This happens because Sonic 3 & Knuckles is essentially built on top of Sonic & Knuckles. Sonic & Knuckles's cartridge has a lock-on feature, and locking on Sonic 3 to it lets you play Sonic & Knuckles. What basically happened here is that when the game reset, it couldn't find that bit of data that tells it that Sonic 3 is locked on. Hence why you boot to Sonic & Knuckles instead. I've seen rare cases where the game will actually boot to Blue Sphere instead, the game that boots when you lock on a cartridge that isn't Sonic 2 or 3.
The bug happens because of the way the additional water spouts interact with that specific setpiece. If the game has a crash, it will usually default to playing the bottom cartridge, or S&K, to prevent cartridge damage. This happens in emulators because the game is exactly the same as the cartridge, so it loads the S&K rom instead of S3&K rom because it thinks it could damage a cartridge.
The debug mode in Sonic 3 is very different to the others episodes, this one can make crashing your cartridge and this is very laggy, this one is really for the developpers
This glitch usually happens if there is object overflow. I was doing that with S-Monitor (the one that makes you hyper) and when you break them you can lag the game to the point that Sonic & Knuckles loses its ability to understand the Sonic 3 disc, and just ignores it.

I also got this bug a lot of times but in other stages, like Hidden Palace, and Somehow I even discovered an way to turn it back in Sonic 3 & Knuckles in Flying Battery
I remember a S3 to S&K glitch happening to me once... can't remember how, though. I know it had something to do with Super Sonic, and I remember discovering something about Hyper sonic being fully functional in S&K. The transitioning to S&K happened just like it did in the video, but I remember making it occur had to do with Super Sonic. I can't remember whether or not I was doing it on S3 or S3&K, because I was playing on the GC Sonic Mega Collection. FOUND IT: I found the glitch and recognized it instantly. What I did was I placed tons of supersonic monitors and spindashed into them, hitting them all. The game on occasion freaked out and reset into Sonic 3 & Knuckles. I think that's when I discovered that Hyper Sonic could be used in Sonic & Knuckles. From what I've seen in these comments, there are apparently a lot of ways people got this glitch. I still think the 12 Super monitors works the easiest for me.
I found a similar version of this in s3k Normally the spindash will stop you from hitting every monitor in a giant clump like that but when I rolled into them it had no restraint and my game crashed I was messing around with sonic in knuckles sky sanctuary along with debug
i found another one, go to the start of act 2 in carnival night zone and then go into debug and start spawning hyper sonic boxes until the game starts lagging. after that you have to jump on the boxes at once and then you're gonna start flying everywhere and then you can press start to go to the sonic and knuckles menu screen.
more simple: go to any zone with debug mode enabled place a bunch of super sonic monitors without getting them outside the screen(don't stack them) spindash through the monitors when the game starts going crazy,reset the game by pressing start + a
i look a error in this video. to do the level select is isn't "Left, 2x, right 2x, up 2x". The correct is: "Left x3, right x3, up 3x" sorry my english, i 'm brazilian
What seems to happen is that the crash confuses the cartridge. Because the cartrages hold their own RAM, the game has to read from both, but can only read from one at a time. The crash causes it to read from only the S&K RAM and it forgets about the Sonic 3 cart, just running the S&K data. The reason why this works in an emulator is that the rom is actually the 2 roms in 1 file.
That actaully happened to me one time... I was very wondered, I think to try it and get the glitch again... I got that glitch by: 1. Go in the Debug Mode. 2. Get into the Final Boss (Giant Robot before the Doomsday Zone) in Sonic & Knuckles (in Sonic 3 & Knuckles). 3. Get so many rings and turns into Super (Hyper) Sonic. 4. Get 0 lifes while you're in Super (Hyper) Sonic. 5. You'll go into Sonic & Knuckles after the ham restarts. I HOPE THAT HELPED YOU! Edit: Thanks for ❤ me!
Taha632RMF Video Games Soundtracks I found one like that too. I think this may mean that the game just sends you here if it crashes or has a certain error.
I think I can actually explain what's going on here: Whenever Sonic and knuckles tries to start, it checks if sonic 3 or sonic 2 is attached, if yes, then load/Read the data of that game and continue If no Boot sonic and knuckles So doing that same glitch without a sonic and knuckles cartridge attached would result in a crash, with the sonic and knuckles cartridge, it falls back to sonic and knuckles
@@sonofmixit correction: If sonic 3 crashes with S&k locked on, sonic 3 never even starts back up, but s&k still tries to load the data, but can't due to the cartridge not being mounted as a Rom :P
Trance The Hedgehog Happened to me! What you have to do is open the sound test, by inputting left x2, right x1, left x 3, down 1, up 1, then start the game. Once the sound tests screen boots up, input 02, then 07, then 10, then 03, and finally 08. Then you will boot into Sonic 3 & Knuckles, but you also they the option to play Sonic 06.
You: strange isn't it? The game: YOU MIGHT KNOW EVERYTHING I AM GOING TO DO, BUT THATS NOT GOING TO HELP YOU, SINCE I KNOW EVERYTHING YOU ARE GOING TO DO!
It’s called overuse of debug mode. The game switches to its alternative, sonic & Knuckles, when it’s not able to take that much power. I think we’ve all learned something today.
