Well, almost anything in that blank. I'm pretty sure the response to "Does it have the game-crashing bug where you spin as you exit Labyrinth Zone causing the camera to go too low and an error handler to pop up?" will be "What? No. What?!"

I hope they have the bug from Marble Zone where you jump on a moving block and Sonic just leaps up in his walking animation.

I always had that happen with the rock at the start of one of the GHZ acts. I kind of miss it tbh

I fear that the Mania team might be too good to leave deadly speed traps in the game.

Lock-on technology?

I'm almost sad Knuckles is in the base game - now we won't get a 6 level "& Knuckles" Lock-on expansion dlc.

The Taxman is the kind of guy who would program a bug on purpose then give you the option to turn it on or off depending on how authentic you want your experience to be

And I mean I'm semi-kidding but developers have actually done that before. The team that remade Ocarina of Time for 3DS purposefully left some bugs from the N64 in because they thought they were fun and would be disappointed if they weren't there.

Speaking of the Chaotix, I was just playing Sonic Classic Heroes and Chaotix the other day and boy howdy Charmy Bee really is one of the worst designed characters ever because goddamn he makes absolutely everything completely trivial and totally breaks the game.

However Vector, Espio and Mighty are all very cool. Espio is very cool because he's a chameleon who doesn't roll into a ball but is a tornado instead. Mighty is also cool because he's basically Sonic but can kick up walls like Mega Man X. Vector is my favorite though because he's a green crocodile who listens to music and rolls into a donut. He's also basically Knuckles but instead of gliding he has an 8-way air dash and is the most fun Chaotix guy to play.

I didn't mention Heavy and Bomb for obvious reasons, and that is all I shall say about them.

I also really dig those romhacks that put Amy in Sonic 1 and 2 and whatever and she plays like she does in Advance 1.

I have an important announcement to make.

I have just gathered the seventh chaos emerald in sonic 2 before finishing aquatic ruin act 2. I didn't save scum, or purposefully die. I beat all 7 on my first try like a complete badass...it was epic. I have never done this in my entire life before...here's proof in case anyone doubts my power.

Iirc Oot3d was built off the N64 code and still runs of the same engine as the original so that was just a nice excuse for them not to fix glitches already present in the game (several useful speedrun glitches did get fixed in the porting process and didn't get 'recreated').

S3&K complete proves your point tho, what with the option to toggle the S1 spike glitch etc.

Probably not as impressive, but I got super sonic at marble garden in Sonic 3 without save scumming or purposeful deaths in my current playthrough of Sonic3C. Never been much good at getting the super emeralds though.

I remember as a kid the only way I could get all the emeralds was by playing on a completed save file and just going to the first ring in Angle Island again and again.
