I grew up with the PAL version of Sonic games and listening to the music now frustrates the hell out of me because I now know it's completely wrong.

why does the song play in weird slow-motion? it hurt my brain to hear, like something was wrong with my perception of time suddenly

Beve Stuscemi

It plays slow because PAL (U.K., aus, etc) is 50hz and NTSC (USA, Japan, etc) is 60hz. Rather than fix the game to run right at 50hz, they just let it run 17% slower.

Granted, so many things in that era were built on or around tv refresh rates, fixing it for 50hz probably would have been a huge job.

I love that Bioware managed to make a Sonic RPG without giving Sonic a sword, even though that's kind of what they do, make sword games. Sega team turns around and for no discernable reason decide to give him a drat sword in a not RPG sonicy game.

As someone whose first video game was the PAL Sonic 1 with the 50hz soundtrack I just want to tell you all that it's the clearly superior version, and my argument for this is: everything was the best during my childhood

Pretty sure having actual music trumps not having a sword in terms of being a sonic game.

I think they fixed it with no issue in the next game though? Probably just the initial rushjob

Fixing stuff like making the music not run slow was easy and something that 90% of games did right even at the time, Sonic was just a dumb rush/didn't care job.

Didn't Sega announce a high-end emulator for release this year (and not the lovely ones already out)? It looked like a little master system.

Sega's doing this too? Is this turning into a trend? Does this mean we're going to have micro N64's with HDMI in 5-10 years?

Speaking of music as awesome as the Sonic stuff in Lego Dimensions looks I'm at least a little bit bummed after watching this that someone didn't want to/couldn't pay Nakamura for the Sonic 1 (and probably 2?) stuff. Or maybe my hearing is real bad and they are using the Green Hill Zone theme but like, some slightly off version of the original theme.

Hah, less time than that probably.

Technically the chipset inside the Nes Classic is more powerful than the Wii was, so it could easily emulate N64 games.
