the reason i want mighty in sonic heros and the other games because he was the "strong" character i never saw Vector punch a robot or lift a damn tree so when i saw vector as Team Chaotixs "strength character" i had the WTF face!!!!!!
Funfact: the might sprite used in knuckles chaotix is just an edited version of sonic's sprite. You can see it better when you compare the sonic sprites from sonic crackers to the might sprites in chaotix.
Basically, Mighty took the place of Sonic for one known reason: There will be insane glitching through walls if Sonic goes too fast and jump into walls. Since Sonic is insanely fast, it can be worse. Even as Mighty, speed glitches have happened.
No, that's the point of this hack. It felt lonely without Sonic in a Sonic game, so they put him in.
Though I STRONGLY disagree with the choice to use Sonic 1 sprites. Sonic just doesn't look part of it. They should have at least used Sonic 3 sprites, and probably even remastered those a little. Knuckles just looks so much...fresher than Sonic and it's bothersome.
Or maybe I'm just not used to Sonic 1 sprites among Knuckles sprites in general.
The sprites are pulled from a prototype of Knuckles Chaotix. Dubbed "Sonic Crackers" by the title screen and "Sonic Studium" in the ROM header, the prototype features sprites of Sonic and Tails in the dual-ring setup.
lol, I'm aware of the whole Sonic Crackers thing, I've had the ROM since I was 10. (I was always mesmerized by the lack of gravity when walking up a rolled-corner wall, lol) I was just wondering why the guy who hacked this Chaotix ROM didn't use more modern sprites. They would have looked a lot better.
same thing happened to me, kinda. I didn't realize that the game was actaully for the (at the time) brand new 32X. My dad bought it for my birthday.. you can imagine a young kid trying to jam an oversized cartrage into a sega genisis, while crying. I wonder if that's what killed the 32X..
the game was 32bit memory that's why they had the 32X. Just too bad the unit wasnt developed properly otherwise it would have had better game support.
This was originally supposed to Sonic the hedgehog 4 AKA sonic crackers, featuring sonic and tails. but that was scrapped and reshaped to be knuckles chaotix.
I can't get it to work. Mighty should have been in Sonic Heroes, just copy Sonic's Model and add Mighty's features and colors. But Sonic should have been in this game.
@EurythmicsSL92Player well with that all 3 members of the sonic team(heroes) got his own game as main char(tails is sky patrol(or something like that))
@Xaragon64DS It's not that Sonic was suppose to be in the game, but that Mighty is older than Sonic and was the basis on how they designed Sonic (thus the striking similarities).
@MrJollyJester I am aware of Mighty being a prototype character-design for Sonic (Sonic was selected in favor of the quills and blue Sega color.) Mighty and Sonic were made at around the same time. I'd rather play as a character I'm familiar with than a different character who behaves very similarly, just seems like a ripoff if I don't have the choice to play as Sonic. We couldn't get to know Mighty when he wasn't in the games. Mighty & Knuckles? Great, but I'd rather Sonic & Knuckles.
@Xaragon64DS Actually, Mighty wasn't designed at the same time. While it is true that Ohshima had conceived of an armadillo before he finally designed Sonic the Hedgehog, it wasn't actually Mighty. Mighty was designed by Manabu Kusunoki. Of course, it was never made clear until recently that this was indeed the case. So no worries there. Now the only thing we have to see is what that armadillo actually looked like, though who knows if we ever will...
@MrJollyJester: Well you got to remember that this game started out as Sonic Crackers,so basically Sonic was always planned to be in the game from the start before it got changed to this to be Knuckles's game.
Yeah I know. Tails was supposed to be in the game too, and it was originaly going to be called Sonic Crackers, but the idea was scraped and then was reshaped into the Knuckles Chaotix. On that note, did you know that Mighty was originaly supposed to be in Sonic Heroes as Team Chaostix's power guy and not Vector. Apparently, they couldn't find a way to give him a modern design, so they put Vector in instead.
How do you keep the game from freezing when you start a level? When I start my game, it works perfectly until you start a level. Then, the characters start spinning like normal until a certain point, then the game freezes, but the music keeps playing.
Mighty's sprite is exactly the same as Sonic's in Sonic 2 but with the ring. This game was Sonic Crackers with Sonic & Tails. Sega didnt Sonic to be a part of the failing 32X system, so they put Knuckles' as the main character and altered Sonic's color pallete to turn him into Mighty. Also, the tower levels is almost exactly the same as in Crackers.
tails is also in it from sonic crackers his sprites were taken out but you can play as "him" in debug mode which is wechnia. If someone made a hack of this game with sonic and tails.
You're both right and wrong 067077. He did hack Sonic into it but Sonic isn't behaving like Mighty, but it's the other way around. Sonic was originally supposed to be in this game as Sonic Crackers but latter got changed into what it is now, and all of Sonic's data got transfered into Mighty, who is nothing more then an edited Sonic sprite.
Mighty isn't anything to do with Sonic. In fact, the graphics between Knuckles Chaotix and any of the odl sonic games are different. Mighty is in a game WITH sonic. Here sonic is just a recolor, or else they would've both been in.
I don't know, but I think so. technically speaking, I think this kid opened the file containing all the data on mighty, and replaced the mighty sprite with a sonic sprite. that's how he's playing as sonic. Since he left all of mighty's physics unaltered, that's why sonic is behaving exactly like mighty.
I don't know if many people remember this but Knuckles Chaotix was created from another prototype Sega game. Sonic Crackers-This game was the original Chaotix game, where Sonic and Tails were partners chained by the ring as well. The reason sonic's sprite works in chaotix is because chaotix has the same data in it as crackers, so therefore he'll work 100%. As to how this guy got it to work, perhaps he moded a rom, or found a hack online. I dunno google it.

You know, I think about it in two ways.
1. Mighty was the replacement of Sonic.
2. Heavy and Bomber were the replacements of Sonic and Tails.
1. It's logical, since Mighty is almost fucking IDENTICAL to Sonic.
2. It's logical, since those 2 were just unknown weird-asses, plus they were blue and yellow in the combi-catcher.
