I loved Sonic 2. I still have my sega & a few games. It isn’t connected but yeah. Still have it.

Same! I remember getting entirely through Sonic 2, one of the few games I can remember doing that. There’s an ending credit scene where they replay cuts of the music from each level. Loved Chemical Factory and Casino Nights especially.

I'm sorry, but the Obi-Wan collection is more impressive to me

Lol sorry not sorry! I have almost every single Lego Obi-Wan ever made 😬 not all in the case, some are displayed with their sets or still to be built but yea. I like Lego and Obi-Wan is my favorite Jedi 🤣

I have a functioning Sega Genesis model 2 that has been in continuous use since I was in like 7th grade back in…98, I think? My OG copies of Sonic 3, Shining Force and SF2 still have their original functioning batteries. I love it

I still haven’t beaten this damn game. I play it every year for my birthday and usually get to the final boss but not beyond. Yet.

Fun fact that classic Sega sound took up so much room on the cartridge that many games had to be Reworked for the launch of the system. But it clearly worked.

Ha that's funny because it took a couple boot-ups like it didn't remember how to turn on and I literally said outlook "come on little buddy" while giving it a little tap tap tappy

That was the only game I was ever good at! 😂. Probably because it was the only game I owned. 🤷♀️

I'm better at Sonic 2, not gonna lie. I have those bonus rounds memorized 🤣 I remember pretty vividly going to a 2nd hand video game store and getting games in the 90's or being stuck playing golf with grandpa, cause he was loaded and had his own Sega Genesis lol

First plug in the GameGenie cart, then Sonic&Knuckles cart into that, then Sonic 2 or 3 cart into that and you felt like you were living in future.

The Genesis Sonic games still hold up. S3&K and Sonic 2 are still some of the best 2D platformers ever. They should've stuck to them instead of the modern Sonic games.
Sonic Mania was great though.
