Endings (StHRetro)

From Sonic - Wiki on Neoseeker

There are two different endings that you can have. To get these, just beat Dr. Robotnik with or without all emeralds.

[edit] Ending Description

First you have to beat Dr. Robotnik in his machine where he sends electric balls at you then tries to crush you. Defeat it and his machine blows up and he runs. You chase after him and you have the option of blowing up his escape pod when he jumps into it.

From there, we see a scene of Sonic running left along the fields of the Green Hill Zone. He then comes to a screeching halt and does one of the following:

Bad Ending (don’t get all the emeralds): Sonic gives you that “hurry up and play me” stare.

Good ending (get all emeralds): Sonic throws the emeralds into the air and they start swirling around and disappear and Sonic looks around with a confused look.

Sonic then jumps out at you with his index finger pointed at you and an “alright” facial expression and the words Sonic the Hedgehog appears.

The credits roll and show clips of the various stages you been in. Clips of the music from each stage will be played too but in wrong order. At the end of the credits, Dr. Robotnik does one of the following.

Bad Ending: Robotnik juggles any uncollected emeralds above his head and the words “TRY AGAIN” appear under him.

Good Ending: Robotnik stomps furiously on the word “END”.
