That checkerboard design. The checkpoint marker. The blue skies. Yup, it's only freakin' Green Hill Zone.
This stage appears in Brawl when you unlock Sonic, and features the same collapsible levels and looping track that were there in 1991. And, in possibly the neatest touch of all, you'll occasionally see Knuckles, Tails, and Silver tearing past you in the background. Is there anything more awesome than Sega stuff randomly popping up in Nintendo games? (At this point, please imagine us sighing in a happy, nostalgic fashion).

Yes and I hope the original green hill zone music is still there as well :)

The original Green Hill Zone music's in Brawl, along with Scrap Brain Zone and Emerald Hill Zone from Sonic 2.

It's funny; on the Dojo post, after describing the detail of Tails, Knuckles, and Silver, it says "Probably just because we like them so much."
Passive agressive, underlying-rage-influenced, snarky comment? Or a friendly sign of peace?
Either way, that comment is awesome.

My personal favorite is: "It’s like the Sega Genesis makes a comeback as Nintendo hardware!"

They NEED to make a Smash Bros commercial where guys in Mario and Sonic costumes are beating the Hell out of each other to So Happy together.

Ever see the Hsu and Chan comic about Brawl? It's basically what would happen before that.

Ah... it's moments like these that bring out the fondest of childhood memories... And now I'm inspired to go off and play Sonic & Knuckles.
