Possibly because one of them has a price Broken but the other one has that part fixed but that one has a broken part too and the other has that part fixed.
Don't forget to try Combining Sonic 2, Sonic CD, Sonic 3, Sonic and Knuckles and the cleaning system or whatever to get Sonic 3CD & Knuckles & Knuckles

Much like I wonder why I counted them. It's a mystery up there with the Voynich Manuscript, my friend... a mystery we may never solve... at least I got over my hangover, so that's cool.
Seriously, ever since I was 6 years old I wondered what would happen when you put Sonic and Knuckles on top of another Sonic and Knuckles cartridge. Turns out, you get Sonic and Knuckles. Who knew...
Actually, to my understanding, Sonic3 doesn't have a battery in it. It instead saves with a very early version of flash memory. As for the extra save files, I'm not sure if that's because the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge has save memory of its own, or if the two extra files are deliberately locked away on the Sonic3 cart unless it's locked onto Sonic & Knuckles (considering Sonic3 was pretty much made with future connectivity in mind, S&K being split off from Sonic3 during development in order to meet a deadline, this would make sense).
Legend has it that the whole world rests upon a giant Sonic & Knuckles cartridge, which itself rests upon another, and another…. it’s S&K all the way down.
LBPPlayer7 Sonic 3 doesn't have a lockon feature, and considering you can only stack one cart on sk, you wouldn't be able to do both sonic3 and sonic cd

Sorry. Normally in place of "and knuckles, I would use a clever pun. Unfortunately, I was unable to think of one. So what you're left with is And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles And knuckles
Fun fact: Sonic 3 & Knuckles were originally going to be all in one game. But due to time constraints, Sega was forced to make them into separate games.
They tell of a legend. The legend of The Tower Of Sonic And Knuckles. The gamers attempted to build a tower to touch the heavens, and knuckles. but it angered sega, so they sent a cease and desist, thereby stopping construction, and knocking the tower down. this divided up the sonic universe, and fanbase as we know it.
It would take me at least 15 tries each go, especially when we consider there are 3 connections on most tests! (console to s+k, s+k to s+k, s+k to sonic 2)
That would be an interesting idea, having the acts from Sonic & Knuckles be twice as long if there are two Sonic & Knuckles games. I'm not sure if it's possible, but I think someone should make that Rom hack.

I've got two copies too. I thought I fried the first one when I put the 32X into the top of it :0 These pieces of hardware are so tweaky that it's hard to nail down what actually happens, minus random variation.

For a sec, I thought the Sonic & Knuckles Title would be changed to Sonic & Knuckles & Knuckles. THAT would've been every kid's dream back in the 90s. 😂🤣😂
The lock on cartridges were actually a really cool idea. Shame it didn't catch on. Could have been used for a variety of cool things that otherwise weren't possible during that era, like your save data for one game impacting what you could do in that game's sequel.
Takes me back. I bought my sonic 3 used from the VHS store and it was from the US and needed a golden cart (called a honeybee i think) to run on my UK megadrive. You plugged the honeybee in first and sonic 3 on top. And then with sonic and knuckes i wasn't sure it wouldnt work, but it did. The similar three cart tower was my daily experience lol.
Explanation: A top S&K on a bottom S&K causes the bottom to simply "pass through" the game, like a lot of incompatible titles that don't generate a No Way!. Great find! S&K also has no internal save data; that data is held on the Sonic 3 cart, separate from S3, explaining why your saves came up normal.
This also means in theory you could stack a million Sonic and Knuckles carts and it'll still play whatever's on top, if your Genesis/MD doesn't explode.
Hello, I conducted the same thing you did but with six cartridges. I linked your video in the description to let people know that I'm not the only one who did it.
My one goal in life is to purchase enough copies of Sonic & Knuckles to stack it up to my ceiling, in a Sega Genesis Model 3 with RF output into a flatscreen TV in 16:9 stretched aspect ratio
Knuckles and Knuckles, starring Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles, Knuckles, and Knuckles. Co-starring knuckles. With a special guest, Knuckles
@@Beansman-gp3ws Chill out dude. It was only scrapped because the game had to be rushed out. On another note they didn't have to add Sonic 2 compatibility. That is new content, by the way, since it couldn't have happened if Sonic 3 got released in one cart. Your claim that nothing in Sonic & Knuckles is new is invalid.
gamers in a container Apparently they wanted to get it out on time for a McDonalds and Sega promotion for Sonic 3 toys, so they had to split it in half.
+Liam3072 You've got me thinking. Is there actually a Guinness World Record for the tallest working game system? Nowadays would obviously be Arcade systems, but if it can be done with infinite Sonic and Knuckles cartridges (probably with supports) could it break a record?
even me i won't take that risk this is the best video with sonic 1 2 3 & knuckles i never see i like it the lock on technology is the best invention in all video games cool test dude
You're running the cart at the bottom regardless of how high you stack them. The way it works is that S&K maps the address space of the cart plugged into it after the S&K ROM mapping, and decides what to do. The game code is stored on the S&K cartridge, using static assets (levels, sprites, etc) from Sonic 1 or Sonic 3. Sonic 2 works a little differently - the S&K cart maps Sonic 2 into memory as with the other games, but then it patches the Sonic 2 region with a separate ROM on the S&K cartridge and jumps execution into the patched version of Sonic 2. It decides what to do by identifying the cart plugged into it - if it's anything other than Sonic 1, 2, or 3, then all it does is use the cart data to generate random 'blue spheres' stages.
If you put in sonic 1, you still get the no way blue spheres stages, but you can pick the stage manually, and if you put in sonic 3d blast, due to it also using tricks to get more memory than normally allowed, sonic and knuckles looks for the header halfway through the cartridge, fails to recognize anything, and then boots up sonic and knuckles alone.
Here's an interesting thing to try, Use the extra save file with sonic 3 on two sonic & knuckles, then take the game out, and try the sonic 3 cart individually on each sonic & knuckles cart, and see if it saved to the top or bottom one.
