Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis is a "port" of the original Genesis game to celebrate Sonic's 15th Anniversary. While it looks mostly the same, it also has poorly-remixed music, inferior sound, awful physics, bad collision detection, unstable framerates, and numerous inexcusable glitches. And on top of all that, not only was it released the same day as Sonic '06, it was only released in the US.
On August 30, 2008, a proof-of-concept ROM titled Sonic the Hedgehog GBA was released on Sonic Retro. Not only did this homebrew version demonstrate just how badly Sega had dropped the ball with the official one, it had been made by one person.
And it seems Sega was impressed by Stealth's work, as he would later help develop the official 2013 port of the original game, the 2013 port of its sequel, and Sonic Mania.
