I dont have a clue how it was done, but I remember way back in the 16 bit era my sister somehow did something that allowed her to be any sprite from the game (Gold rings, Robotnik etc) naturally, she didnt allow me to play it i only got to watch... so all these years later out of no where i remembered and would like to try it out.
ya you're thinking of the debug code. up down left right is the level select code though. i dont remember off the top of my head but it should be here on gamespot or gamefaqs.
HERE is where I found this information, in case you needed the link.
Debug mode: Press Up, C, Down, C, Left, C, Right, C, Start, then hold A at the title screen. Continue to hold A until game play begins. Screen coordinates will appear instead of a score and the number of objects displayed will appear instead of the time remaining. Use one of the following controller actions to enable the corresponding debug code. Note: This code may only be enabled on the first version of the game.
Object transformation Press B during game play to change Sonic into a game object. Press A to change into a new object. Press C to place an object on the screen. Press B again to revert back to Sonic. Note: The type of object that may be selectable will vary from level to level.
Invincibility Sonic is, by default, invincible in debug mode. Note: Sonic can still drown, be crushed, fall and die, etc. He is only invincible to enemy attacks. Information in this section was contributed by Fakey McFake.
