18:42 I have that middle plug and play with the red controller, it's the first version of Sonic 2 I ever played, where I was introduced to not only Sonic, but video games in general! It also includes _Ecco the dolphin, The Ooze, Columns, Gain Ground_ and _Alex Kidd & The Enchanted Castle._ The nostalgia hits hard with that one, I remember always wanting to play it as a kid, being super excited. Now I have the mega drive classics on my Nintendo Switch, which is how I play it now as I can't find where the plug and play has gone but it really isn't as bad as he is making it sound.

That footage of the original iOS Sonic 2 game is really cool to me as it’s like seeing part of my childhood again! I grew up playing that and Sonic 1, but I played it in an old iPad that really wasn’t good enough, so it ran at a similar speed to the 50hz PAL port of the original game.
