South Island - The SegaSonic & Sonic Team Forum! Welcome to South Island! Pull up a chair, grab a daquiri (non-alcoholic of course) and chill next to the old airplane for a while. ^_^ This is the spot for the gamers to come in and chat on the ORIGINAL Sonic. It's not just SegaSonic on discussion here, but Sonic's anime incarnations(Sonic X, the Movie/OVA, etc.) and general Sonic Team - Yuji Naka, Naoto Oshima, Phantasy Star Online, NiGHTS Into Dreams, and Samba! By the way - watch for falling Chu Chu's! ^^ |

There ARE two blue emeralds.

One's like, cyan or something, though. Didn't S'06 call it the Sky Emerald or something?

How 'bout Pearlescent?

Now that I think about it, the whole Time Travel thing probably explains why there were six Chaos Emeralds in Sonic 1 and then seven in Sonic 2.

I don't think Sonic Team was thinking ahead that far. Why would they explain why there are 6 emeralds in Sonic 1, 15 years later? That's giving them
too much credit for which was most likely a hole in the story.

Who said they were thinking ahead? Retroactive explanations are fair game.

Does that also explain why there appear to have been 8 in (I think) Sonic 3D Blast?

You mean Sonic the Fighters..
Also, The events of Sonic 2K6 were wiped from existence so they wouldn't effect previous and subsequent game's stories.

How about we just say "Its magic" and let that explain everything.

"Chaos energy" surely?
Now you mention it, John, I'd forgotten Sonic the Fighters had 8. I still have this vague recollection that Sonic 3D did as well, but it has been an extremely long time since I played it on any format. DW

Nah, Sonic 3D Blast only has seven emeralds. Fighters and Spinball are the odd men out. Fighters has eight, and Spinball has 16, I think? All blue too.
COINCIDENSE!?

The easiest way to explain Fighters is that the orange one was a fake. Which one did Nack/Fang have before the tournament?
As for Spinball, I think we can all agree that it fits more in the SatAM(With no canonical Chaos Emeralds) or Archie(with a virtually endless number of Chaos Emeralds) universes. |

The emeralds in Fighters matched the characters that held them.
Red = Knuckles Pink = Amy Rose Yellow = Bark Maroon? = Espio Orange = Tails Purple = Fang Green = Bean Blue = Sonic

Okay, so the team behind Fighters completely screwed up with the Chaos Emeralds?
|

Toby Barrett |
|||
|
Pretty much, yes.

Recently I've been watching HellfireComms' playthru/commentary of Sonic '06, and I must say now that... it does not look at all like an appealing
game. And unlike them I HATED Sonic Adventure DX. I might just end up being one of those guys who only likes the 2D Sonics.
Nevertheless I propose more explanations for points raised in the playthru: 1. ELISE NEVER CRYING How can you keep a ten-year-old girl from crying? First, keep her chronically dehydrated. This is only temporary, as she'll soon be moving in with these people called "Fremen" for about five years. 2. AMY'S ABILITY TO BECOME INVISIBLE She's not really invisible--the Badniks are just ignoring her and hoping she'll go away. 3. HOW ELISE KNOWS SILVER WITHOUT EVER HAVING MET HIM She reads IGN. 4. THE EVER-CHANGING QUANTITY OF CHAOS EMERALDS Sometimes Knuckles gets mad, and... he hits things... 5. THE BEASTIALITY PROBLEM In Soleanna, having a demon in you makes you not-human, so anything goes. Got any others? |

Chalk up another one for you, but how did Blaze know what the Chaos emeralds were but not Silver?
And let's not forget the odd screw up of how Blaze was also from another dimension as well as from the future. ![]() Umbrella chao <3 |

1. Blaze aced the Important Backstory quiz in high school. Silver slept through that class.
2. Blaze was drunk when she wrote her resume, put down two different origin stories, and Sega wasn't sure which one to go with. Both origins are false as Blaze is obviously from New Jersey. |