Well, you are playing Sonic 3 & Knuckles, meaning you have Sonic 3 locked on to Sonic and Knuckles, meaning when that glitch happened, it interacted with only the Sonic and Knuckles side and forgot to interact with the Sonic 3 side. Still a weird glitch.
Ah... I remember this glitch. Funny enough, I recall something similar happening when I messed with debug in my own way. I remember doing this on Sonic Classic Collection and the original S3&k game back in like 2013-2014. Here's what happened (from what I remember at least): -I activated Level Select and Debug mode -I loaded into Angel Island via Level Select (it worked with any character and stage from what i know, so choose as you want if you decide to do this yourself) -At the start of the stage, i went into debug and spawned a lot of "S" monitors in a line behind me a ton, repeatingly placing them over each other -I got out of debug mode to the right of the monitors and spindashed into them, which would turn me into Hyper Sonic/Tails/Knux -The game then went crazy and glitched out like in your video, however pressing just start alone sent me to S&K. That's pretty much what i can remember. I believe this glitch has been around for a while to be honest, but it's cool that you managed to find another method of doing it. ^-^
DoctorEggrobo64 I think back in the MegaDrive days, SEGA wouldn't allow games to crash. They just looked everywhere for glitches, bugs and all that stuff and wouldn't publish your game until you fixed everything. The developers, knowing they couldn't make a flawless game, just added some lines of code to send you to the TITLE SCREEN (for example) if the game crashes or if there's an error. I think I saw that on "GameHut" 's channel.
For me it's not really strange, actually... This is what I think: first off the glitchy sprites in the beginning were because the water's graphics are only loaded when Sonic is in certain areas of the level (to create the illusion of more VRAM). When placed in the wrong spots, you can sometimes be pushed inside the wall. Then, Sonic loaded a special area of the level improperly, which crashed the game in a way that the program counter jumped directly to the start of the code for Sonic & Knuckles. Sonic & Knuckles has a port where you can plug in another cartridge, like Sonic 2 or Sonic 3. When you started up your Genesis with Sonic 3 plugged in Sonic & Knuckles, the game starts Sonic & Knuckles differently, because another cartridge is plugged in. This crash started Sonic & Knuckles in a way that bypasses this check, and therefore the game assumes that no cartridge is plugged into Sonic & Knuckles, so Sonic & Knuckles starts up that way.
You can also put a lot of super monitors in a line and spindash onto all of them. I don't remember if you have to do anything after that. That glitch should be in A+Start's video.
This Happens To Me In The DS Classic Collection's S3&K, The Same Exact Effect Happens Using Debug Mode In Any Zone With Sonic And Tails Together By Spamming "S" Monitors And Geting Them All At Once, Eventually You Lose Control And You Will Slowly Loose All Your Lives. And It Will Revert To The S&K Start Screen.
@@randominternetman8177 It's been so long, but I remember being able to do the stage select cheat in Mushroom Hill and using that to get debug in Angel Island.
My brother showed me this, but with a different way. He would go to angel island act 2, place a ton of super monitors, and then spindash into all of those, and it would show that but without any sprite glitches.
Yeah, I had that glitch happening too It's easier to trigger it in Sky Sanctuary, find a rotating platform, stand on it, enable Debug Mode... around that point, you'll glitch out, then press start and that's it
This will actually happen any time you overload ram in S3&K. Not sure why, I think it overwrites the sequence that tells it to start in S3&K mode but idk, but you can also do it in Knuckles in Sonic 2 if you spawn enough sprites in to slow the game to a crawl Hell sometimes it'll just restart on its own, but you can't really do it outside of debug mode
This glitch only occurs if you have the Sonic 3 & Knucles and to have it you have to insert the Sonic & Knucles enzyme cartridge from the Sonic 3 cartridge
Синий Крипер Well, the original S3 without S&K does have debug mode, but it is extremely hard to enter. At the start of the game, you have to wait until the Sega Screen fades, and then press up up down down up up up up up up up...... Until you hear a ring sound. But you'll have to do it in under a second (I think between the first 2 drum sounds), so you will need a few tries ;)
it doesn't Sonic 3 & Knuckles is just Sonic & Knuckles with Sonic 3 levels added on and a tiny bit of Sonic 3 code this glitch screws with the game's memory and it resets into Sonic & Knuckles
There's another way to do this too. Add thousands of super monitors (monitors with a blue letter S on it) in a line (i did that in the beginning of angel island act 2) and then spin dash as many of them as possible, at the same time. The game breaks down like that in this video when Sonic turns into Hyper Sonic. It will may need some trial and error for this one
Theres also a glitch happen in sandopolis 1. You have to unlock debug 2. Spam the super box in sandopolis 3. If it reachest to alot of rings like ½rings then your doing it right 4. Spam more until it gets to F 5. Press start and then.......... Sonic and knuckles appear (im not good at saying this right)
Yea, that was me before, I never discovered anything lol
LucasRPDJ I’m going niggo mode

