Sonic 3 and sonic and Knuckles are the same game but they where post to be one game but do to the time to have it come out and a McDonald's deal they had to put it into two different games. Edit: and game space and was never made in one not if you have sonic 3 and sonic and Knuckles and put them together you will have the full game plus you get knuckles as a character to play as.

4:04 Man, so many years without playing PuyoPuyo really took a toll on Eggman's level of play...
Well if you actually think about it, Popping Puyos was Arle's thing, not Robotnik's.

@@traktor420 Weeeell I expected someone to know what I’m quoting, lol
You know what, I actually found it harder than the original, because 1) It's much faster 2) It's better guarded - only hit it specific moments, unlike the original, which you can hit whenever it's not in the air 3) You can wait out the original and pick your shots -- this one will push you off a cliff 4) Those infuriating invincibility frames. My thumbs were trained to Sonic OG games and itch to hit the boss as fast as possible aaargh !@#%!@ You can cheese it and most other bosses with rings, but that takes a fair amount of luck.

I haven’t seen anyone point out, unless I somehow missed it, that the little Amy dolls in the gachapon machine are based off of Tails Doll. I kinda wish they went all out and made doll versions of everyone (Tails, Amy, Knux, etc.), but that was a neat little touch nonetheless. Having “classic” Robotnik bosses as collectible toys was a nice nod as well.
Attacking Sonic with teeny mecha-Knuckles doesn't quite send the same message as exploding hug-dolls resembling Sonic's female stalker. Tails dolls would be just as sadistic but not quite as funny :)
3 things you're missing: - The small robot in Metal Sonic's phase 2 is a throwback to one of the master system bosses - The DD Wrecker resembles the Death Egg - Oil Ocean's act 1 boss resembles the lumberjack boss from Sonic 3.
It’s sonic 2 master system scrambled egg zone
16:14 Well Well Well Look How The Tables Have Turned 17:06

I'm fun at parties, because Eggman was trying to prepare for another S3&K Hydrocity Zone Act 2 bossfight.

There's 1 reference I don't think anyone has bothered mentioning, the final boss of Titanic Monarch (the normal one), it's missile attack has 4 target symbols which are directly taken from SegaSonic the arcade game when the level map screen shows up, the same target symbol is used to display the next level!
Also that's like the machine we fight inn Metallic Madness act 3.

11:01 Metal Sonic (Phase 2) (Boss of Stardust Speedway Act 2) > Origin Sonic the hedgehog 8 bits (SMS/GG) Scrambled Egg Boss : Silver Sonic
Well, the boss' mechanic was mainly Metal's fight in Chaotix. Silver Sonic was just a minion there. But regardless, he deserved a spot then.
@@suckerman7gm look closely in the description box. Dark Lord Chaos forgot to add Silver Sonic. Fabchaotix was calling him out on that mistake.
SONIA 😞
This boss is actually a combination of the Scrambled Egg Boss and the final boss from Sonic and Knuckles\Sonic 3 and Knuckles, if you don't count the secret boss for getting all the emeralds as the final boss
@@selenedelatorre2383 what?
i love how Eggman goes full final boss in the first battle... like "ok, screw this... Death Egg Robot time"
It's been so long since I've played Mania I forgot how much the soundtrack slaps
Nice to see so many callbacks to 1995’s hidden gem “Knuckles’ Chaotix” (just called “Chaotix” in Japan) for the ill-fated 32X.
Knuckles’ Chaotix is - in my personal opinion - the best Sonic game ever made. Sonic Team even wanted to make a SEQUEL TO IT.
@@GlitchanBlack Dunno about BEST, as it had some flaws; At times the rubber-band physics of the game’s “buddy system” were frustrating, and I think five acts per stage was a bit much, and some had less areas to reach high speeds than others. Exploration-type levels in Sonic games are fine, but this game had too many. Also, you don’t really get any huge bonus for collecting all the “Chaos Rings”; They’re mostly just to keep the whole “Chaos Emerald collection” gimmick going, although the background about them in the original Japanese story was pretty cool. All-in-all, Knuckles Chaotix is a fun-yet-flawed hidden gem of a game.
@@Mechasonicrocks There were also some buddy's that straight up made it harder like bomb
@@not_meplans6989 Yup, Heavy and Bomb.
"Hidden gem" Yeah, no.

