    I was always a huge knuckles fan so couldn’t wait for this release and actually being able to play as him, got it just after release for Christmas!

    The bonus of playing him in the older games with the special cart was even better, gliding across chemical zone like it was nothing! The practice for the special stages using sonic 1 was great too!

    Best character in that universe hands down for me!

      I played so much Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

      Also quite a bit of Sonic 1 & Knuckles. i.e., the blue spheres game.

            One of my favorites as well! I’m going to have to break out the Genesis again to get another playthrough

                I sold my OG’s as well, then lucked into a Genesis, Sega CD, and a 32x at a yard sale w/ about 10 games for each for $50.

                I ran away smiling!
