Summary

“Go! Go! Go! Go-go!” It could have been Sonic 3D, but the tech wasn't ready. In fact, the game itself wasn't entirely ready when it was due to release, leading to Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic & Knuckles coming out on separate (full-price) cartridges. Leon, Leah and Tony - along with community contributors - dash into the eventual complete title, Sonic 3 & Knuckles. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_637.mp3 Music featured in this issue:1.

0:00.0	Hello everybody and welcome to the Kana Rinse podcast, Volume 13, Issue 637, and today we're going to be talking about Sonic the Hedgehog
0:23.1	3 and Knuckles. Joining me, Leon Cox, in this issue, Leah Heydo.
0:29.3	Wop, what? Nice. Tony Atkins.
0:33.0	Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. And both, we're both drowning, are we? Yes. Yes.
0:45.8	Just the three of us today, but as you will hear, listener, there is much, much to talk about with this game or games.
0:48.7	What is Sonic 3 and Knuckles, if you don't know?
0:54.4	Well, it's a 16-bit 2D platformer that was released in two parts.
0:58.2	It's the third main game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series,
1:01.0	and it really is one game that was released in two halves.

1:18.9	the one that most people will have access to. Currently is Sonic Origins and you can indeed,
1:23.0	in fact, I don't think you can play them separately on that. It is Sonic 3 and Knuckles or nothing.
1:29.5	So there we have it.
1:32.1	Developer is Sega Technical Institute, not Sonic Team, specifically.
1:37.2	After the completion of Sonic 2, Sega Technical Institute split into two teams,
1:42.0	one compromised Japanese developers who worked on Sonic
1:44.4	3 and the American team worked on Sonic Spinball, which was...
1:49.8	Hey, hey, I like Sonic Spinball.
1:52.0	Yeah.