8:50 this is harder than the final boss
Yes
Yes
Yeah, I raged really hard at this back then.
Yeah
Omg yes
can we appreciate that he beat big shaker in 5 seconds
i also beat him but in like 10 seconds cuz of his long-!@@ attack
13:51 I noticed that the attack pattern of this boss is simmilar to that of the final boss of Sonic and Knuckles (second phase)
I thought i was the only one who noticed
kzhead.info/sun/frh9e5itsH6iaGw/bejne.html
Second phase like doomsday zone?
No its when your chased by the death egg robot when it shoots its laser
11:11 You kinda forgot Silver Sonic's boss fight from Sonic 2 (Game Gear), it's also there and technically happening at the same time as fighting metal sonic, and you also forgot Mirage saloon act 1 (For everyone but knuckles, kinda) and you forgot oil ocean act 1, i mean i guess that's probably not a reference to anything but still a bit odd.
Mirage Sallon's subboss is both a reference for Gigalopolis' boss adn the worm enemy from Sonic 1 that appear in Marble Zone (and Scrap Brain) If you look well, both are equal, being both pink, with anttenas on the head and glass showing inside it. The sky fight of this boss is just a reimagination if the boss, but with the same origin. About the Oil Ocean subboss, it is very similar from Hai Hou, subboss from Mushroom Hill zone. Both have a simiar body and the weapons are similar.
You’re right bro 😳
@@chillway5776 Mirage Saloon's sub-boss for everyone but Knuckles is actually also a reference to the dragon boss from the SEGA arcade game Space Harrier.
Master system for me ;)
Doesn't the Oil Ocean act 1 boss have an origin as well?
6:30 hah, Get it? because the original version of this fight was T R A S H.
No.
Yeah
@@ObjcetSohwRael its that in sonic mania you fight it in the literal trash
@@ObjcetSohwRael the joke your head
18:27
Love how the second boss is the final boss of the second game. and how they use this to show just how much easier this boss could be with uneven terrain and rings! The Death Egg Robot's really not all that it's... *cracked* up to be! ...oh, and uh, the third boss is a boss from the third game, and the first is from the first. cool!... does this mean bean machine is the true Sonic the Hedgehog 4?
Well tbh death egg robot from mania is generally easier. Come on, he barely attacks AT ALL. But yeah, he's hard only because of no rings. Also silver sonic (or mecha sonic) before him is way harder
@@shawermus Nah Silver Sonic is easier to hit. Though, doesn't Death Egg Robot from Sonic 2 attack very slowly, too?
@@JoelTheParrotHe only walks, flys in the air, shoots bombs at you if you’re behind him, and shoot his 2 arms at you in Sonic 2. Meanwhile in Sonic Mania, he barely has any attacks, its only 3 attacks he reuses!
you're missing the point.@@wunluvv21
Finally I can see if my thoughts on their origins were correct
So many great references in this game to the franchise, though I was surprised by lack of anything related to Vector, Charmy and Espio, considering what they did for Fang, Bark, Bean, Mighty & Ray, plus Chaotix representation in general. Maybe they will be playable in Mania 2! I really liked Vector's air-dash.
It's possible they don't exist in this timeline.
@@godofwar234regi5 Mania was done before the Forces stuff. Also, considering Silver is present on Forces, Mania might be on the same timeline that goes from Sonic 1 to Sonic Team Racing, and Forces being the outsider, like Rush's Sol dimension.
@@conic2721 did u forget the Knuckles Chaotic game? That was before Mania Edit: mania had Knuckles, Victor, Charmy, Mighty n Espio in it
sonic mania does feel like it's inspired by knuckles chaotix, with the hyper/combine ring powerup, level objects, rings, heck even knuckles in this game looks like a mix of s3&k and chaotix knuckles
@@Sexynhomeless0092 They were talking about timeline and multiverse stuff. Also, I think you mean Knuckles Chaotix.
It is interesting how many of Sonic Mania's bosses are all past game final bosses
Sonic mania is bascially every single classic sonic game the Saturn the genesis and the MS, and game gear
The Saturn never had any Sonic games on it. All 4 of the core ones were on the Megadrive. With some also being on the Master System as inferior versions. And then there are the Sega CD ones which make up the rest shown here. I don't mean to make fun of you, but you picked 4 consoles and only one of them was really right. It's pretty funny.
@@TailsClock you never played the MS ones, did you? They weren't "inferior versions", because they weren't versions at all. They were completely different games of their own with different zones, storylines (such as they were back then) and everything. The OP is absolutely right to list MS / game gear. Saturn was the only mistake.
@@TailsClock Are you an idiot?
