  • Review Sonic Mega Collection (GCN)

    When Sega and Nintendo had their rivalries in the 90’s some people never got a chance to witness some of the best that gaming had to offer due to owning only one of the two machines.

    Fast forward fifteen years and how things have changed! What better way to begin new friendships than bringing out one of the best compilations to date.. Sonic Mega...

About The Game

Sonic Mega Collection is a celebration of one of the most successful game characters of all time, Sonic the Hedgehog.

Sonic the Hedgehog was designed and developed by Yuji Naka, director of Sonic Team, in 1990 and launched on the Megadrive in Europe during 1991, selling over 4 million copies. Later that year its sequel, Sonic 2, hit shelves and quickly became a hit, selling 400,000 units in its first five days of availability, earning the status of the top-selling 16-bit video game of all time. Featuring 7 all-time classic Sonic titles and a whole host of additional content including character illustrations, movies and comic book covers, this game is the official legacy for all Sonic enthusiasts.

Only Sonic can penetrate the pinball defence system, free the animals, collect the Emeralds and put a stop to his fiendish plan. Using Sonic as a pinball, work your way up through the Veg-O-fortress uncovering concealed passageways, collecting Emeralds and avoiding deadly traps. Up to four people can take turns to control Sonic in this thrill packed adventure. Each level has a number of Chaos Emeralds you must collect before confronting the boss robot and completing the level. A variety of hatchways and other obstacles stand between you and the Emeralds. These can only be passed by flicking hidden switches, and by repeated Sonic attack force. Follow the directions marked in the background to make sure you hit the right spots. With the blockages cleared, follow the path to find the Emeralds. When all the Emeralds have been gathered, Sonic must destroy the level boss.

Dr Robotniks' Mean Bean Machine - 1-2 players
Dr. Robotnik is changing the jolly folk of Beanville into devious little robots that will help rid Planet Mobius of music and fun forever. Group the beans together to help them escape while working your way up to the wilier henchbots. Remove the beans by stacking 4 of the same coloured beans together. Attack your opponent by creating chain reactions, but watch out for counter-attacks! Beans drop from the top of the dungeon in pairs. When 2 beans of the same colour touch, they will link. When 4 or more beans are linked together, they disappear from the dungeon. Try to arrange the beans into groups as they drop to prevent them from overfilling.
