Same here, actually!

My first Super Sonic score was in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. HA!

I can't get more than 3 emeralds in Sonic 2 to this day, so the first time I got Super Sonic was Sonic 3.

Hey! I was playing my friend's copy of Sonic 3, and I had yet to get a Chaos Emerald in Sonic 2.

SInce then, however, I've gotten them all in my favorite game of all time!

First time I saw Super Sonic, it was in the Game Genie manual on the floor of my brother's room.

Our curious 4-and-5-year-old eyes both looked at it and said "What's that?" so we plugged in the code and watched the magic happen. It was awesome. 😀

Ever since, our "Sonic and Tails" games became "Super Sonic and Super Tails" games (which really didn't change all that much) :3

Ditto. Though I found out through the cheat code via EGM since I could never get more than 3 Emeralds either. XD

Sonic Advance. <_

Unfortunately, we'd gotten rid of our Genesis years ago, and since I was at oldest three when last we had it, I could barely get half-way through Sonic 2. Sonic Adventure was also ripped from me thanks to the infernal Big levels. (PRESS B TO SNAG, DANGIT!)

I thought it was so cool, I beat it about three times in a row. XD

Playing as Super Sonic the first time is such a memorable moment. In Sonic 2, it was like as rare as seeing a blue moon for me (it took me FOREVER to get the Chaos Emeralds at the time).

The feeling was incredible, because he just flew through everything in the blink of an eye. It was a breath-taking experience, and I want to run through stages with him in these next-gen games. 🙁

First time for me was most likely that issue of the Archie Sonic comic when Super Sonic first apeared to fight the Universal Salamander. It still looks cooler than the Biolizard at least (which isn't saying much about either of them). XD

I didn't own a Mega Drive back then, so I only got into Sonic on the Master System and Super Sonic never appeared in any of those games. First time in a video game would've been Sonic 2 on the Mega Drive.

I saw him become Super Sonic in Sonic 2.

But, seeing it happen in 3D on Sonic Adventure 1... It was simply amazing.

Sonic 2 on the MegaDrive. The morning before my 2nd year university exams. Rather than study for my Spanish exam, I decided a far better way of spending my morning would be to gain all the Chaos Emeralds using the reset cheat so I'd have them from Emerald Hill onwards, then complete the game.

I loved the sheer speed, although later on in the game it was annoying to have to watch the ring count like a hawk so you didn't accidentally activate him in time to run out of rings just before the boss...

I completed the game and amazingly I passed the exams too Happy days!

I've seen Super Knux in S3&K because my secondhand MegaDrive version had all the emeralds. I've still not managed to get all of them myself, alas. I think the time has also come to beg Craig to finish Sonic Adventure for me

DW

Dang. I have YET to get those last two emeralds in Advance...

First time I actually saw Super Sonic was in Sonic the Comic, not just in the stories but also a screenshot, first time I played as Super Sonic was in Sonic 2, I never got all the Emeralds with Sonic so I must have used the cheat, though I can't remember what the cheat is.

I know this is pathetic, but Sonic Adventuure 2... Battle. Yeah, I've only been a fan since 2002. Go ahead and laugh.

I'm not gonna laugh. I'm only gonna ask you how you like the series so far.

I think I might've actually seen him first in Sonic the Comic [before Super became 'truly' evil]

but game-wise, it was probably with the cheats in Sonic 2 tbh ^^;

although, funnily enough, I can't actually remember buying Sonic 3 & Knuckles [whether I had Sonic 3 1st, or S&K 1st, I don't know], but from when I first locked them together, ALL of the game was already 100% completed!

That included having all the Emeralds and Super Emeralds with each character - both S&T, Tails on his own, and with Knuckles too. There was just no Sonic on his own on there, but obviously that was irrelevant and I didn't care

Sonic takes offense at that.

(spindashes the Growler to death)

i used to sometimes get so frustraited with sonic 2 that i'd use the de-bug cheat, turn myself into a ring and zoom past the difficult areas. >>;
but when i used the cheat to become super sonic, ahh~ them were the days.

How do I like the series? I'm probobaly as obsessed as I would be had I started in 1991.

The first time I SAW him was in Sonic Blast for the SMS. Despire not being playable, if you finish a level uberfast while collecting loads of rings there's a chance you might get a SuperSonic end-of-level sign.
When I saw that I kept on wondering what it was.. and thinking it might be a secret character or something like that I tried playing the game over and over finishing the levels with as good a score as possible.
Then when I played Sonic 3 I finally discovered what it was.. I loved to plan out my paths through the levels so that by Hydrocity Act 2 I'd have Super already.

Sadly it took to Sonic Adventure for me to finaly play as Super Sonic

Ditto. God gave me a blessing thouse two days - I manage to get through THREE (or Four) Fishing levals IN ONE DAY.

But, Im 14 so I have an exuse for not seeing Souper Sonic back in the old school days.

And Knuckle Sandwich

And Fish Tails.

Sonic 2 man, the only way! It was via code, since I never thought that getting all the Emeralds did a damn thing back then, but now I know...I KNOW THE TRUTH!

The best "GOING SUPER" moment would have to be Transforming into Hyper Sonic in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, with the stars, and the flickers and the zing...and the Flavin'
