Upon checking out the same level on the Xbox 360 version, the problem became clear; the Wii U version does not have about 75% of the Boost Pads that the 360/PS3 versions do, rendering the entire mode impossible to complete. To make matters worse, it must be cleared to move forward in the game, making any level past the fifth unreachable under normal circumstances.
A decade later, Sega's iconic racer is still a formidable foe to the Mario Kart franchise.
Yes, yes it is! Damn shame that Sega never made another sequel or even updated this one with new tracks and characters.
"The platform of choice, however, is the Xbox Series X."
Yessir, the game runs extremely smooth because of the frame rate boost. Still, till this day I play Sonic ASR with friends.
What are the best titles to feature the Blue Blur?
Good list. Personally I’d probably trade the Sonic CD game in this list for Sonic the Hedgehog (1), simply because CD is quite easy so you’ll blast through it, and the original Sonic was basically a new benchmark when it was released which blew everything and everyone at the time away. It also features my favorite zone, Starlight Zone.
I really hope one day we’ll be blessed with a Sonic Mania 2.
R was one of my first PC games along with Worms 2 and some others like Virtual Springfield. R was kind of good in a strange way i guess, i didn't hate it at the time.
Sonic CD was decent but I'd say i liked the music more, at least for the JP/EU version, some of the levels felt a bit all over the place and most of the bosses were odd and a bit too easy. Even though the system was a flop too it did have some very good games like Final Fight also which had some great music.

I don't blame the hardware but rather dev inexperience with it. That and expediency.
I am sure they can patch that to address the issue.
I play it daily online on my Wii U and haven't seem any issues , maybe it's isolated....
I was looking forward to this game, I've heard it's pretty hard but if I'll only be able to complete the easy modes because of this I don't see much point when there are quite a few other games I want during the launch window. I guess I'll have to keep my eyes open to see when this is patched and then get it.
Well a patch was said to be on the way according to sumo digital, its just getting approved by Nintendo