As you said @@Torthrodhel it's amazing to call the master system one as inferior, he maybe never tried them at all, i bought back a master system (a master system 1 with the card reader) just to be able to play sonic 2 after a friend showed it to me and trying Sonic Chaos at a Master System demo station in a shopping mall (and it was an amazing sonic). I was a nut of Sonic back in the day, i bought a Game Gear just for Triple Trouble. The only moment i got out of Sonic was when Sonic 3D was released, i got the Mega Drive AND the Saturn version, the Saturn version had better song which for most of them where re recorded and used in Sonic Adventure Dreamcast (I saw Sonic adventure being demo for Dreamcast i got tears and started to save to have one on EU release). I regret i sold my Saturn with Sonic Jam, the 3D part where Sonic walk thru museum, memorabilia and play the old game was feeling cool for the time, but after comparing Croc Playstation and Saturn back in the day, it was clear the Saturn was having tough time to really cope with real time 3D. I only regret Sonic Mania's super sonic isn't more like the Hyper Sonic mode of Sonic 3 & Knuckles with the directional double jump and it's flash, maybe too tough to implement with Sonic's already new possibility in Mania?
@@johannherveux1490 I mean Sonic Mania was obviously made with a love of the entire series in mind, including the Master System titles, given the Silver Sonics used in the boss fight, as well as assorted other references. :) Shame they didn't go for a full level from any of those games (Sky High could've been iconic, right?), but I guess when you make a game you want to self-impose some limits so the project doesn't run away into overfeature hell. Wherever you strike a balance it has to be somewhere, and they went with the more known-and-played mainstream and stuck with that. Fair enough. My guess with Hyper Sonic is that they are saving that for a sequel probably. Really hope a sequel's in the works!
Metal Sonic phase 3 is also based on S&K's final boss just before Doomsday. Also Metal Kai looks a lot creepier
+
You really nailed it! Nice job!
Loved how Mania basically remixes old bosses and mashed concepts together, and gave us something more than just “Jump on Robotnik 8 times” However, Hydrocity Zone was so lazy, they didn’t change a single aspect of the fight at all from the original. I kept waiting for the twist in the battle, but nope. At least it was big enough for Robotnik to squeeze in. Also the Sonic version of the Giant Worm boss is a mix up of both Marble Garden’s Act 2 boss and oddly enough, Space Harrier. I will give the dev team points on doing their homework on some of these.
Are you sure you're thinking of the right zone? I think hydrocity was one of the best bosses because it swapped the roles and you were in the pod like Launch Base act 2. Sure phase 2 of the second boss was the same but phase one of that fight and the first boss wer creative enough to make good bosses for that stage overall.
@@elidugal7733 I was referring to the bit where you fight the same whirlpool robot from base sonic 3. That part was the same battle. I liked the role reversal bit though.
@@KoArtsies it’s a harder ver the boss is bigger along with the water being higher
That's the problem of the game. They give you nothing new. It's a nostalgic remix, not a new game
"Reference".
So with Fang The Sniper, Bean the Dynamite, and Bark the Polar Bear I think this means that Sonic Mania takes place in the spin off time line. This means that after Sonic Generations, Young Robotnik made new traps for Sonic, these being the Game Gear and Spin off games. This means all those wierd games that never seemed to fit like Sonic labyrinth, Sonic Spinball, and Sonic the Fighters are all part of their own time line. Remember how weird it was seeing Sally and co in Spinball? Thats because they are the friends Sonic makes within the Game gear related time line.
I'm a big Mario fan, but I gotta say the sprites on this games are great
Play Sonic mania it's in the Nintendo switch
If you think about it. The word Metal Sonic Kai means Metal Sonic Kaiju I think. I'm not making fun of anyone or anything really I was interested about the Metal Sonic Kai thing.
Oh hi mario fan!
@the real minionboyi like metroid,pokemon, mario,sonic etc and i hate megaman and bubsy
The Yoshi it says iT in your name
14:26 That one is really much creepy
26:05 hate to be that guy but isn’t this suppose to be a reference to Metropolis Zone boss where Eggman spawns in Chibi versions of him to attack Sonic?
Correct, I was about to point that out
😞
Fun Fact: In Sonic 4 Episode 1: In Flying Eggman's Second Phase Sometimes He Spawns In HUGE Versions Of Himself
Hydrocity act 1 boss in sonic mania be like: UNO REVERSE
I know it's a year late, but I haven't seen anyone mention it. The Spider Boss in Flying Battery Act 2 is a reference to the Egg Tarantula from the Sonic Archie Comics Issue #200. The issue is notable for being Eggman's Last Stand before snapping and going ballistic. The Mania devs really pulled from all of Sonic's history for this game.
For a mega game like this and has boss references, I'm still playing it
The boss in 13:39 also remembers normal final boss in S3&K. (Death Egg Zone 2)
I love eggmans noise in sonic mania when he is driving away
1:35 Tails: WHOA?! THIS GUYS FASTER THAN SONIC!?
I never realized the origins of many of these bosses.
13:52 - it's also refference to great eggman robo (phase 2)

