Genesis Sonic definitely going portable
Not even a week ago, we brought you news that the BBFC had rated a new game called “Sonic Classic Collection“, containing the four major Sega Genesis Sonic games as well as a couple of other goodies – but no platform for the collection was listed.
Thanks to the OLFC in Australia, we now know that Sonic Classic Collection is, indeed, slated for release on the Nintendo DS. Unfortunately, that’s about all the new information in the classification article – the game’s release date, let alone whether or not it will hit America – is currently unknown (though for that last one, it’s hard to imagine a scenario where us Americans won’t be getting the collection).
We should expect an official announcement from Sega any day now. Stay tuned.

This is great for gamers that travel, so they should be thrilled.
Me? Not so much. I’d absolutely adore a portable Mega Man collection, but that’s a different disscussion.
Called it.
Well, not so much “called it”, more like “knew it”.
I dream one day Sonic CD will get some much deserved love! Cool news anyway.
@ Dr.Eggfang : don’t get it =/
I’ll probably get this. i wonder if it’ll have two player action? or extras?
wonder how the it’ll work with the two screens?
Sweet I hope it comes to the US I`d love to have this
This would be awesome if it
A) Looked and played just like the Genesis classics
B) They finally included Knuckles’ Chaotix for fuck’s sake
C) And Sonic CD
D) Wouldn’t this be perfect for SegaSonic the Hedgehog Arcade? Stylus, man. Stylus.
And if there’s still room after that (unlikely probably), throw in the GG/SMS games too. Maybe even 3D Blast for schitz n’ giggles.
I knew that the Sonic Chronicles trailer being present meant this would be on DS. All those people who said we were wrong… GET A LOAD OF THIS!
(Eggman-adventure quote XD)
Why are people acting like Sonic fans are wasting their money on every game?
Ever heard of TT DS or R4 cards?
Definitely ‘picking this up.’ XD
Oh, please, please, PLEASE be a better adaption than the failed attempt at getting the original Sonic the Hedgehog on Gameboy Advance…
It be cool to see what they might do with 2 player.
Instead of the two screens together like in Sonic 2, they could now have player 1 on the top and player 2 on the bottom if they do something online with it.
Also be cool what they do for the 2 screens for the games as 1 player, hopefully something kind of interesting… maybe it could even let you have the second screen to view tails, so then the when a second player plays on there DS as tails they can actually see what there doing and not just always stay on sonic, but still view where the first player is on the 2nd screen… except tails couldn’t be invincible or it be cheating then 😛
I hope that made sense… >.>
Just seem kind of a cool idea, just don’t know how it would work with the others, but this would be cool for Sonic 2 & Sonic 3.
Hey! Another way to buy games that I already own on my Mega Drive, Saturn, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, Wii, GameCube, Xbox, Windows PC, Linux PC… Let’s celebrate! Here’s to too much money; not enough sense! Let’s start seeding the pirated versions!

THIS.
@Rolo
Will that is true but the collection wasnt all Sonic related it mostly had Sonic 1 and 2 which wasnt the complete collection also theres more Sonic fans on the DS not the PSP and in this collection there have not just Sonic 1 and 2 but also Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles and more stuff
If you oppose it, don’t buy it. If it’s a good deal for you because you like portables, buy it.
Why isn’t it that simple? I don’t get why it upsets people so much. It costs very little for Sega to port games, and games like this help finance the bigger budget titles. People act as if easy profit is a bad thing. The reason why Sonic Unleashed can be a low profit title and be a success if because of high-profit , easy developed titles.
Viva la rmakes. And seriously, if Capcom and Konami would port their titles like Sega…I’d be a much happier gamer.
Ohoho, looking forward to this ^.-
Just to let TSSZ News know, they have the boxart for Sonic Classic Collection:
