From the past, not a blast
Not to be confused with Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic Blast only really shares a fondness for rendered sprites with its 16-bit namesake, sticking to more mainline Sonic staples like running, spinning and grabbing Chaos Emeralds. The rendered sprites weren't particularly impressive back in 1996 and they don't stand up too well...
About The Game
Sonic Blast was released for Game Gear in conjunction with Sonic 3D Blast (aka Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island) for Mega Drive and Saturn.
It boasts similarly rendered character sprites and colorful backgrounds. The game was yet another addition to the series, plus Sega had hoped it would be a boost to the dying Game Gear's title selection at the time.

Oh god not this one, it's a mess. :/ Of all the Sonic GG games to pick...
Nothing says retro like glitchy games.
I enjoyed this game on sonic Adventure DX so may get on day one.
i want sonic 1,2,and3 from game gear
Sonic Fans: Oh God not Labyrinth! It was the worst sonic game - why choose it?
Sonic Blast Announced
Sonic Fans: Oh not this one! Anything but this!
Lol...
sonic is a good game but this is a bad time to turn 3d
Looks better than Labirinth.But this doesen´t mean anything because Labirint was terrible
I like the graphics in the game better than 3D blast. Better than Sonic 2, but not as good as Triple trouble or Labyrinth. (Kill me if you want)
Labyrinth was a sonic game?
I'm getting it on eShop for a reason I can't come up with.
what happen with this release in Eshop USA? continue wanting more every Thursday?
dammit sega when is this coming out in north america
My Fav. Sonic Game EVER!!!!!!
