Sonic Gems Collection (GCN) | Pt.5: Sonic Spinball (Game Gear)
179#SonicGemsCollection
Part 5 of Sonic Gems Collection, onto the second (and probably least favorite) Game Gear title, Sonic Spinball!
Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball, also known as Sonic Spinball, is an 8-bit port of the original Sega Mega Drive game Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball, released for the Sega Master System and Sega Game Gear in 1994. A pinball game in which the player controls Sonic the Hedgehog, who acts as the pinball. The majority of the game takes place within the "Pinball Defense System", which resembles a series of large pinball machines. The game comprises four levels, each containing numerous flippers that can be used to aim Sonic's trajectory and launch him through the level. The objective of this pinball game remains the same as the 16-bit game as obstacles still need to be cleared, Chaos Emeralds must be collected, and bosses must be defeated. Enemies are the same and the theme of the levels are also the same.
Although the levels carry the same theme as the 16-bit game, the layout of the levels and the graphics are different. Due to the different level layout there are several more opportunities to travel on foot. The speed is also slower and can make the game feel a bit floaty. The bonus stages are also different as they have the same objective level to level, and do not change to a first person perspective. There are also hidden rooms which contain cheat code bearing monitors, which when broken, will display a cheat code. The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog and SatAM character cameos are also dropped from the Bonus Stage, although curiously, the AoStH model for Robotnik is used on the box art, while the Doctor's usual games look was used on the 16-bit packaging.
As mentioned in the last game (being Sonic 2), i've never beaten any of the game gear titles, where I mainly got stuck in this game was pretty much Toxic Pools, not even making it to the boss battle either lol. To a surprising brightside, I was able to get through without any deaths, and discovered one of the hidden cheat code monitors during The Machine. I think after going through this do I realize that The Machine is probably the least favorite level on game gear, but the complete opposite when playing on genesis.
