Collection when?

if you were a true sonic fan you would already have the games instead of waiting for a collection

when i was in school an autistic kid keep his GBA in his pocket, idling a level of sonic advance 2, so he could listen to the music on his headphones

additional information: none

Sonic Advance 1 has some surprisingly good music.

Ice Mountain Act 2 and Cosmic Angel are the best ones.

>>713483676 (OP)
I have the first two. After a while the only input you do is -> and, occasionally, A.

>>713483676 (OP)
Who even liked them? Can guarantee every sonic game available right now is better than them

>>713483676 (OP)
sega cannot release these games in the US as they were published by THQ who are defunct. they'd have to remake them.

>>713484783
lmao?

>>713484783
Sonic Advance 2 was my third favorite Sonic game until Mania came along.

I like the Advance games but Battle sucks, I tried to like it for the lore and cool artstyle but the actual gameplay is just fucking garbage, and this is coming from an autistic Sonicfag that unironically enjoys parts of 06.

Reminder that Hyenas was SEGA's much hyped "1 billion dollar super game" and for a fraction of a fraction of the price it cost they could have republished, remastered and ported every single game in their entire library to modern platforms.

look up the law. sega didn't do publishing rights so they can't re-release them here. they published them in Japan so they've been able to have them on the Wii U eshop for example.

>>713483676 (OP)
never ever

>>713483676 (OP)
Tomorrow. It'll have widescreen for everything and Battle will be rebalanced to not make you fight every fight twice (minimum).

Advance 1 and 2 were pretty damn good. Took advance 1 a bit to grow on me but secret base is cool and the egg rocket zone is also very cool
Music is also great

Come to think of it, advance 2 is kind of the first sonic game I played (since it was what sonic ultimate flash copied from)

>>713483676 (OP)
I would support a remake-ster of Battle with active online/legacy mode.

>>713484872
Game/Publishing rights don't just disappear into an inaccessible gap in reality when a company dies you moron.

>>713485419
by digging a little bit, it seems that thq nordic no longer owns the publishing rights but who knows

>>713486093
if this was true then it would encourage companies to bankrupt each other and I know copyright law is screwy but it's not that screwy

>>713484872
they have the rights back, THQ said so themselves but SEGA are probably too retarded to even realise they do and still think they can't

>>713486868
>they have the rights back, THQ said so themselves
How? THQ Nordic is not THQ. They never had the rights to these games?

>>713483676 (OP)
The fuck is Battle doing there?

i really enjoyed advance 2 even though i could only beat it with cream, fuck that sky windmill stage

>>713487040
>i could only beat it with cream
You didn't beat the game

>>713487318
yeah i know, but i swear to god that windmill stage is pure cbt, countless times i just fell down and had no idea where to go

>>713487650
Learn how to use the shoulder moves off ramps/springs.

Anyone know how close Advance 1 and 3 are to getting decompiled?

>>713487793
i don't think i ever used those yeah, way too fast paced of a game

>>713487847
They will propel you in a direction, so N-shoulder button does a reverse, where the character throws themselves backwards.
F-shoulder goes forward-
D-shoulder does a ground-pound (only Sonic and Knuckles can use these to break ground objects)
And Up-shoulder, which hurls you up.

Sonic also can-
Homing attack/insta shield
Ground pound (Jump, hold+down, jump button)
and Air dash by hitting a directional twice in the air (you can chain these, and break the bosses with it).

Always felt the Advance series was way too pitfall heavy especially when you compare to the Genesis games that only ramped up the pits towards the end of the games.
Battle was an absolute blast and kind of shocked me that we got both e-102 and Shadow returning in the game

>>713488045
And Chaos.

>>713487985
yeah, at least 20+ years ago that was too much for my kid brain to handle

>>713487031
Considering the final boss of Advance 3 uses a remix of the main character's theme from Battle (and actively feeding into all the implications that has), many treat it as a subgame to the Advance series in particular.

>>713488130
Your kids self never read the manual, that's where a lot of that was 'hidden'. I also brute forced and understood how to do that stuff BECAUSE Sky Canyon was rough.

>>713488225
i think i got the game used so i didn't have the box for it. i knew about those shoulder things but it was just too difficult to pull off while already handling the difficult platforming

>>713487031
Cry moar.

Well, you'll never use the Neutral Air, but everything else is pretty intuitive. Like even if you press shoulder at the very end, right before hitting the ground, your move will come out. So it's not a timing thing, just gotta keep those moves in mind. They are all also universal, so everyone has the same moveset in the regards.

Most of Sky Canyon just relies on the Up-Air move.

>>713488552
really? i thought the timing was pretty strict, maybe there was something else then

>>713488781
Nope, you don't have to mash or anything. Just remember, if you launch of it or bounce of it (even enemies that act as jump pads) allow you to do it is all.

>>713488816
yeah i think it was the jump pads on the windmill stage combined with how you multiple times have to take a leap of faith to get to the next area

>>713483801
Funny you say that because I just got Advance 2 today. Last Sonic GBA game I needed. Yes, I do have Sonic Genesis. Yes I'm questioning why I have it in the first place.

>>713484118
Sonic fans are a special kind of autistic

>>713486093
Sometimes that might as well be what happens.
Remember Night Dive being the first people to actually look into what it would take to re-release System Shock 2, and they found out that the rights to it were held by an insurance company that acquired the assets when Looking Glass was liquidated?

>>713483676 (OP)
Sonic Battle isn't Sonic Advance...

>>713484118
that was me unironically, I still love music plant

>>713487650
That stage is pure fucking bullshit
The fucking barrel of the game
At no point before then do you need to use tricks to progress. I don't think there are any points after where it's necessary either
I think I died like 40 times trying to get past it before I looked it up and discovered the trick system. Guess it's for the best otherwise I probably would have gone the whole game without knowing about tricks.

>>713488541
based. so beautiful
