Yeah, I found that out today lol, and apparently the different vocals in Sonic Jam were from the prototype, and the instrumental is because of copyright issues :/
I'm pretty sure these things were done for copyright stuff if I'm not mistaken.
It always annoys me how no one talks about the fact that SEGA always keeps changing Sonic ~ You can do anything (JP Op.). I own a PAL Mega CD II with Sonic CD and it has the original opening song. In Sonic Jam on the Saturn they redid the female vocals, and in modern releases (2011, Origins (to my knowledge)), they just use an instrumental that is a remake and isn't the original 🙃 If there's any misinformation in this comment please correct me. :)
how it feels to see the thumbnail has now been reduced to a png (sob sob cry)

This need to be put into a zip file.
TOOT TOOT SONIC WARRIOR
Ayo. Ever Heard of Zip files?
This has 717 frames.
Impressive.

How do I put this into a gif?
The command @T0biasCZe said didn't work.

@walmaker Sonic CD HAD cel animation.
This is probably the closest to Sonic having cel animation in a video game.
If you want to make this a gif use ezgif spritesheet cutter, its faster then ripping is piece by piece like it will take 100 years to do that
Everyone, there is 717 FRAMES in this sprite sheet. Like what Stickfin mentioned, use ezgif, sprite sheet cutter to rip entirely ALL this instead of ripping each piece the ol' fashioned way.
If you're gonna rip this, be humane and use ezgif. It rips this for you and you can even download a zip file of the individual frames.
the framerate is 8fps, and to split it into separate frames use this command:
ffmpeg -loop 1 -i image.png -vf "crop=iw/5:ih/144:mod(n\,5)*iw/5:trunc(n/5)*ih/144" -vframes 720 out%d.png
ffmpeg -loop 1 -i image.png -vf "crop=iw/5:ih/144:mod(n\,5)*iw/5:trunc(n/5)*ih/144" -vframes 720 out%d.png
Zip files are good.
I guess this was a pain in the butt rip all of this, good job
