Then cancel the steam version, get a refund and then get the Switch port.

PC is still likely to be best version. Plus I prefer Steam and I got it cheaper than the console version.

To each their own I guess.

I think I'm going to take the plunge and update my Switch for this. Not that I never wanted to update, but besides Zelda and Mario Kart I haven't wanted any other game so I never felt the need to update just in case any significant hacks came out.

On the other hand when you think about it, besides piracy wtf are you going to do with a hacked out Switch when you own a hacked out PS Vita, hacked out PSP, portable Raspeberry Pi console, and hacked out 3DS.

The trailer is amazing.

Never played Sonic when I was younger, but my hubby did, so we're getting this game for him. He's very excited to play it.

Sonic Mania is out right now on the New Zealand Eshop if you can't wait any longer for this amazing game

The Switch version is £15.99 on the UK eShop and from what I've seen, the Steam version goes for £13 or so.

Sonic Mania will be amazing on any platform.

Yeah, it's not like it's graphically intense or something, so IMO the Switch version will actually nudge out the others by a bit. Y'know, given it's two versions in one and the battery life for a game like this will be very long. It'll be like having a Gamegear that doesn't suck.

Damn, not available on the uk one yet. Here's hoping it comes out early, hoping for midnight myself!

Metacritic stats 2 hours till release, so here's hoping for midnight launch.....

Sonic Mania is the right way to make a 2D Sonic game.

Apparently there's a secret mode involving a guy who doesn't chuckle. I'll let you figure it out.

Hey, so, I've been thinking about getting it... but I dunno yet... pros and cons?

This is like the official Sonic 4 (never mind the episodic Sonic 4 that was a halfassed product). Says it all really.

Right, like... sonic 1 and 2 were okay. I grew up with them, and they were 'decent'. Anything new in this version? Or anything, I guess... "Special"?

 

[The Frenchman]

I was playing Sonic 3 complete romhack on my sega genesis all weekend in anticipation. Replayed sonic 1 and 2 in the last week. I am now ready AF for this.

 

[Thirty3Three]

So it has competition mode, which I LOVE (thank god it's back), is there anything like new or special? And obviously with the emeralds I can become super sonic right?
