games, but if I remember correctly, first and second games were translated on Russian.
