>Sega (once again) implies that Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles

>>384432795
Well sure, they were released as separate games after all.
But the fact of the matter is Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles were originally supposed to be a single game. There are heaping piles of evidence to support this.

>are two different games
No shit. They were sold separately.

>>384433782
>It was intended, therefore it is.

Let's say hypothetically my dad intended to jizz in my mom's mouth the day of my conception. Does this mean I am not alive typing to you?

Didn't Sonic Generations count them as the same game, level-wise?

>>384434251
can't tell if you're being serious or not

getting all of that content onto one cart would be a challenge for them

>>384434251
no it literally means you are a mistake

>>384435221
>hypothetically means literally

where is 4?

>>384436749
Next to Sonic Adventure

>>384436749
4 was and always will be a pile of shit that Sega is eternally embarrassed about.

>>384436749
where is rush? where are the advance games?

>>384439324
>was and always will be
>eternally

Redundant.

Describing two different things. It is and will always be a pile of shit. Sega is eternally embarrassed about it.

In the trash, where it belongs

>Implying the K doesn't stand for Knuckles Chaotix

Suck it CDfags, even that shitpile is more canon than your game.

>>384432795
does that mean sonic 4 is sonic 5?

stop being retarded

>>384432795
What is the rationale for excluding CD from that lineup, though? Seems like it fits in perfectly with all of them.

>>384443208
sonic went back in time and cd never happened

>>384432795
you're forgetting the most important fact of that image: that sonic 4 never happened

>>384444146
How many times has that happened in Sonic?

Just CD and 06?

>>384443208
My guess is cd is after mania. Stardust speedway in mania looks like the past version of stardust speedway from cd. Meaning the past stardust speedway from cd is Manias current time.

I don't like this though because that means no metal sonic. Mania without metal sonic would be such a huge opportunity miss.
