The one that started it all. No run, no slide, no copy abilities.
Just a simple jump, inhaling and spitting back enemies, and infinite flying in a platformer game. It sets out everything it wants to do and not much else, and- oh it's already over.
Ah well. It puts a smile on my face everytime I play it and I'm basically guaranteed to finishing it when I do so it's like a fulfilling bite sized game.
Extra Game is kind of bullshit though.

This is the best one: all 8 weapons are more than usable and so are the gadgets (RIP Rush Marine, you are never coming back after this game), the movement is at its most balanced with a useful but not overpowered charge shot, the level design is inventive and has great pacing (if a little too many instant death obstacles), and two whole castles to use that amazing arsenal!

A very... divisive game in today's climate.
Much like the rest of the Sonic series, it took me many attempts before I stopped bouncing off it and became a fan.
How in the hell did I one day manage to beat this deathless with all emeralds obtained on the first try is beyond me, but I guess I must really like this game

I feel this one goes too often under the radar.
Sure, it has a lot of issues that were immediatly ironed out by its sequel... but it's the still the one that laid the foundation for countless games and spin-offs and it has aged a lot better than some of its contemporaries thanks to its infinite continues and is overall more fair as well.
Also its arsenal is somehow better than most Mega Man games even with only 6 of them and 2 being unusably bad (shame on you, Mega Man 2 and 5).