This Happens To Me In The DS Classic Collection's S3&K, The Same Exact Effect Happens Using Debug Mode In Any Zone With Sonic And Tails Together By Spamming "S" Monitors And Geting Them All At Once, Eventually You Lose Control And You Will Slowly Loose All Your Lives. And It Will Revert To The S&K Start Screen.
how the hell did you activate debug mode in classic collection
@@randominternetman8177 It's been so long, but I remember being able to do the stage select cheat in Mushroom Hill and using that to get debug in Angel Island.
@@LasagaMan Yeah, I was just confused, because I don't think you're able to quit to title screen in Classic Collection.
I did this on knukukes and knuckles and knuckles rom hack and it works and even sonic 3C although i can go back xd
Thanks for the help lucasRPDJ!
Where can I find a copy of the S&K Title music used in this video (the version used was an extended remix.)?

Wait a second !!!!

Tear out your hard drive as you’re playing music (preferably constructed music)

My brother showed me this, but with a different way. He would go to angel island act 2, place a ton of super monitors, and then spindash into all of those, and it would show that but without any sprite glitches.
Thanks for the shout out.
cool music

Spider-Ham:" now this is strange"
This is the greatest plot twist in Sonic history.
But cool to skip the srage
I found out that glitch to when I was doing a sonic hack
Holy fuckles, it is Knuckles!
ComBasic Holy Knuckles, it's Fuckles!
@@4pri792 knuckles is truly holy...
Holy shitles it is fuckles
somekidthatlikesribbon Holy Shittles it’s Skittles!
Yeah, I had that glitch happening too
It's easier to trigger it in Sky Sanctuary, find a rotating platform, stand on it, enable Debug Mode... around that point, you'll glitch out, then press start and that's it
This will actually happen any time you overload ram in S3&K. Not sure why, I think it overwrites the sequence that tells it to start in S3&K mode but idk, but you can also do it in Knuckles in Sonic 2 if you spawn enough sprites in to slow the game to a crawl
Hell sometimes it'll just restart on its own, but you can't really do it outside of debug mode
So an entire sonic game is hidden in another sonic game, well all people who bought both games when these are out have made big mistake
This glitch only occurs if you have the Sonic 3 & Knucles and to have it you have to insert the Sonic & Knucles enzyme cartridge from the Sonic 3 cartridge
@@agulol6492 good point, I didnt thinked of that
@@hahahanijeukradeno1008 :)
It this funtionaly in Sonic 3 normal witouth S&K? (Sorry for my bad english)
Keanu Ojanama
Well I thought original S3 have no debug mode...
Синий Крипер
Well, the original S3 without S&K does have debug mode, but it is extremely hard to enter. At the start of the game, you have to wait until the Sega Screen fades, and then press up up down down up up up up up up up...... Until you hear a ring sound.
But you'll have to do it in under a second (I think between the first 2 drum sounds), so you will need a few tries ;)
electroman1996
I remembered lol.
it doesn't
Sonic 3 & Knuckles is just Sonic & Knuckles with Sonic 3 levels added on and a tiny bit of Sonic 3 code
this glitch screws with the game's memory and it resets into Sonic & Knuckles
Como o motor da sonic 3 sozinha é o mesmo que da sonic 2, você vai pra tela de seleção de fases, não volta pra tela inicial..
If you were to try this with the basic sonic 3 cartridge/Rom would it just reboot to the Sonic 3 main menu after crashing?
I think I've known about this fir a while. There are so many ways to pull this off.
noice
*Strange Isn't It?*
Kid: I wanna play Sonic & Knuckles
Me: I got you lol.
There's another way to do this too. Add thousands of super monitors (monitors with a blue letter S on it) in a line (i did that in the beginning of angel island act 2) and then spin dash as many of them as possible, at the same time. The game breaks down like that in this video when Sonic turns into Hyper Sonic. It will may need some trial and error for this one
Unknown from M.E. and Mushroom Hill sound brilliant together
1:37 what is the name of the song
Old school knuckles
Knuckles theme
Knuckles Theme From Sonic Adventure
What song did you using mushroom Hill
Theres also a glitch happen in sandopolis
1. You have to unlock debug
2. Spam the super box in sandopolis
3. If it reachest to alot of rings like ½rings then your doing it right
4. Spam more until it gets to F
5. Press start and then.......... Sonic and knuckles appear
(im not good at saying this right)
