Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball - Sega Genesis - No Commentary Longplay
Sonic Spinball is a fun, if inaccurate pinball ball where our favorite blue hedgehog is the ball. I say inaccuaret because the physics just feel strange most of the time. At first I thought it's because you can control Sonic a bit while shooting him around, but when I got to the mini games I see even in that strange perspective they were able to get pinball physics feeling right, so I don't know why they did it the way they did.
Still, it's a fun game, certainly worth a weekend rental here and there, which is how I played it as a kid.

This game was not easy to play. It made no sense, and each stage was too big, had many Chaos Emeralds to find and getting to each Boss was a nightmare.

I would never have the patience to play this game from start to finish. I'm glad someone did though :p
This was our first Genesis game. It took us a while to beat it. We got to know this game intimately.
This game scared the crap out of me as a kid idk why, but now as an adult it was the anxiety.

Can talk about the ending for a moment? They just dropped him SCREAMING into his own burning and collapsing tower! This game got DARK for a Sonic spin-off.

Happy 30th Anniversary to the classic Sonic game from the 90s. Also to Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog and the Satam series, too. Great vid play-through.
I remember playing this as a kid having no idea wtf was going on 😂 for sure I never beat the game. Listening now, the soundtrack was great.
Imagine this game had a time limit like the other games.

I used to play the hell out of this game. Two things I loved in one. Pinball and Sonic.
Wow I completely forgot about this game. Now that I'm seeing it again I remember everything about it, even the environment I played it in. Haven't played this since around 95, I was like 5 back when I played it when it came out lol. Love how these games I used to play bring me so many good memories too. I thank my brothers for introducing me to videogames, because of them I became proud gamer. So glad I grew up in this era of videogames 90's - early 2000's, the best era if you ask me.
Wait there’s more to this game then the first level?

I used to LOVE playing this game when I was a kid. I would spend hours learning all the different light up bonuses and tricks on every level to figure out the best strategy. So much fun.
This was my first genesis game. I only got to level 2 tho.
Switch online came out with sega games and saw this treasure. How this game had the biggest chokehold on me 😂😂😂 I played a game and had to force myself to stop otherwise I’ll be there all day
Awesome but difficult to beat! I managed to beat the game only one time!
Gosh, I remember playing this on the PS3 Sega Genesis Collection when I was 7. It was 2013 and I lived in Vegas back then. Sure, I was definitely in the newer generation of players to play this game, but boy the time still does fly like crazy. I’ve got divorced parents now, my PS3 is in storage, and I’m about to graduate high school. Man, I seriously miss being younger
This game needs a remake so bad.

For a 224p game to be perfectly scaled to 1080p without interpolation this had to be emulated. Also Genesis games use a 10:7 aspect ratio not 4:3.

Yeah I definitely don't have the money to mod my consoles and set up all the RGB stuff to capture clean footage. I don't think I claimed I was using a real genesis. The closest I can get on my budget is the Mega Retron HD, which does look good, but you'd notice graphic and audio inconsistencies and people who dislike emulation won't like that either soooo yeah still using emulation for now. Maybe someday! On aspect ratio, that's always a little tricky. Some developers made their games knowing they would be stretch to 4:3 on tvs and end up looking squished at the natural 10:7. This is an example of that. The rings, balled up Sonic and other circular objects look more or less round when stretched so I decided to stretch it for this one.

@@RetroGameStream Oh yeah, if you ever decide to get an original console with RGB Scart, HD Retrovision Component Cable, or even the new RAD2x, use nearest neighbor to integer 224p to the closest thing to the resolution you desire and use Bilinear or Bicubic for the rest. For 1080p I would 5x to 1120 and downscale to 1080p, or for 5K-13x to 2912 and downscale to 2880p.
Anyone else notice that both the spaceship and Robotnik himself glowed in sync with the volcano when it was erupting?

Im pretty sure nobody at sega had tested this game before releasing.
You could say sonic spinball is the sonic satam game due to the other freedom fighters appearing in the mini games.
My favorite Sonic!
I'm aware that some emeralds occur in blue but they could have at least made them green... I know they had the capability to...
i think this is the closest we got to having the archie/satam characters in a sonic video game
I couldn't b this game at all in the 90s
In the first level, there’s a way to get the other two emeralds with only one bridge up.
Man, how can you make Sonic go into the right direction? In the last stage, it's almost impossible to make it hit the right places.
Well, I still don't understand anything. Great playing though. :D
I just remember going around amoslee on the first level for a hour and giving up from bordom. I feel bad who got this game as a kid.
I think this game would have been better if it were more like a traditional pinball game where the only important thing is score. There could have still been some of the platforming elements though.
I actually beat this at like 11 or 12. Patience………
