'''''Sonic & Knuckles''''' is a 1994 platform video game in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series, developed by Sonic Team and the Sega Technical Institute for the [[Sega Genesis]]. In addition to being a standalone game, through a system dubbed "lock-on technology," Sonic & Knuckles acts as an expansion pack to both [[Sonic the Hedgehog 2]] and [[Sonic the Hedgehog 3]], the latter with which it was developed in tandem. The [[Virtual Console]] release of the game emulates this function: it will detect if the player has the other games in the [[Wii]]'s memory, and provide the user with a menu to select which combination of games they wish to play. | '''''Sonic & Knuckles''''' is a 1994 platform video game in the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' series, developed by Sonic Team and the Sega Technical Institute for the [[Sega Genesis]].

During the "Collect the Blue Spheres" Special Stages, the game will lag when a lot of spheres are on screen. | During the "Collect the Blue Spheres" Special Stages, the game will lag when a lot of spheres are on screen. This is a fault of Dolphin's emulated CPU not matching up perfectly with the Wiis. Changing the "emulated CPU Clock" to ~140% will fix the slowdown. | ||
