Common questions

Is the Genesis Sonic the same as the Game Gear version?

They are separate versions. Check the platform label to distinguish the Genesis game from the Game Gear and Master System releases, even when the title is the same.

How do I find the right controls?

Open the selected game page to check its keyboard, touch or controller settings. Different systems use different layouts; an arcade game may also require Coin and Start.

Can I save and continue later?

Check the selected player’s available save options before leaving. Return to the same game and edition to restore progress; saves are not interchangeable between versions.
