The EU versions of 8-Bit Sonic 2 also called this guy Silver Sonic, so its not just an american thing. But I love this goofy robot, the way I've always seen it is that this prototype went on to be its iterative improvements, namely the mecha from genesis Sonic 2, and then that one went on to be the one from Sonic and Knuckles. As a small side note though, I think its always kinda sad when people only ever talk about game gear versions of the 8-bit series when the Master system versions came first, are more challenging and at least in my opinion, are the superior versions.

He was called Bad Metal Sonic, and in-universe he was made by Dr. Wily in a single afternoon to mock Robotnik's constant stream of Sonic doppelgangers of dubious quality. Whereas Sonic runs so fast his legs look like a pair of wheels and most Sonic bots just kinda rocket hover without moving their legs; this one literally just has a huge pair of wheels sticking out of the sides of his hips, and that's the most functional and best-looking part.

That Proto Silver Sonic can have some uses. It seems really small so instead of it being just one, theyre several of them at a time. They can be dispensed by a bigger robot lets say Silver Sonic MK1 (Sonic 2 Genesis). This could explain the scappy looking design. They can be used to overwelm in sheer numbers and harder to hit because of their size. (Ex: Alot of them bouncing around the room like a crazed ball pit). Also, they could use those Machine Claw arms to grapple and annoy opponents as well as stretching to absurd degrees. Lastly, that cyclop eye it has can shoot a laser or just a flash bang type deal to keep the "annoying" motif.

Just going to provide some additional information for context. The Game Gear was essentially a portable Master System. However, there was some stark differences as one is a home console and the other is a portable. If you play Sonic 2 on the Master System, which released a few days before it's Game Gear counterpart, the game is a lot easier because you have more visible screen area to see the levels. The Game Gear screen required a lot of the view to be cropped out so you could still see the character reasonably, but this had the effect of making the portable game much harder to play. The portable game did not receive the same treatment that Sonic 1 being ported form Master System to Game Gear did, where programmers added additional elements to help the player with upcoming hazards.

Ah yes. The real Silver Sonic. I kinda like that this one is so rudimentary. It looks like a Badnik, which then has a clear evolution into the first Mecha Sonic, which then diverges into Metal and Mecha MkII. They'd make a great baseline footsoldier in a Metal uprising story. Interestingly, the whole "Prototype" angle only happened _because_ of the Silver Sonic conundrum in the west. Because Mecha MkI was redubbed "Silver Sonic" on this side of the Pacific, and Archie then kept the trend up and designated SA1 Mecha Sonic as Silver Sonic MkII, and followed it up with a third one some fifteen years later, when it came time to actually introduce the genuine article, the numbers were off. And Ian couldn't use the Genesis Wave as an excuse because he'd already reintroduced Silver Sonic MkIII to the reboot universe in a previous story.

I have a weird idea for how Silver Sonic could come back in IDW, so bear with me. I want him to come back not as a Eggman creation whole cloth, but a prototype blue print that is REALIZED by TAILS. Tails has a habit of taking flawed/ failed robots of good ol' Eggy and improving them. So what if, during one of S&T's many adventures, Tails manages to hit a motherlode of sorts and finds a cache of failed prototype blueprints? Eggman has freely admitting to scrapping projects and just leaving them around, thus why black markets for Egg Tech exist, as well as defunct bases. Tails gets access to the database, and while not finding much worthwhile aside from good reading fodder (you can get good ideas by holding up a negative example,) he DOES come across the schematic for Silver Sonic. It would call for lightweight, inexpensive material, and functionality that we see in the Game Gear and Mania games. While this wouldn't seem useful on the surface, Tails would think to all the times Cities and Zones have been ravaged by the aftermath of Baddies, and forms a plan. Using repurposed Eggtech parts, updated firmware from Gemerl and Belle, and a whole host of other upgrades, Tails cranks out a handful of these guys to be a security force and cleanup crew. The Super Special Silver Sonic Security Squad. They would aid evacuation efforts, holding baddies at bay while innocents are escorted to safety, perform search and rescue efforts, etc.

I was kinda doing a similar idea, where Tails stumbles upon and fixes up a rusty, wandering version of Silver into something looking like Z-Toon’s doodles. Same page type beat rocks, haha!

When I saw silver sonic in sonic mania I thought he was just a little white hedgehog minion with team flare glasses

I asked for Silver and Mecha Sonic...and you sorta fulfilled my request. Thanks (I guess). Honestly b4 the Super Genesis Wave, Archie made some good designs for both Sonic bots. One became a Secret Freedom Fighter and the other was an interesting debut of Death Egg I & II.

I had a Master System and the 8 bit Sonic 2, still have them now, and before I got a Mega Drive and the real Sonic 2, I had a Stockholm Syndrome overly familiar exposure therapy love of that game. I still have nostalgia for it now. Silver Sonic in that game is, to me, incredibly dorky and cute. Like that kid in school who tries so painfully hard to fit in and just fails every time. It#s such a random and 90s mech that it just makes me smile whenever I see it.

As far as I'm concerned, he's Proto-Sonic now!

I still play sonic 2 GG and love this little guy to death. I'll never stop loving him. Once you know your way around the levels sonic 2 GG isn't so bad at all.... In fact there's a lot of fun to be had speedrunning it.

I would rather call this robot Robo Sonic and the *real* Silver Sonic, as Silver Sonic.

I remember this guy. Sonic 2 on game gear was my first sonic game.
