Sonic The Hedgehog 2 - Wizard's Challenge

For this game, the Wizard's Challenge involved the contestant collecting 25 rings in Emerald Hill 1 with a time limit of 30 seconds. The contestant got stuck at the loop when time ran out. IIRC this was a loss of 10 points. I take the same route the contestant took and complete the challenge in 18 seconds. In the contestant's run, she ran into the first enemy. To try to further mimic her route, I decided to do the same.

Why was the music for Star Light's Zone playing here?

[Groudon0199]

This was an early build of Sonic 2. In this build, Emerald Hill Zone is in Star Light Zone's level slot, and since they hadn't yet recorded new music, SLZ's music still plays.

The Sonic 2 in the show was an early prototype that Sega gave to Nick Arcade in order to get publicity for the unreleased game. She didn't know to spin dash because there was no spin dash move in the first Sonic game, you could only run and then hit down to roll. You can't expect someone to know how to do every move in a game they have never played within 30 seconds without ever seeing so much as a manual.

wasn't it Melissa Joan Hart that played Sonic 2? I feel bad that she lost the challenge.

OHHH NO FAIL!

Sonic's Movement was so much more fluent in the Prototype.

I know I can get 25 rings in under 30 seconds...but I am going to try to do it without the spin dash! ^_^

I wish they brought that show back...even if they used all games from the '90s...due to the lack of quality arcade games out now...it would be better than 90% of the crap that Nickelodeon has on now.
