Sonic CD (JPN GCN) - Full Playthrough w/Good Ending

Now here's a thing that no one has done before, a playthrough of the Sonic CD port included in the Japanese version of Sonic Gems Collection!

Note that the score and lives reset in both Tidal Tempest and Quartz Quadrant due to me not completing those rounds on the first try (either missed the robot generator in the past or failed to collect the time stone). The deaths were kept in though. I also accidentally ended the recording a bit earlier than I should have, which is why the "YOU'RE TOO COOL!" message, the "PRESENTED BY SEGA" text and the "THANKS FOR PLAYING!" screen are absent.

As for the music, it's a double-edged sword. While having the Japanese soundtrack in the Gems Collection port sounds nice (since the PAL version used the USA soundtrack for some reason), the problem is that the game was not optimized for this, leading to some tracks fading and restarting earlier than they should, like in Metallic Madness' present theme.

Also man, they couldn't even restore the credits SFX in this version! (I was considering editing it in, but since the scene was sped up, that would have made things go out of sync).
