Sonic Thumbs UP!In the 16-bit era Sega, was in the unique position of having three simultaneous platforms to support: Genesis, GameGear and Master System. Sonic was released for all three, and was released for the most capable system first, then ported to older (but still supported) hardware.

After uncountable hours poring over screenshots from truly awful Master System and GameGear games, may I please present: The (2D) Life and times of Sonic the Hedgehog.

Brandon's note: He also did a Castlevania sprite history that might be of interest to some. No DS games included though.
