I don't think Amy can be playable in classic Sonic without curling up into a ball.

The key difference between classic games and the Advance trilogy is that classic Sonic is a 1 button game, while the Advance trilogy is a 2+ button game.

She's a hedgehog. She has more of a justification to roll into a ball than Tails does.

I think the major reason we haven't gotten an Advance rerelease is that THQ has the distribution rights in NA (and some other company has the rights in EU). I think this may have been resolved recently? But with Sega who knows.

Sucks because the Advance series is becoming overlooked as time goes by. One thing I didn't appreciate back then is that the OST is surprisingly good, even with the GBA's limitations. There are some really great tracks across the three games.

Did someone say Advance music?

Man, I love Music Plant Zone. Not just because the music is freaking fantastic, but also because the concept is so inventive. I love music themed levels in platformers. They're so rare, though.

At least the Rayman games always try to have a "music world." Though the last Rayman game was Legends and that was ages ago, so meh.

Always thought Ocean Base's went way hard for a level so early on. It's like the game was telling you, "okay, difficulty spike" and it was lol.

One gripe I have with the Advance games is making Chaos Emeralds a ballache to get. Along with relegating Super sonic to final boss only and that utterly unforgivable shit with Amy in Advance 2.

I liked Amy as a chaos emerald reward and found her play style much better in advance 2. Truthfully I liked all the gba games with advance 2 and battle being my favorites.

I didn't exactly care for Amy as an unlock, especially given Advance 2 is when they make her a full on Sonic clone.

She still has some of her unique traits, but she feels way less unique to me.

She is less unique.

Her hammer swing is essentially a better insta-shield...considering how bad it is in the Advance games.

So her only unique move is her hammer jump, which...in Advance 2 is useless due to its faster paced and less exploration based level design.
