The following cheats, codes, and secrets are available for Sonic Mega Collection on the Nintendo Gamecube video game console.
Unlocking hidden games
When you initiate Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2, 3, Sonic and Knuckles, Sonic 3D Blast, Dr. Robotnic's Mean Bean Machine, or Sonic Spinball screen states that it is logging the game data. That indicates the game is logging in that you have initiated that game once. After initiating a game fifty times, it no longer shows that game-logging screen. It stops the logging sequence screen from ever starting a game again and from then on, just starts the Genesis program itself. to unlock a hidden game, you must start a particular Mega Collection game fifty times, continually pressing Z to exit itn enter into the game repeatedly. Some hidden games do not necessarily require that you start up fifty times, but you eventually need to do so to unlock all the hidden games.
