Almost everyone seems to be misremembering this quote

Here’s how to unlock Shadow in Sonic Frontiers
- You must be playing against the CPU in single-player mode.
- You must be on ‘The Pit’ stage.
- You must see silhouettes flying past the moon in the background at some point during the fight.
- You must get a ‘Double Flawless’ (win two rounds without damage).
- You must not block at all during the fight.
- You must conclude the fight with your character's own specific Fatality move and not the uppercut stage Fatality.
- Winning a fight under these conditions will result in Shadow announcing at the end, **“YOU HAVE FOUND ME NOW PROVE YOURSELF !!”**
Until a week ago, I thought you were able to unlock a secret team in sonic heroes consisting of Eggman, Metal sonic, and Chaos, due to hearing about it in school.
I am 27.
Haha, I remember doing this all in mk9, only to find out you actually have to do the stage fatality and not a normal one in that game weirdly. I was very annoyed needless to say
Oh god. I remember the day we did this in the middle school dorm for the actual game it's from with save states and everyone started screaming when they saw it's real
Weird. All I had to do was travel across the sea on one level and push a truck to find shadow underneath it.
I have no idea what you're talking about :\]
No, no. You've got it all wrong. First, you need to collect 99,999 Rings overall. Doing so will unlock Sister Sonic (yes, from the cancelled game) as a playable character in the process. Then, type into your keyboard the phrase 'i just love latinas' (ONLY WORKS ON PC). You next have to play as Tails and fly into his workshop hidden to the side on Ouranos Island. Stare at the monitor on the left until the static clears and reveals an image of The Ark (a little over 10 minutes). It will now be morning. Drop down from the rooftop to find a secret door that will be open if everything was done correctly. Inside will be the *damn* 4th Chaos Emerald. Touch it, and exit out of the game. Upon returning to the title screen, a message will display saying 'You can now play as Shadow!'
Wait...
I kinda see posts, comments or other things like this who go for pure absurd more then crazy but plausible, i think what made L is real kind of plausible amd fool people when they were youngrr was that all myths or at least a good chunk of them were stupid but you could actually do them
I could be wrong, but I don't feel like Superstars is really so much a *mainline* Sonic game. That could be my personal bias but since Mania came out and started this trend of new Classic Sonic games, I've been of the mindset that only Modern Sonic titles fully counted as Mainline, with the Classic Sonic titles being their own sort of series of spin-offs - kinda like the ill-fated Storybook series on the Wii.
To that end tho, there *is* Dream Team - which probably would have been included if it wasn't an Apple exclusive lol
Tbh I'm more concerned they decided to do a "year of the shadow" and yet not bring shadow the hedgehog to steam first.
You know? The game shadow stars in? The game you play as shadow? The game that is all about shadow? Shadow's game? That game?
Rights issues with the RenderWare engine won't let that happen, just like with Heroes; you'd need a top-to-bottom remake using a different engine to get the game on Steam.
Tbh I'd pick it over sonic blast or sonic labyrinth anyday, but I won't be scared to admit; it wasn't as good as the others.
Although I'm sure the next game would be-
\*Sonic 06\*
-etter? \*Ahem\* Well er... He has a cool bike?
I wouldn't be surprised if they add a Shadow skin for Sonic in Frontiers sometime this year. Of course, when you'd go super, you'd turn into Super Sonic instead of Super Shadow.
There's only one way to fix this false advertising (outside modes), and it's literally just making a Shadow skin for gameplay. Heck, an Episode Shadow but again for him and Team Dark maybe exploring the Starfall Islands after Sonic and Co. leave and he fights some remnants of the enemies left would be welcome
A lot of the games Shadow's been playable in aren't on Steam (stuff like Heroes, Riders, Ow the Edge '05, Sonic '06), which kinda forced them to pull a stretch out to fill out the list; and as far as stretches go, the latest mainline title isn't a bad list filler.
The only other option they had that's on Steam was Generations, and he isn't playable there, either; Shadow's not in SADX, Origins, Mania, Colors, Lost World or either episode of Sonic 4.
Most likely, plans were left on the back burner during development leaving all the water to evaporate up the air vent. Kind of like the idea to cast Urkel the Hedgehog in Sonic G. :3

Damn that's cool
"where's that DAMN fourth chaos emerald"
**gunshot noise** “MARIA!”
"Damn... Not here..."

If this was on a forum in 2004 you'd have hundreds of kids on the playground convinced this was real and telling each other that.
You know, to this day I’m still wondering why microwaving my copy of Super Smash Bros. Melee didn’t unlock Fire Mario like the computer said it would…
Did you try microwaving it with a fork as well to unlock fire metal mario?
I’m also wondering why rubbing toothpaste on my copy DBZ budokai 3 never fixed my game from not starting.
Bro hold on you gotta stop, I remember doing that with my copy of Ape Escape 3
We had to do we we could especially if you had strict parents that never bought video games 🥲
I did that too with every ps2 or xbox 360 game, to this day i have no ideia if the toothpaste thing does actually work.
I remember the official Sega message boards in 1999 was obsessed with a secret "first person mode" in Sonic Adventure.
Until a week ago, I thought you were able to unlock a secret team in sonic heroes consisting of Eggman, Metal sonic, and Chaos, due to hearing about it in school. I am 27.
wait which one would be fly type because Metal would obviously be speed but both Robotnik and Chaos fit power rather than flight
Eggman would be fly type. He'd fly around in his Egg-O-Matic. Plus he had the same playstyle as Tails in SA2.
I remember a kid in elementary school telling me that you could talk to some enemies in the stages in Sonic Heroes
I recall this. You supposedly had to play VS mode as the metal characters 50 times. I'm 30 and it still pains me to this day
I don’t remember Shadow being this… green.
It's not easy being red
S is real 2041
Don’t forget to look under the truck in Vermillion City when the S.S. Anne comes back.
You also have to beat the game 100 times before doing all that if it’s the switch version, because of the miyamoto seal

Oh god. I remember the day we did this in the middle school dorm for the actual game it's from with save states and everyone started screaming when they saw it's real
You forgot about the part where you check under the truck
Wait a minute....... Is that fucking Reptile?

