Dcubed Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Switch of course! Home and away? Easy choice really.
Kaepora_Gaebora Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Didn't realise it was out so soon! I'll be getting this on Switch probably on day one I imagine
S.C.G Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 ALL possible formats most likely, because I'm that much of a crazed Sonic fan.
Cube Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I'll be getting it on PC - I have the Street Fighter 360 Fight Pad which is perfect for Sonic games.
Aneres11 Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 I'll be Switch and PS4. I'm a whore for Sonic so will definitely want a copy for Switch for lunch breaks next week and PS4 for trophy goodness.
Blade Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Switch!! I absolutely adored the Megadrive games. They were the games of my childhood. I'm really looking forward to this 1
Hero-of-Time Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 PC version has been delayed until the 29th August. Console versions still arriving on Tuesday.

Agent Gibbs Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 I have the special edition ordered with amazon for the Switch, sill wish it had a physical cart not just a download code

SEGA delaying a game to ensure quality!? We really have entered the Twilight Zone! All the more signs that this game is gonna be the tits
Jimbob Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 Preloaded Sonic Mania on the PS4, 1 day 5 hours (and something) until it unlocks. That includes the 3 themes too. Probably taking my Vita to work on Tuesday, hook it to the internet and get more Sonic in during lunch.
Shorty Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Seriously excited for this I hope it captures some of the atmosphere of S3&K. 1
Ronnie Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Getting great reviews! This'll look gorgeous on the Switch screen
Lens of Truth Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Does anyone know when this will go up on the eshop? So hyped!! Only been waiting since 1994 1
S.C.G Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Knowing Nintendo, it'll probably be up on the eShop at 2PM in the afternoon, which isn't good enough, so I hope I'm wrong. Either way I've got it pre-loaded on my PS4 ready to play at midnight, my Switch code should arrive tomorrow with the Collectors Edition, which could mean I end up playing the Switch version before it's finally released on the eShop as well because I believe pre-paid download codes work differently. I really, really hope this is put up on the store sooner rather than later. 1

Hero-of-Time Posted August 15, 2017 Posted August 15, 2017 I managed to download the game and finish Green Hill Zone before setting off for work. Loving what i've played so far. I was scouring the stages for quite a bit but only managed to pick up 1 Chaos Emerald. Also, what are the tokens for that you get in the Sonic 3 type special stages? I nabbed a few of them ( think I exhausted the amount of times these stages appear as they stopped showing up for me ) but I have no idea what they do. Looking forward to putting some more time into to it later today.
Happenstance Posted August 15, 2017 Posted August 15, 2017 I was hoping to be able to download the game before my internet went down today before the switchover, no such luck unfortunately. Looking forward to playing it.

Looking forward to putting some more time into to it later today. Not sure, they appear in the extras menu though. I figured you use them to unlock stuff? Played until 1am, kept wanting to see what stages we're next. Managed to get 2 Chaos Emeralds, I knew I would suck at the special stages. The gaint rings are pretty hard to find, I only found 3. Didn't think playing Blue Sphere so late while tired would be a good idea. Had a glitch in one of the new stages where the music stopped playing. Feels good playing a good Sonic game, couldn't stop smiling during the intro. 1
Dcubed Posted August 15, 2017 Posted August 15, 2017 Apparently there's a bug with the game that prevents you from using the capture or home button in handheld mode... https://gonintendo.com/stories/287595-sonic-mania-might-have-a-screenshot-menu-issue-in-handheld-mode That's a real shame. Might just wait until they patch it before I play it.
Kaepora_Gaebora Posted August 15, 2017 Posted August 15, 2017 What a great blast from the past this is so far! Not going for too many secrets in the first play through, just balls to the wall speed like I used to play on my Megadrive as a kid! Great level design so far, the need for speed is real 1
