The LAST Sonic Generations 3DS WiFi Match
Ойындар
Thank you Leonardo for joining my lobby! You beat me by a millisecond XD.
While everyone was probably streaming Mario Kart 7 before 7:00PM Eastern Time, I wanted to document an online function of a more obscure game, that being Sonic Generations 3DS which has an exclusive race mode.
The race mode however runs in 15fps and it's almost impossible to play. I was immediately disconnected after the round ended as all 3DS and Wii U servers shut down at the same time.
I'm sorry that the video and audio quality sucks. Capture cards for 3DS handhelds are extremely rare to come across as all of them have been discontinued for a few years now. Previous auctions have been up to $500 or $600 for one recording set. I will be uploading some content from the 3DS Internet Browser tomorrow. Subscribe for more content!

I mean, I can't possibly be the only one who noticed that... right??? Or could this video be from the perspective of the opponent???

I've noticed that I seemingly won after someone else pointed that out. I theorize that I was disconnected in the middle in the match which is why I "lost". I also received a "player quit the round" message after relaunching the game.
I was just thinking about this game (the 3ds version in particular) and how funny it would be if I played the online for it as my last online game. Small world
I never really liked this game, but I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel something watching this

If you're interested, I've seen Japanese 3DSes for 60 bucks on ebay, good quality too. You can even region swap it to have an American OS with English and all that. All for free besides the 3ds itself. You do have to homebrew it before you do that though.
Brings a smile to my face that this port wasnt forgotten, it was a fun sonic game, the exclusive content really kicked ass lol, spent hours playing this version because i didnt have an xbox. (Kid me thought the profile card was really cool for some reason) Always loved the online mode, thanks for recording its final moments!
Incredibly close match. What a way to end the game.
Thank you for documenting this. RIP Wii U and 3DS 2011-2024.
Miss the times when handhelds had exclusive spin off versions of the big main games. The 3DS Generations version really fullfilled the Generations handheld itch and even had exclusive worlds. Was pretty much like an expansion to the main game. A thing that sadly died with the Switch since now we get the same games just with less graphic details. Imagine a exclusive Sonic Frontiers with 2D classic like stages on handheld or whatever.

I know Sonic Generations 3DS is the black sheep, but the best thing without a about are its exclusive remixes to Big Arms and Radical Highway (and to an lesser extent Biolizard), of which people still listening and jamming to today.
The game just calling you a loser is really funny to me. Because i'm sure there's no maloce behind it, but it still just comes out if nowjere. Like another comment said it feels personal

Man..gotta pour one out for the 3ds, it has been..a trip. Loads of good games, fun times online..even if that 3d slider was a bit disorienting to play with it on, the system was still a _blast_ to play! Here's to a good system. 🍺
Lmfao, you literally finished first place
It's funny to see how you bump into boxes even after playing this hundreds of times
Still cool that you got to play the last sonic generations 3DS online match ever.

I didn't even know the 3DS version of Sonic Generations had an online mode. That's not surprising though, considering how I only have the version for PlayStation 3.

I should've tried this with _Final Fantasy Explorers._ I bet _nobody_ was playing _that_ game in its final hour.
When the servers were able to shit down, I managed to play Mario Kart 7 and Super Smash Bros. for the last time. I even got some footage, but the quality is poor since I was using my phone. I tried to play Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon multiplayer only to realize that I needed to make story progression for it to become available. Unfortunately, I just didn't bother with any other game's multiplayer, so I missed out on both this game but also Sonic Lost World's multiplayer, which is a shame.

I should’ve at least tried it 😔 I’m surprised you caught up near the end! This is a cool last level to play on. Also I didn’t know you could get hit by the orca on this map.

Being the last loss in a game ever sucks
I'm glad the game picked Emerald Coast. It would have been a bummer if the final race ended up taking place on Green Hill Act 1, which has level design that is ripped straight out of Sonic 1. Emerald Coast may not have the greatest level design, but it is at least a Gens 3DS original.
Still can’t believe Nintendo Network is really gone. RIP Also how has it been almost 10 years since Nintendo WFC shut down what
