The final set of bosses from Sonic Triple Trouble.
Very hard finale to the game, as per usual Game Gear Sonic standards. Did they want people to actually complete these games or not!? Portions of this battle are just plain unfair:
Couple of Notes:
1) Egg Pogo Mobile:
The only easy portion of the fight. It also doesn't explode, which is odd, it just flys off screen, which looks very silly indeed.
2) Flame Jet Mobile:
Harder than it looks. The hit radius of the flame is larger than the sprite, (thanks Sega), and the sparks can also hurt you.
If that wasn't unfair enough, when the weapon drops, that explosion HURTS YOU. What. Seriously. What. Thanks to the slowdown this causes, sometimes Sonic doesn't react to your button press and gets hit anyway. Talk about punishing the player.
3) The final is a monster.
Not only are the hit radiuses for the sparks FREAKING HUGE, but while they're being shot out, it's suicide to attack Robotnik, if you do you simply bounce back directly into the single shot thats on screen. As a result, you want to hold back untill he stops shooting. The timing of getting 3 hits in is also pretty tight, a minor mistake here will kill you via the electro-storm. Even if you have rings, he'll merely knock it away from you, and you don't have time to get it back. Nasty!

There doesn't seem to be much of a reward for getting all the Emeralds. Phooy. At least the other games have a slightly better ending.

This game isn't bad, but it's not up to Sonic 2 or 3 quality either.
Also you have this game to blame for the insane requirements the recent games have for getting the Chaos Emeralds.
