If you simply must play classic Sonic the Hedgehog games wherever you go (the DMV, the toilet, in bed), then Sonic Classic Collection is the Nintendo DS game for you.
Available in early 2010, the game collections the first four games in the Sonic series -- Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and Sonic & Knuckles. The DS collection adds a new save feature to Sonic 1 and Sonic 2, as well as a special "history of Sonic" video.
"The Sonic Classic Collection will introduce a whole new generation of gamers to this beloved Hedgehog and take them back to his humble beginnings," says Sega's Vice President of Marketing, Sean Ratcliffe.
Yes, back to the humble beginnings. No more werehogs or 3D adventures, please. Who's with me on this?

Aside from the new project, thats the only sonic I'm interested in buying at this point.
I assume Sonic and Knuckles will actually work with all the games. Still waiting for that one to hit VC.
I'd really like to see a 3d Sonic game only using the Sonic Unleashed day time stage formula. I goddamn loved those stages.
Say what you will, but I thought Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 were damn good games on the Dreamcast.
Seriously though, I'd prefer to just have a new 2D sonic game than just keep replaying these four. They're great games and all, but I really would like to have something new.
What the Sega VP of Marketing meant to say:
"The Sonic Classic Collection will show a whole new generation of gamers that Sonic the Hedgehog did, indeed, have some good games in his humble beginnings, unlike the poo that has been released since" says Sega's Vice President of Marketing, Sean Ratcliffe.
Least it just goes to show that when Microshaft finally pull out of console production we'll see Halo and Gears of war on the PS4 or PS5 or whatever. Great. /sarcasm.
The Sega vs Nintendo console war was far less aggressive than the current matchup, sure it's got something to do with the internet.
And yeah, Sonic CD man. That's gotta be in there.
btw those on gba where pretty neat as well they should be compiled
