Sonic 1 and 2 (2013) for the Nintendo Switch

Hey! Good job.

 

Now *this* is an interesting project I didn't know about! Awesome to finally have it elsewhere than mobile.

 

Good project! Works good now for me.

Thanks for sharing it!

 

It's a little funny that the Switch is now the one and only platform to get the whole Whitehead Sonic quadrology - with SCD2011, Sonic 1 & 2 here, and the official release of Mania. (Unless hb ports exist on PS4/Xbone)
Also funny that these ports work a bit more smoothly than CD, despite the absolutely spartan frontend replacement. In a twisted way, I kind of prefer it to having to go through logos and the original, slower 3D menu system.

And it's good that the level select cheat as found in mobile still applies here. Only problem I've had is font corruption in Sonic 2 after exiting back to the menu, but it cleared itself out after going to a subpage, so... *shrug?*

All we'd need now is S3-AIR and make this strange polygon of Retro-based Sonic re-releases complete.

 

I second that!

 

I had some random crashes (right after defeating the oil zone and hidden palace bosses), but overall it works fine

No Idea if there will be a wii u port.

 

These ports are absolutely amazing.

 

Jesus, the PC port released 24 hours ago! Are we just going to speedrun porting over Sonic 1 and 2 from now?

 

Have a link to these PC ports?

 

So these are the enhanced mobile ports/remakes? I finally don't have to deal with stupid, inaccurate touch controls to play 'em?
SWEET.

There is aldo remakes of the Gamegear/Master System versions of Sonic 1 and 2 for PC and Android.but I don't think I can link them.

 

Is there any port of Sonic Mania, where we can just add our steam files to it and play?

 

There is a reverse engineering project of sonic mania for the PC.
Still in it´s infancy.

Support for switch was added into Rubberduckycooly's repo by @blawar few minutes ago and I can confirm it to be working without issues so far with full analog support.

Check PR#23 in Rubberduckycooly/Sonic-1-2-2013-Decompilation since I can't apparently link here.
