** This actually adds an additional layer of humor to the exchange as it implies that present Scott hadn't beat the special stages in Sonic 2 and thus wouldn't know that Super Sonic's first appearance was in that game. Which means at some point during his ten year isolation, Even Older Scott revisited the game and beat the special stages to unlock Super Sonic. His backpedaling being a way of avoiding spoilers for his past self.
