Here's a teaser trailer from IGN:

 

 

And here's a promotional art for the game which apparently went up on PSN's CND servers:

 

 

I love the artwork.  Looks great.  

 

Hopefully this collection is good and a quality product all around.  SEGA are so fucking stupid for not working with the teams that did Sonic Mania for a new game

Nice. I’ll get this even though I already own all the classic Sonic games.

sega is actually stupid that they didn't have this packaged and shipped out before the movie come out.

Officially announced.  Releases June 23rd.

 

 

 

 

 

Seems like it's just a digital release for now anyway.. which sucks for fans of physical copies.

Switch version might be coming a bit later according to this image

 

 

Says coming soon.. and apparently there's an in-game currency to unlock shit lol??

 

 

Anyway the trailer looks great.  These conversions run on the Retro Engine which is the same engine that Sonic Mania uses.

This is going to be awesome.  Different missions to do to earn coins to unlock stuff.

Meh, its basically just a collection of roms. I find it hard to get excited about this.

It's not emulation.

 

I mean... hating a collection... for being a collection of games... is just stupid.

 

If you don't care, that's understandable... but just say that.

I didn't say I hated it. Im just saying that its a very low effort series of ports. Sonic is more popular than its been in decades because of the movie series but instead of capitalizing on that with big new games, SEGA instead puts out ports of games from the 90s.

Sonic Team is still working on that open world Sonic game. I won’t be getting it again because I already own Sonic 2 (My favorite) in like 3 places.
