Common card · No. 288064

Sonic Gems Collection is a 2005 compilation of Sega video games, primarily those in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is the successor to the 2002 compilation Sonic Mega Collection; while Mega Collection focused on the more notable Sonic games released on Sega Genesis, Gems Collection focuses on more obscure games from a wider variety of platforms, featuring the titles Sonic CD (1993), Sonic the Fighters (1996), and Sonic R (1997). Alongside these games, the compilation inlcudes six Sonic games for the Game Gear, as well as bonus unlockable content, such as promotional images, videos, demos, original music, and several non-Sonic games for the Genesis, some of which were omitted in the Western localization.

One game they wished to include, SegaSonic the Hedgehog (1993), was excluded due to emulation difficulties. Sega released Gems Collection for the GameCube and PlayStation 2 in August 2005...
