The Sonic Game That IGN Actually Likes | Sonic Pocket Adventure

- IGN have a bit of a reputation when it comes to Sonic, but I'm not going to be focussing on that today. Instead, I'm going to look at a Sonic game which IGN themselves have labelled a masterpiece. Is Sonic Pocket Adventure as good as IGN says?

Apparently in IGN's perspective, SNK did what Sega didn't.
More like Dimps
@@scpnoobersthere’s no way you enjoy sonic 4
@@Cap1001kyle dimps didn't only make sonic 4?? They made the advance games and the rush games
@@DeadIriswhich are alr better than sonic 4, I'm so grateful for sonic rush's existence and the soundtrack.
Did what Sega secant
....honestly pocket adventure is actually a pretty damn good game, sonic 2 blood be damned.
Special stages kinda jank, super sonic is locked behind the final boss, but honestly the puzzle pieces and the original layouts in not chemical plant act 2 is actually pretty interesting.
The dimps pit issue is heavy yes, but this game has some genuinely clever ways to keep you into the upper path, like using loopdeloops to keep the upper area and even the "sky chase" section cuts a lot of the fat, which is welcome because _dear god_ every sky chase I've ever seen is _overblown_
i like super sonic not being playable until the end of the game, i don't like how you can't play him outside of that afterwards though.
I even forgot this game's existence
this game still needs a re release cause it's one of the few sonic games that never got a re release since
IGN : this game is 100% original!
While the game uses lots of level design from sonic 2 and barely has something new to offer
What??
It has the basic good and bad ending depending if you can collect all 7 chaos emeralds(the last being in Eggman's boss makes it clever)
It also has puzzle pieces scattered around in every level that you can find and collect and make 6 different pictures with it. And if you do that(for 3 completed pictures you unlock the sound test) you unlock a special stage rush mode where you have to complete every special stage in one go. Basically that's 100%
And you can also play time trial and get P on every level which in this game is Platinum. You can also play 2 player mode with friend.
I think for a Neo Geo Pocket or handheld game in general before the GBA it has plenty of replayability. The graphics are also really nice to look at.
It's not 10/10 because it's the best Sonic game but because it!s one of the best games on the handheld.
I will never understand why we have to compare a console game to a handheld one.
@@benceszarvas5464 you made an entire fucking essay, and let me tell you the game is good but it's about originality, and this game has barely something new
@@benceszarvas5464 the only unique thing is that you could play a copy of doomsday zone.
@@SansINess53 and i meant collecting hidden pieces in levels was new for the franchise in 1999. It was later years when they really started using it more frequently like Chao hunt in Sonic Advance 3(but that was needed for the true ending) or the gold keys in Shadow the Hedgehog. I could say the prototype for this feature was the emblem hunt in Sonic Adventure but it was used it differently.
Why are you guys arguing about a game that's on a handheld i doubt most people know about?
I remember playing this as a kid in an emulator two decades ago, just before UA-cam became a thing.
Silly me needed UA-cam to see that it's really just Sonic 2 with some 3&K elements but for me personally, Pocket Adventure was still lots of fun.
The smooth animations are just gorgeous and the music sounds really good for an 8bit system.
*Sonic standing on whirlpools:* i sleep
*Sonic standing on mushroom clouds:* REAL SHIT?
Buddy, both of these make the exact same amount of sense (except for the part that doesn’t, which is all of it)
Edit: Now that I think about it, since Sonic is the only playable character in this game, it makes sense that IGN thinks this is peak Sonic 🤣🤣🤣
To be fair, Sonic never got hurt from whirlpools, while he HAS been from explosions.
Nah snk went out of business in a different way it just happened their stuff is affected but not kof
Edit:neogeo pocket is only known for the snk vs capcom game anyway
So yeah sonic 1 is literally 0/10 to them but they accept this, which I don't blame but idk why rate the other games badly.
Sonic 1 received 8/10 from them..
@@snakey888 oh that's good right?
@@SansINess53
Better than 0/10
why does everyone keep picking on this ign guy it seems cruel to keep doing it after all these years
who names their kid ign anyway
The guy who wrote this review was a guy named Craig, but you keep on referring to this review as by IGN as a whole. What's up with that?
