First put on the debug and level select codes on. Then go to the final level (against Metal Sonic) and beat him. After you "START" running out the door way turn into a ring or something else. Fly back into the room with Metal Sonic and you should see the fire running behind sonic. Note: This can also be done in Sonic 3.
Get Over 100 lives
First do the Debug code and go to any stage and turn Tails into Super tails. Now press B and press A until you become an enemy. Keep on making enemies on Super Tails. You'll start to get lots of lives while Super Tails destroys the enemies you create.
Note: If you have a controller that can either let you have things go slow, turbo and normal, you can change it to turbo and hold on to C and you won't have to keep on pressing the C button.
Hyper Sonic
Go to Oil Ocean Zone. Go to the part where they shoot you up into the air. Before you hit the transport move over to the right and allow yourself to be stuck between the shooter and a wall. When you jump out you will jump twice as high and run twice as fast as Super Sonic.
Unlimited 2 player vs. lives
To do this code, go to 2 player vs. and select Mystic Cave. Go and die on the spikes and a "Y" will appear next to your lives. Keep on hitting the spikes. There will be an -> next to your lives and you will have 9 lives. Now you can beat the other player because you can die and various signs appear!
