SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2

Shortly after his victory in Sonic The Hedgehog 1, Sonic must once again journey to stop Doctor Robotnik's evil schemes! Now with the help of a trusty new sidekick, Tales, Sonic must journey through an all new world filled with tons of brand new levels and challenges. It will take the duo strength, speed, and determination, to stop Robotnik this time, and even that may not be enough, as they must try and also collect the seven Chaos Emeralds to aquire a power unlike any other to use to put an end to Robotnik's evil ambition

Endings
Number of Endings: 3

How to obtain the endings: Beat Dr. Robotnik with Sonic (with or
without all emeralds) and Tails (doesn’t matter for him).

Endings Description: Destroy the Giant Robotnik machine with 12 hits
and the ship gets ready to blow. Sonic or Tails will make a break
for it to the escape hatch as the spaceship blows up in flames.

Sonic’s Endings

There are black and white pictures of the spaceship blowing up,
Tails and friends looking on, Tails boards the plane, then takes off.

Cut to Sonic spinning in circles as he falls down. Tails will catch
him in the nick of time. Bluebirds (Flickies?) will fly behind the
plane for a little bit before Tails does a plane dive and Sonic
jumps off the plane with his fist pumped.

If you gathered all the Emeralds, then Sonic will be Super Sonic and
instead of spinning as he falls, he spreads his arms out and then
flies alongside the plane. Instead of Bluebirds (Flickies?), Eagles
will come instead. When Tails dips the plane, Super Sonic flies from
behind then emerges in front in a Superman-like style.

Tails Ending

Just the same except there is no cutscene. Tails is just spinning as
he falls down. After a while, Sonic flies by and catches him.
Roosters join the flight before Sonic dips the plane and Tails jumps
off with his feet extended.

After this the credits roll and at the end it will show the Sonic
the Hedgehog 2 logo. There is no good or bad ending here.

Versus
Versus is simply a 2-Player (Split-Screen) Versus mode. The object of this mode is to reach the end of the stage before your opponent, except the bonus stage which is based on who ever collects the most rings. The levels available for play are: Casino Night Zone, Emerald, Mystic Cave Zone, and a Special Stage. The order in which you play is completely up to you, but you must complete all levels to decide a winner. The gameplay is otherwise normal with the addition of two new items:

: Hitting this box is equivalent to being attacked. Hope you have some rings when you touch this one ;)


: Hitting this box will cause both players to switch places. Use it wisely.


When both players reach the end of the stage, the true winner will be decided by such criteria as total rings collected, rings in hand, time, score and number of items broken.

But if one player reaches the end and the other lags behind, they have exactly one minute to reach the end or they die.

Have fun!

Trivia
  • Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was the best-selling Sega Genesis/Mega Drive game of all time.

  • The developers wanted to pay tribute to two of the biggest franchises in pop-culture from both the East and the West. From the East we received Super Sonic, which is a tribute to Dragonball Z's Super Saiyan characters. From the West we received the end level, the Death Egg, which is based off of Star Wars' Death Star.

  • The game's level select code 19, 65, 09, 17 is actually Yuji Naka's birthday, the creator of the Sonic series. September 17th, 1965

  • The game's debug code 1, 9, 9, 2, 1, 1, 2, 4 stands for November 24th, 1992, which is the US version's release date.
