>that GameCube dpad
It was nice at the time because I didn't know better as far as controls go but not really.

No reason to play this over the taxman remakes or the 3DS versions

I'm not playing any version of sonic 3 that removed the mj music and I'm not playing vidya on a fucking phone

It's alright.

Complete lets you choose your music, and Angel Island Revisited keeps everything intact with options for S3 or S&K theme usage. To be frank, there are no versions of Sonic 3&K besides the PC Collection from the 90's that altered the music under any pretense other than what S&K already replaces from S3.

I'm not playing any fanmade bullshit either

Then just get the collection or emulate the rom, jesus christ user. Stop being such a picky bitch.

I'm asking because I already have the collection you double nigger

The hostility in this thread, incredible.

It's just a rom with some nice features built in. Try it.

You wasted your money then.

Yes, but you have to unlock 3&K.

What do you think mega collection is?

that's what fanhacks are for, yes?

I can't remember if the Mega Collection had any real big emulation issues that weren't just occasional sound problems to be honest. It's a pretty nice collection. You can obviously still play it and i'm presuming via Wii, so that's not really much of an issue. It's also a way better package than the Sega Genesis Collections that followed on the PS3/360 and later PS4/XB1. There's some real wonky dick emulation with a lot of that shit for seemingly no reason.

For simply playing the games as they are, the only way you can really do better on modern hardware besides emulating them yourself is the 3DS Sega Ages version of Sonic 1, the mobile phone ports you already complained about, and the aforementioned S3 Complete / Angel Island Revisited. Say what you will about "fanhacks" and "fanshit", S3 Complete is flatout the definitive edition of the game thanks to all the tweaks, bugfixes, improvements and options you get without altering any of the core experience. Angel Island Revisited doesn't have the bells and whistles of S3 Complete, but is a nice package all of its own.

One way or another though, you're still playing emulation. Even if you're playing Mega Collection, it's just a packaged batch of roms run through an emulator except you paid for them.

an official release

this is the most autistic thing i've ever heard anyone say about fanhacks. THAT'S LITERALLY THE POINT YOU FUCKING MONG. do you GENUINELY think that someone making a fanhack will also make a physical copy of it?

It's a fucking emulator you dumbass. If you want the real thing then play on the original console

Unless he's talking about running them on an actual genesis via an everdrive or something.

the only place fanhacks belong is a garbage bin

aren't there still good ones?

nope, he's just some weirdo that only buys official releases and hates anything fanmade

Simple answer is yes, it's a good way to play it.
Far from the best as you can tell.

Shit thread, fuck off.

how do you do that
is there even a point over just playing s3 and then s&k separately

what's the best way then

Calm the fuck down edgelord

The past few days have been especially brutal

you have to play both games 20 times each (which can be done by just opening and then exiting them repeatedly). the result is being able to actually save your progress in the S&K portion, combining both games together so Launch Base leads into Mushroom Hill, and being able to collect the Chaos Emeralds a second time for Hyper Sonic (or Super Tails / Super Knuckles).

>Have to start S3 and S&K like fifty times each to unlock S3&K
No

Emulated. Or play the originals, or play the M2 or Taxman versions, or play that collection be Xbox/PS2/GC, or get Sonic Jam even if some audio issues due to cd.

Buying a Genesis and 1, 2, and 3 yourself.

oh yeah, and being able to play as Knuckles through the S3 part of the game where he still fights Big Arm at Launch Base, unlike Sonic and Tails in S3&K.
