They look exactly the same as those in Sonic 2. The parts where he goes through the bumper and the flipper look like a minor graphical glitch, and the Original Trilogy™ were definitely not without those.
That second act with the 100,000 points is basically a repeat performance of Sonic's Casinopolis stage in SA1, which although I enjoyed playing, pissed me off at the lack of an actual stage and the sheer amount of time it took to complete on average. This new one looks a little easier/less time-consuming but also more monotonous due to how friggin' small the pinball machine is.

I guess next why not let us have both invincibility and speed shoes at the same time? More power = more fun !
Oh, right, the boost.
1. Sonic had the bounce attack as a permanent upgrade is SA2.
2. There's no boost in this game you insidious pissant.
