In Lost World, Modern Eggman is alive and well, but the question is, how did he get out of White Space in the first place? I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't regard this scene as serious as other fans and that while the small post-credit even is canon, just how they left is of no concern to the over-all lore.

My guess Modern Eggman vaguely remembered someone told him ages ago what to do on the off-chance he was ever trapped outside of time and taught his classic self how to do it.

That's a good point. However, they did connect the ending of Colors to Generations so it's not too far out of the question.
