I am torn on which version to buy. I like the portability of the switch. However the D-pad (even on the pro controller) and the fact I am playing sonic on Nintendo is throwing me off.

Switch for me. It's a good game to play a zone while burning 10 minutes and then putting down until next time you need to burn 10 minutes.

Also the music is fantastic.

Already bought my copy on Switch. Will dive it into right after I beat Planet Robobot. Can't wait ^_^

As for Sonic on Nintendo, you're kind of late on that front. The Adventure games, the Advance and Rush games, Heroes, Unleashed, Colors, etc.

PS4 has the best D-pad, so that.

For real though PS4, although it would be criminal if this didn't come out for Vita.

Switch is the easy choice simply because of portability

Probably PS4, since that's where I do most of my gaming anyway and I could at least try remote playing with Vita.

It is a shame it's not coming directly to Vita, since this one of those games that would be ideal for the platform.

I bought it on PC. About three seconds later, I realized the game was delayed by two weeks. Whoops.

Switch all the way. It's a perfect portable game! Also the 90s kid in me still gets a little kick out of playing a Sonic game on a Nintendo platform :P

Trying to decide between PC and PS4.

If I had a Switch it would definitely be that.

Got it for the Switch. One of those games that's good in quick sessions or a long sitting. So if I'm sitting around with 10 minutes to kill, might as well have it easily available.

@glots: does having a pro and 4k tv really make a difference with this game? I'm not being mean just want to know if the framerate is better or something.

@floydeo: Eh, beefier resolution, but it's not a night and day difference, can only do so much with a 2D game. I think it runs a solid 60 on everything except the Switch at some parts. Haven't watched that Digital Foundry video they did.

@glots: The art is 16 bit equivalent...

You could run it at 10 million P and it wouldn't look any different.

Depending on the upscaling it could look worse on a 10,000,000p screen, so you're wrong ;)

But yeah this is deffo one of those games that'll look nice and colorful on a good display, but this isn't tied to resolution at all as the textures aren't 4k and they isn't 4k's worth of data on the screen and there is no aliasing to worry about. A screen with a good contrast ratio and nice vibrant colours then OH BOY

I voted Switch, but this is the real answer. For portability, the Vita beats the Switch hands down.

I feel like this game is too detailed for the Vita's screen. It would be easy to lose track of what was going on.

I think I'll play this on the Switch. Sonic on Nintendo has long since lost its charm for me (many of the best recent Sonic games were Nintendo only, like Colors and Lost World and...Boom. Oh god. I just remembered Sonic Boom exists! Nooooooooo!) but it is a good platform this kind of game.

@glots: Digital Foundry said nothing about inconsistent framerate and from my experience it's been a locked 60fps. There is however reports of a delay when pressing the Home or Power button

I picked up the PS4 Collector's Edition, but will probably get the Switch version as well - when they fix whatever bugs and frame rate issues that have been coming up on it. Have not heard great things for the Switch version so far, unfortunately. Also, if there was a Vita version, i'd go for that over the Switch just because of the D-pad.

This is a good Sonic game.

@bigsocrates: I played through a couple of the DS Sonic games (not to mention the Game Gear ones!) and they worked fine on those tiny ass screens, so I think I'd be able to manage on the Vita. I mean, the Switch's screen isn't that much bigger and has about the same pixel density as the Vita's, so I can't imagine it would be that much worse.

Have Switch Collectors Edition pre-ordered from Amazon. They STILL have not shipped it. It doesn't even have a physical copy yet I cannot get the code until it arrives. Ordered it in April. What a bunch of BS!!!

None of them. But I'm gonna play the PC version. Looking forward to it. I thought it was coming out two days ago. Didn't realize there was a two week delay.

The last few Sonic games I have bought have been on Nintendo consoles, so I will stick with that. It also lets me postpone buying Mania because I do not plan on getting a switch anytime soon.

Don't have a Switch yet, so I think I'll be buying the PS4 version, for right now. :)

@jamin724: I think people are just excited when anything of note comes to Switch. I'm certainly in that boat.

I got it on my Switch. The portability was a big plus, as was the general lack of Switch games I don't own on another system already.

I bought it on the Switch. I just love playing games on it, and i've been playing it mostly in handheld while halfway watching streams and listening to podcasts. And it looks amazing on that screen.

I got it on the Switch.

I have a PS4 Pro, XBox One, PC with a GTX 1080 and I basically wish the Switch was powerful enough to eliminate the need for all those other gaming systems.

Got PC collectors on Amazon for $45 because I ordered it the earliest possible & the price must've dropped that low at some point.
