Also known as: Sonic World Adventure (JP) This game has unused areas. |
5 parts Werehog, 1 part Sonic, what do you get? Sonic Unwiished!
| To do: Many tutorials/missions feature strange stuff out of bounds that hint at earlier layouts. |
Unused Graphics
Trial Version Leftovers
These graphics can be found in one_wii/title in the directories labeled TGS, and exist in both Japanese and English.
Unused 1-up Item Box
In Apotos' 2nd nighttime tutorial, an unused 1-up item box is loaded outside of the mission barriers, where a regular secret item box normally exists. The graphic is taken from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) instead of the image of Sonic's head used in the final game.
Its presence in a level hints that the game used to feature a more traditional lives system (in the final game, a maximum of 14 extra lives are permanently obtained only in Gaia Temples, and are automatically replenished after completing a stage). However, collecting it no longer has any effect.

Sonic Unleashed (released as Sonic World Adventure in Japan), is a video game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega for multiple platforms in 2008. The game follows Sonic the Hedgehog as he attempts to restore the world to normal after his nemesis, Doctor Eggman, splits the world into pieces, as well as his struggles with his new beast form, Sonic the Werehog. Gameplay features two distinct styles, with each being played either during daytime or night-time. Daytime stages incorporate Sonic's traditional platforming and trademark speed, with a combination of behind-the-back third-person viewpoints and 2D side-scroller platforming; gameplay seamlessly transitions between these two views. Night-time levels see Sonic transform into the Werehog; gameplay slows down to accommodate greater platform play, and involves combat against waves of enemies using the Werehog's brute strength.

Emulation Information
Controller Map Overlap
Sonic Unleashed Wii Pal Rom
Sonic Unleashed is capable of using both GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes. If a physical controller is set to emulate both a GameCube Controller and a Wii Remote concurrently, it will operate both devices at the same time. To fix, migrate controls to use separate physical controllers.
Problems
There are no reported problems with this title.
Enhancements
60FPS hack
Enter this as an AR code in the game's configuration settings. This patch will unlock the game's frame rate from 30FPS on actual hardware to 60FPS.
Check 'Store EFB Copies To Texture Only.'. It may also be advisable to increase the emulated CPU clock to maintain 60FPS rendering. The 60 FPS is graphic dependent, so lowering the internal rendering resolution may be required to maintain 60 FPS.
Known problems:
- Boss battles are broken.
- May stop werehog from dashing to one side.
Configuration
This title does not need non-default settings to run properly.

| r3200 | Windows 7 | AMD FX X8 @ 4.5GHz | ATI Radeon HD 7760 | full speed, here is the best results for now, waiting for new emulator updates for this game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJDl5zGIb0o | Angel X |
| r6634 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-750 @ 4GHz | ATI Radeon HD 5870 | Around 38+ FPS (unlimited, normal is 30). Full Graphics and Sound. | |
| r7261 | Windows XP | Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.4GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 | Playable speed | |
| 3.0-377 | Windows 7 | Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 250 | (18-25) FPS | Rafi |
| 3.0-413 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i3-2120 @ 3.3GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 520 | Playable speed 20-25FPS i have some audio problems | mohamed |
| 3.0-415 | Mac OS X 10.6.8 | Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.13GHz | NVIDIA GeForce 9400M | Playable, but in day stages, sound stutters. Avg. emulation speed is about 60%. When using a real Wii Remote, boosting is difficult on the ground; it has to be shaken at just the right speed or it won't happen. It's easier to just use a Classic Controller instead. | Ac |
| 3.0-458 | Mac OS X 10.7.4 | Intel Core i7 @ 2.6GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M | Nearly perfect with default settings! There are bits of stutter here and there, but speed has never dropped below 80% as of now. Much better than my previous attempt above, though sound still stutters at random intervals (accompanied by slowdown). | Ac |
| 3.0-594 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-2630 @ 2GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M | Playable speed, usually around 60-80%, daytime stages result in noticeable sound errors. | DiscoBiscuit |
| 5.0-rc-19 | Windows 10 | AMD Phenom II X6 1090t @ 3.7GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 | Fullspeed everytime. Perfect emulation! | slashlv |