Because saying that a review is made by IGN is much more recognisable. No disrespect to Craig! I love that he loved this game!
@@walkerslegendz Fair enough, gotta play that UA-cam game I see
"Because SEGA did what Nintendon't and failed as a console publisher." DANG bro you didn't have to do them like that. 🤣💀
They didn’t fail and Nintendo is almost failing too lol
@@cashbrady4074 How is Nintendo almost failing exactly? They're basically at their peak right now and the Switch is really close to becoming the best selling console of all time, if anything they're the console publisher that's LEAST failing right now compared to the others. Or are you just posting bait to try and stir something up lol?
@@legoboy7107 nah mostly some of their games and lettign some fans down and fangames but other than that good and sega was pretty good they just stopped making consoles lol
It’s still true at the end of the day not gonna lie but a.
This game has great graphics,solid sound,medium length and a lot of replayability thanks to the puzzle pieces and the chaos emeralds in general. Even if you found all puzzle piece and put em together,the challenge still won't end because you will unlock Special Stage rush mode where you have to complete all special stage in one go. Also you can challenge yourself in time trial and get platinum in every level.
This game is not 10/10 because it's the greatest Sonic game but because it's one of the best games on the handheld.
Please stop compare console games with handheld and old games with new ones. It's not a fair comparison. If you want to test out how good this game is,play at least 10 more or so Neo Geo Pocket game. I'm sure that IGN dude(Craig) did back in the day.
At the time, Sonic Pocket Adventure scratched that Genesis-era playstyle itch that was missing in handhelds (not 1:1 physics-wise, but much more serviceable than the Game Gear offerings, which were their own beast). I doubt the walker was around when Neo Geo Pocket was a thing. The E3, before it was taken off the market, was promising, with more third parties showing interest in the platform. The NGPC library could be likened to the Dreamcast. There were more hits than misses, but the platform died before it could hit its stride.
You can play as Tails in Sonic 2. It's in the options screen.🤫
i died laughing at sky sanctuary music in a super sonic final boss
We need a re-release of this game.
Or perhaps a recreation. 🤔
SNK should have ported this on modern consoles by putting the game in their Neo Geo Pocket Color Selection Volume 2 instead of the blandness of Rockman Battle & Fighters.
0:16 I guess you could say thst if you hear one more IGN Sonic review, you'll k*** yourself
Today exists a hack called poket winter with a knuckles playable
Sorry but the neo geo poker couloir had some great games , particularly the fighting games , they where legit great fighters not just decent for being in a handheld, capcom vs snk match of millennium is a legit hidden gem .
"poker couloir"
The only highlight about this game is the original bosses other than that it's just sonic 2 and sonic 3 and knuckles soundtrack that's it
Nice vid!
Thanks!
Guess I need to emulate SPA. It's probably a skill issue, but the clicky stick on real hardware never felt great with this game. Rolling specifically feels extremely scuffed.
SUPER SONIC HAS GREEN EYES AND NOT RED -99/10
Ign got a point nobody expect so much content in a "game boy" game also they called the neo geo like that in a gameplay with a bad emulator i guess with a sonic yellow and disorted music.
This game really does slap though
This game is the transition between 3&K to adventure
years later got all achivements beat sonic 3 and knuckles and still kicks ign to the bone at least i have a brain unlike ign
ayy, Im back.
snk did what seg-don’t
Honestly, ign gets a lot of flak for supposedly hating on Sonic, but looking at their reviews of Sonic games, they are usually more positive than negative, consistently rewarding Sonic games higher scores than the average.
Darn shame this never came to Switch.
They also liked sonic 4.,.,.
Why do you keep calling it the Genesis?, that's American. It is the Mega drive in Japan and Europe and UK/England.
Its quite simple really. Most of my audience is American, so I opted for the name that applies most to my audience. I also found using both names to be a bit clunky when I was editing the video.
I played this in school
I broke the game then I was not able to play it
You should have more subscribers
Sonic mania for ngpc
The most ight game ever.
5:44 Okay everyone has talked about this use of soundtrack already can everyone fucking shut up about it? Anyways disliked the video for unoriginality.
