* After defeating the standard final boss, Dr. Eggman's "Phantom Egg" battle suit cracks in half. The ''literal'' Eggman then falls out and [[ManChild starts flopping in frustration]] [[VisualPun like a baby]].

** Tails looks just as confused, if a little less so since him being a lot smarter than Sonic means he's probably more familiar with ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyo'' than Sonic was. It's a battle of the geniuses!

** Just the fact that Eggman was considerate enough to lower the controls so all the playable characters can use it.

** One of the comments under the linked video above has another amusing interpretation: the pairs are not from the tester's perspective, but from the character chosen by the machine. Sonic has Amy as the best choice because [[SmittenTeenageGirl she's obsessed with him]] (and is utterly disappointed while he's only surprised when he falls on Eggman), Tails has Sonic because they're {{best friend}}s (and he's ''slightly'' [[PrecociousCrush overexcited]] [[HoYay about this]]), both of them have Eggman as the worst choice because of how many times they ruined his plans in the past, Knuckles has [[FoeYayShipping Eggman]] [[CrackPairing as the best choice]] (to his own confusion) because he's easy to manipulate, while Sonic is the worst (and is pissed by it) because [[ManipulativeBastard the doctor wants them to remain rivals to serve his goals]].

** Another amusing interpretation (which can be found under the comments of the video linked above) is that the pairs are not from the tester's perspective, but from the character chosen by the machine: Sonic has Amy as the best choice because [[SmittenTeenageGirl she's obsessed with him]] (his head on the machine shows an enormous deception, while he is only surprised about Eggman), Tails has Sonic because they're {{best friend}}s (and his face on the machine is ''slightly'' [[PrecociousCrush overexcited]] [[HoYay about this]]), both of them have Eggman as the worst choice because of how many times they ruined his plans in the past, Knuckles has [[FoeYayShipping Eggman]] [[CrackPairing as the best choice]] (to his own confusion) because he's easy to manipulate, and thus Sonic is the worst (Knuckles' face is angry at this precise choice) because [[ManipulativeBastard the doctor wants them to remain rivals to serve his goals]].

* When Ray is crossing the hang bars in Flying Battery, rather than simply pulling himself along with his hands like the other characters, he uses his hands and tail to ''flip'' across them. It looks adorable, too.

* In yet another case of BondVillainStupidity, Dr. Eggman finds the most interesting way to confront the aforementioned tiny Sonic is to drive a gashapon dispenser machine called Gachapandora. Several miniatures of the rides he had in [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 Emerald Hill]] and [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 Marble]] come out of capsules to attack you, along with Amy dolls sporting Tails Doll's vacant eyes and antenna which try to hug you '''to ''death''''' (by explosion). To cap it off, once the dispenser runs out of stuff, you must spin the crank one last time for Eggman himself to slide out.

* You can get a [[AchievementSystem Trophy/Achievement]] for riding boats in Hydrocity Zone. The description for it? "We really like boats."

* [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog3 Hydrocity Zone]]'s Act 1 boss involves you [[HoistByHisOwnPetard turning Eggman's machine from the original game against him]].
