The Sonic Origins tech review from digitalfoundry is in - and this classic Sonic collection falls just shy of greatness:
Sonic the Hedgehog's original 16-bit adventures are considered some of the best games in Sonic history and - for my money - some of the best games ever made. Since their original appearance, they've been re-released many times over, most often as little more than emulators paired with original ROMs. Sonic Origins is different though: a fully rebuilt suite of the original 16-bit games using the Retro Engine, the same tech that powered the brilliant Sonic Mania.
The other major drawback of the front-end is exhibited on the Switch version. Here, you get only a 30fps presentation and blurry image quality - a far cry from the 4K 60fps on PS5 or Series X. This reduces the overall fluidity of menu navigation on Switch; everything feels sluggish and blurry. Some of the beautiful animated videos included here also incorrectly scaled on Switch, which is a shame.The anti-aliasing setting doesn't seem appropriate for this game.
previously received a Retro Engine conversion. On the surface, it's a robust port with a lot of new features, and the closer you look, the more you notice small updates that make the game look better than ever before - from the updated water effects on the screen to additional frames of animation for bonus rings.