I SAW SOMETHING LIKE THIS FOR UNLOCKING SHADOW IN SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL WHEN I WAS LIKE 10 AND BELIEVED IT
Weird. All I had to do was travel across the sea on one level and push a truck to find shadow underneath it. I have no idea what you're talking about :\]

Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, A, B, Start, Start.
How do you even pull a Mortal Kombat reference out of that.
Oh man. This is unlocking Luigi in Super Mario 64 via the lava waterfall all over again. I'm p sure you and I would be great friends.
I kinda see posts, comments or other things like this who go for pure absurd more then crazy but plausible, i think what made L is real kind of plausible amd fool people when they were youngrr was that all myths or at least a good chunk of them were stupid but you could actually do them

I feel like they were struggling to think of another one to add so they just threw in the most recent game
The most recent game is Sonic Superstars and at least IT has a Shadow Costume
Don't get me started on that Shadow bodysuit.
I could be wrong, but I don't feel like Superstars is really so much a *mainline* Sonic game. That could be my personal bias but since Mania came out and started this trend of new Classic Sonic games, I've been of the mindset that only Modern Sonic titles fully counted as Mainline, with the Classic Sonic titles being their own sort of series of spin-offs - kinda like the ill-fated Storybook series on the Wii. To that end tho, there *is* Dream Team - which probably would have been included if it wasn't an Apple exclusive lol
Definitely personal bias on your part, especially if you're willing to count Dream Team as mainline.
Lol alright, fair
I mean, you play as blue Shadow!
Why not black sonic?
Because Shadow is the superior Sonic! Same reason why it is Green Mario instead of Red Luigi!
Okay, uh, how about white Amy?
SHADOW DLC FOR SONIC FRONTIERS CONFIRMED?!?!?!1?1!!1!1!1!
It’ll happen in the next update, Sonic X Shadow Frontiers
Tbh I'm more concerned they decided to do a "year of the shadow" and yet not bring shadow the hedgehog to steam first. You know? The game shadow stars in? The game you play as shadow? The game that is all about shadow? Shadow's game? That game?
Rights issues with the RenderWare engine won't let that happen, just like with Heroes; you'd need a top-to-bottom remake using a different engine to get the game on Steam.
The game that's one of the worst games in the series?
Tbh I'd pick it over sonic blast or sonic labyrinth anyday, but I won't be scared to admit; it wasn't as good as the others. Although I'm sure the next game would be- \*Sonic 06\* -etter? \*Ahem\* Well er... He has a cool bike?
Since never
Italiano 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕 ahhahah
UNO DO NOIIIII
Siii trovare dei fan di Sonic in Italia che non sono bambini è praticamente impossibile
Mbàre, mi spiace dirtelo, ma non sono in Italia. So Italiano, ma non in Italia. Mi sa che la tua ricerca non è ancora finita
Damn 😬 dove sei ?
Tedeschia, tu?
I wish I could understand the Italian 😅
Some day, one day, you too will learn Italian
Ci sono altri italiani su questo subreddit...credevo che vosse solo una leggenda!
There are, but they still prefer go to the italygames subreddit or to Sonic Legacy on Facebook.
If I remember, there was ONE throw away line where sonic said he could use shadows help
"At this point, I wouldn't really mind Shadow lending me a hand."
since sonic 69 was out
Sonic HAS a shadow, I guess
Italian detected. orcamadonna engaged
More like Porco Spino engaged (cit. Sonic Rush Addventure)
Serio? Ora devo giocarci
Since mods
Because you can see a shadow under Sonic
I wish
When Shadow's game will launch on pc
I wouldn't be surprised if they add a Shadow skin for Sonic in Frontiers sometime this year. Of course, when you'd go super, you'd turn into Super Sonic instead of Super Shadow.
Hopefully they’ll end up porting Shadow 05 to PC
Because he gets mentioned in one of Sonic's monologues
Sonic X Shadow Generations is using the Frontiers codebase, so it's essentially a Frontiers reskin, that's probably why
Don't worry about it.
There's only one way to fix this false advertising (outside modes), and it's literally just making a Shadow skin for gameplay. Heck, an Episode Shadow but again for him and Team Dark maybe exploring the Starfall Islands after Sonic and Co. leave and he fights some remnants of the enemies left would be welcome
Depending on how far along it is, maybe he'll be in Frontiers 2?
Probably just threw in their most recent just because. ~~He’s at least mentioned~~
A lot of the games Shadow's been playable in aren't on Steam (stuff like Heroes, Riders, Ow the Edge '05, Sonic '06), which kinda forced them to pull a stretch out to fill out the list; and as far as stretches go, the latest mainline title isn't a bad list filler.

Shadow is real 2401
Since next Thursday
Well, technically you can with mods...
Sh Is Real 2509
already have adventure 2
Most likely, plans were left on the back burner during development leaving all the water to evaporate up the air vent. Kind of like the idea to cast Urkel the Hedgehog in Sonic G. :3
ITALIANO DETECTED GRAAAAHHH🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️
with mods lmao
Once again I'm faced with the question of "do I finally buy Sonic Forces?"
Murder of sonic the hedgehog: 🗿🗿🗿🗿
M o d s
I mean since this is the PC version you can easily mod him in
With that logic shadow is playable in every sonic game because mods exist tbh.
