In the "Ending" cutscene, the dialogue between both Classic and Modern Tails is different between the English and Japanese scripts. In the English script, Classic Tails asks Modern Tails where Sonic puts all of his collected Rings. In the Japanese script however, Classic Tails asks his Modern self how he could add legs to Sonic's Tornado model. Schreier, Jason (April 7, 2011). "Nostalgic Trailer Teases New Sonic the Hedgehog".

Sonic has become part werehog (because why not) and will transform every night into the burly beast while remaining his sleek, seedy self during the day. That 50/50 split almost perfectly reflects how much of this game is good. Nearly all the daytime stages, which feature classic Sonic gameplay of rushing across beautiful vistas at some of the fastest speeds we’ve ever seen, are considered good if not great great by most fans. Just the scale of some stages make you feel like you’re actually racing across huge regions of the world. They may even be some of the best 3D Sonic levels of all time. But you can’t just play the day stages alone, and eventually the ugly werehog will rear its head. Sonic Generations. PlayStation Store (AU). Archived from the original on April 3, 2018.

Development of Sonic Generations began after the completion of Sonic Unleashed in 2008, when developer Sonic Team began discussing possible ideas for a twentieth anniversary Sonic game. [28] The console/PC version of the game was directed by Hiroshi Miyamoto, and Yoshinobu Uba was the Lead Game Designer. Producer Takashi Iizuka wanted a game that incorporated the best of Sonic's history, and offered more replay value compared to previous games. [29] The team eventually decided to split the gameplay into two separate playstyles: one representing the original games and another representing more recent ones. [28] The team chose to develop on the high-definition (HD) Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 consoles, wanting the game to re-imagine levels and aspects of previous entries with high-quality graphics. [30] A port for Windows was also made; development was handled by Devil's Details. [31] Dimps assisted with production of the Nintendo 3DS version. Sega considered making the 3DS version a port of the console versions, but instead chose to develop from scratch to make it unique [32] and celebrate Sonic's portable history. [28] A version for the Wii was planned, but was eventually abandoned due to hardware constraints.
