Presenting, a new late prototype of Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball for the Sega Mega Drive!
This prototype rests in between the earliest known prototype and the latest prototype with the original Sonic 1/2 theme. Unlike the earlier prototype, this build can be finished from start to finish. There are some differences in comparison to the later prototype as well as the final. Can you figure out what they are?
Special thanks to Sazpaimon for recording the footage this time around!

0:12 ouch
32:02 is that dr robotnik's scream?!
Sounds like it. That's the sound that typically plays when you hit/kill a boss in the final release.
@@TheLoganLives I understand if it's for a machine but..atleast a generic voice sample or something. Because that sounds terrifying
Yep i think so
Yes
Wooooo that title screen music. Even in spinball style sounds great
Fun fact: it was used when it first came out but inmediately removed to avoid getting sued by Dreams Come True
@@Ultimatedogfan the final title theme was composed and loaded in with only 1 hour to go when they realised that Sega didn't own the rights to the Sonic 1/2 theme.
I hope someday the CES Chicago Demo version will be found. It'll be very interesting.
What's the difference between that demo and this?
@@lukabogavac5772 thats it?
@@DavidPavicic1 Not sure what are you trying to say, but if you saw the early title screen shown at Summer CES 1993 then that's it. The only thing I want that build is to see many things that were changed during development. Plus I like collecting prototypes! 😊
I'm hoping that one day someone will find the Sonic Spinball prototype that was shown off in some Spanish Sega VHS
@@KlonoaPrime I am hoping for this too. But I am also hoping that all prototypes of Sonic Spinball will be found.
Wow the options music
Making it slightly faster makes it suck just a bit less
It's still faster in the final European release
Instablaster...
The menu music is different, also when the demo dies it goes to the high score screen then title screen.
It's the REV00 music, the music that you're used to is in REV01
i like that music
who else here realizes the title screen music sounds similar to sonic 1
Kinda wished they could keep the S1 title screen music over the final version ones. But yeah, either Nakamura or JASRAC would go after Sega for some extra money on re-releases.
It's Revision 00's music.
Really? I'm really glad they changed it tbh
Man that main theme is so much better than what they used in the final release...
Fun fact: it was used when it first came out but inmediately removed to avoid getting sued by Dreams Come True
@@Ultimatedogfan No way. That's a fun little fact!
It's only early North American NTSC releases though I believe, and not used in any Japanese NTSC or PAL revisions
The Beta main theme sound awfully ear-grating in my opinion. Much prefer the final.
Yep, Dreams Come True owns most of the classic Sonic music, not SEGA. As far as I know SEGA has never tried to outright purchase the music, probably because royalties are so much more lucrative.
I genuinely love Sonic Spinball. This is awesome, thank you!
Thank god they changed the main theme at the start
They changed it because Sega Technical Institute (The team in the USA that developed the game) didn't have the rights to use the title screen theme, because that license was owned by Dreams Come True.
Out of all the times I've beaten this game, I have never once seen that multi-ball bonus.
Thank goodness they changed the title music, that prototype version was painful.
It was actually used in the final version but only the first batch had them, they quickly changed the theme in the later prints after learning that they didn't have permission to use the theme.
I love how this came out, no one talked about it, and like a week later there's Sonic 1.
no just a day later
Wow you guys are at it again! Good find!
31:55 Is that what Robotnik's suit always looked like in this game? I don't recall if I ever actually beat that final boss... or if this cutscene is even in the final version, lol. It's like an early version of the modern redesign tho
I think it's based on the outfit from the old Archie Comics Sonic series.