I've never played this game for 3 years ago but in 13:44 their boss are different in first release. Maybe because this boss is really hard to take on so dev want to easy things in later updates.
Absolutly not, the first design felt rushed.
No
the original boss was just metal sonic and a spikewall. that was all. it was boring LOL they just made it good.
Fun Fact: Metal Sonic Phase 2 (Mania) also contains a reference to Silver Sonic, fron the Master System/Game Gear games.
I liked the video. Really shows that they've put a lot of effort in making a good history game. But you did overlook that Silver Sonic (the little one you fight in the second phase of Metal Sonic) is also a boss. Specificly from the Sonic 2 game for the master system. In any case, overlooks be overlooks. Really solid work done!

It's something I only realised playing S3&K recently that the version of Uber Catakiller you fight from the plane is essentially based on Marble Garden Act 2. The attack pattern very similar with the dipping in and out of the background too..
the race was my favorite part of cd and mania!
Big squeeze boss also shares some traits with Sonic 2's Wing Fortress's boss
I haven't seen some of these before they are really cool.

For those of you in the comments thinking why Silver Sonic from Sonic 2 (MS/GG) is not in this video is because he's in the "Sonic Mania all Enemies Origins" video.
For oil ocean you included the original plus lava reef as the origin....but for stardust speedway you only included the origin from CD, even though the big firefly's attack is based on phase 2 of death egg zone's act 1 boss
30:41 this is the weirdest boss i had ever seen in a sonic game.
Yeah, it is a Mario enemy in the world of sonic
@@OrpheasVIPC Bead Worm Boss is one your thinking about. Right?
I think it's been confirmed that Metal Sonic Phase 2 is a reference to Emperor Metallix, from the Fleetway Comics
I don't know if it's been said already, but the boss in Oil Ocean Act 1 is similar in design to Mushroom Hill Act 1' boss in Sonic & Knuckles, while Metallic Madness Act 2's boss' mini eggmen may come from Metropolis Zone's boss in 2.
You can just walk under Death Egg Robot's legs. *YOU CAN JUST WALK UNDER THE LEGS* !!! And here I was thinking you'd get hurt or crushed for trying!
How did he beat the Death Egg Robot so easily? I have only beat that boss once...
And how amny times did you play sonic mania? Or Sonic 2 if that's the case? 2?
Nice video
I think the most interesting was the MBM boss in chemical plant, as it's based off a whole other game than just another boss
4:10 *Aw would you look at that? Eggman (Or maybe Robotnik works better in this case) even placed Sonic’s controls at his correct height!*
Hey, the flyng battery zone act 1 boss is actually wing fortress zone, Sonic 2 boss and chemical plant act 1 boss is actually Sonic CD Tidal Tempest boss

I like how all bosses that dont have origins are skipped, to me they're annoying to beat.
The patterns and attacks of the metal sonic phase 3 boss are from the death egg robot battle in sonic & knuckles phase 2
i still love the fact that they realized metal sonic's second phase sucked initially and they changed it to not only make it better but also add another Chaotix reference with the giant metal sonic
Giant metal sonic also mimics the Death Egg final boss movement from 3&k
I would say the big squeeze boss is acutely related to the wing fortress boss because your supposed to jump on the enemies to hit it
I refuse to believe the fact people go into the Death Egg Robot fight fearless and beat it in literally a whole minute.
14:26 in my opinion, this boss is inspired (almost copied) from Stage 3 of the final boss of the legendary Sonic & Knuckles / Sonic 3 & Knuckles
+
Good video, many callbacks to obscure titles. The only criticism I have is that stretching footage aspect ratio is a sin that has its own ellipse of hell.
