User blog:Myself 123/Myself's Unofficial Sonic Games Timeline

The title says it all, I thought it would be fun to list what I perceive to be the order in which each Sonic game happens. For the most part, these games will be in the order they were released, but for those that don't, I'll try my best to explain why I think they belong there. And don't forget, this my unofficial timeline, so don't try to use it as fact. Let's begin.


 * Sonic the Hedgehog (1991, both versions)
 * Whilst both versions of the game differ in content, the overall story is the same. I would regard this as a "one or the other" situation. So when I say "both versions", this is what I mean.
 * SegaSonic the Hedgehog
 * Sonic Mania Plus' art book suggests the game took place awhile ago and while SMP is set it it's own dimension, it still shares some history. I do not believe it takes place in-between Sonic 2 and 3 for reasons I'll explain later. Sonic also doesn't know the Spindash.
 * Sonic CD
 * Similar reasonig as SegaSonic, sans SMP.
