Port of Sonic The Hedgehog 2 for PSVITA.
A port of the second game of Sonic (Sonic The Hedgehog 2) based on a full decompilation of the original game.
 
This porting has been made by Xeeynamo upon the source code of the user Rubberduckycooly, who already fully disassembled Sonic CD a couple of weeks ago. This could not be possible without his efforts to bring the Sonic games from Christian Whitehead on PC!
 
==Requirements==
* Game Data Files: Android
 
==Installation guide==
Download the APK from the Play Store of Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2, rename the extension from APK to ZIP. Extract the content, go to the folder asset where you will find a file called Data.rsdk.xmf, that you have to rename to Data.rsdk. With VitaShell, place the file in ux0:data/Sonic1 and ux0:data/Sonic2. Have fun.
 
'''Note:'''<br>
You will be now able to change resolution between three different options: 320x240 for the original Genesis experience, 426x240 to enjoy the game as intended on the mobile versions, 480x240 to stretch the horizontal resolution to fill the entire PS Vita screen and 480x272 to use every single pixel of that gorgeous OLED screen.
 
For the fan of pixels I introduced three scaling modes: Stretched, Fit and Centered. So now the choice if you want the black borders or not is entirely yours.

A port of the second game of Sonic (Sonic The Hedgehog 2) based on a full decompilation of the original game.

This porting has been made by Xeeynamo upon the source code of the user Rubberduckycooly, who already fully disassembled Sonic CD a couple of weeks ago. This could not be possible without his efforts to bring the Sonic games from Christian Whitehead on PC!

Requirements

  • Game Data Files: Android

Installation guide

Download the APK from the Play Store of Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2, rename the extension from APK to ZIP. Extract the content, go to the folder asset where you will find a file called Data.rsdk.xmf, that you have to rename to Data.rsdk. With VitaShell, place the file in ux0:data/Sonic1 and ux0:data/Sonic2. Have fun.

Note:
You will be now able to change resolution between three different options: 320x240 for the original Genesis experience, 426x240 to enjoy the game as intended on the mobile versions, 480x240 to stretch the horizontal resolution to fill the entire PS Vita screen and 480x272 to use every single pixel of that gorgeous OLED screen.

For the fan of pixels I introduced three scaling modes: Stretched, Fit and Centered. So now the choice if you want the black borders or not is entirely yours.
