** Why on Earth would SEGA even consider hiring Jaleel White? Classic Sonic is NOT Dic's Sonic; he's a very different character (even if Dic's Sonic was based on him), and was never voiced by White (in the few [[SonicCD old school]] [[SegaSonicTheHedgehog games]] in which he could speak, he was voiced by someone else).



*** To clarify, while the PS360 version of the game has Seaside Hill to represent SonicHeroes, the 3DS version uses a boss instead, the Egg Emperor, that serves as a boss for the Modern Era.
* In the Metal Sonic fight, if you get the last hit in while he's electrified and you have no rings, you'll die. When the fight "restarts", the game will do the cutscene where Metal Sonic is defeated, but while the camera is still on the track, and still showing the timer and rings. The game will try to go to the results screen, but freeze at the white transition.

I would have added a video for the crab enemy too if I could find it on Youtube, but hey, I couldn\'t. So if I later come up with a link, well, it\'s not my fault.


** Classic Sonic's idle animations includes one that has him [[Sonic3AndKnuckles pointing to the right]]. He even does this when facing left, except with his thumb instead of with his finger.

** That's only going by the [=PS360/PC=] version of the game (''Heroes'' is considered to be part of the Modern era in the 3DS version) and purely for pragmatic reasons (so that there'd be an even number of stages per era), though.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: According to WordOfGod, they had hoped to make all acts playable by Classic and Modern Sonic alike. Indeed, it is possible to hack or glitch the game so that you can play Modern Sonic in Classic levels, viewed from a 3D perspective - the Classic levels look very unfinished when viewed in this way, however. The game reportedly crashes in various ways when attempting these hacks: e.g. when Classic Sonic trigger a rainbow loop, or when Modern Sonic doesn't stop after the Classic Finish Panel and fall through the level geometry... [[spoiler:You can, at least, unlock the Modern Sonic homing attack, à-la-Sonic 4, for Classic Sonic, after collecting enough red rings in the Modern Era Act 1 levels...]]