20:05 - I was today years old when I found out the little monitor showing the position of where the opening is, was actually the monitor showing were the opening is, and not just a random picture … 🤦🏾♂️
Wait... why does that bass in toxic caves sound a lot like knuckles theme during one part idk what to call it so this part 1:55
The title screen is a complete bop ngl
The opening is actually good actually amazing
0:12 When my brother ask me to see who is faster me or him
I like the fact that it’s playable
i swear i’ve heard that title on some online emulator for the game
it was in some builds of final game, however it was quickly replaced due to licensing issues
@@szprink interesting
I think of sonic spinball as if American sonic got his own game
it actually takes place in that universe
The bump sounds fit more with the final song
0:09 -is this some sort of high quality rip or what lmao the difference-
it’s official
@@kaytea42 i know
My parents gave me this prototype cartridge as a kid back in 2004 in a wrapped gift, I wasn't even aware this game existed despite being a sonic fan and played all the other classic Sonic games on the genesis.
Game over music in this version scared the crap out of me though
did that actually happen??? if so, you are very lucky!!
Neat to see an earlier version, but man that gems driver is still terrible on this game regardless
ThunderForce 4? Shinobi 3?
@@victor.elkins you're right, I'm being a little harsh. I just don't like it when its used so badly. Drives me nuts
Maybe it's just me, but I love the way this game sounds. The music has this awesome gritty sound, my favorite being the boss music.
@@JoshSonic Looking at your pfp I remember that Spinball is one of the only Sonic game set in the archieverse... Too bad that the only game with Sally got canned..
@@JoshSonic Same.
Nice
Sucks they cant use the s1/s2 theme more often, it is THE sonic theme song after all
those triangles (next to the flippers) are meant to bounce you but they don't
This game got me into Pinball
lol same
hopefully this game exists
The main title music is not changed :D
50fps...? isn't it 25fps due to it being coded in C...?
imagine being a kid in '94 at 11pm booting up this version of the game and that Annoying ass song blasts thru your house waking up your parents.
That's why you turn the volume to 0 before powering on the machine, and slowly turning it up so you can hear something as you play.
Source: I was that kid
Title has sonic 1 Theme
its interesting how slight hate this game has.
when in my case i like this one, since it was one of my first genesis games besides sonic 2
it understandable tho.
how tf are you playing this so easily
this is the better version just cause of the theme
OG Ear Rape
how on the world is there a protoype for this
The same way there's a prototype for every videogame release in existence
They should've kept the intro music in-
22:58 - Lmao oh that is some bullshit. I know it's a prototype but damn. XD
I like this better bruh
How do you find a prototype of a game that doesn’t exist?
...
@@basicallysnake what
Sonic spinball, a game released on November 23rd, 1993 in north america on the sega genesis
Does not exist
Hidden Palace is literally a site that hosts and documents prototype versions of games.
@@RWL2012 but sonic spinball doesn’t exist
@@littlemacisunderrated412 it does exist, you're trolling
Found I found this prototype on an emulator I was curious why I had the prototype theme but I found it I don’t know how to dump the game
It's REV00. REV01 replaced the theme due to copyright problems.
Omg I searched in clothes NOT THIS
How do you guys all these Sonic prototypes
Game over theme please
Ué o que está acontecendo o cara tá mandando bem nos protótipo de o Sonic 😱
You can get 60fps on the commercial build with an overclocked mega drive. Looks way better.
Yeah but there's still not as many frames of animation as other sonic games. This one was coded in C, an actual programming language which was rare for Genesis. Unfortunately that means the core game engine itself is slow.
MY EARS
…:::HOW ABOUT A RIDE?:::…
…:::☠️READY TO FRY?☠️:::…
…:::SMELL MY SOCKS!!!:::…
Is this the first prototype found of this game?
no
Oh ok.
This is the second
I believe this is the 4th found for the Mega Drive version. There's been a whole lot of prototypes for the game gear
One prototype was leaked on BBS some time before the game actually came out, then there was a late PAL proto in 2009/2010, an altered final build with "SegaChannel" XORed at the end of the ROM data in 2016, and then this one.
It's prototype?
This game doesn’t have a good soundfont
u want it uwu
uh i didnt know i was playing this prototype the whole time uh...
Yang milih allah like 1000 ya yang milih
And the game would go on to still be TERRIBLE.
