In some ways, Sonic Wings Limited is, as its name implies, a simplified, arcade-only version of [[Sonic Wings Special]]; however, it does have a few differences which make it worth playing for those already familiar with Special. Limited features all of Special's characters, save for the unlockable [[Kotomi]] and [[Waffle, Colonel|The Man]], although [[Keaton, Blaster|Keaton]] appears only as Mecha-Keaton and not in his human form. Each character also only has one aircraft instead of a second unlockable one as in Special. There are only seven levels with no ability for the player to choose her/his path as in Special; however, Limited's character endings are the same as in Special. The ending which appears for a particular character seems to be randomly chosen from among that character's endings in Special.

Limited differs completely from Special in its bosses. The game's first boss, that of the Kyoto/Japan level, is a [[Railway tank|tank which moves on bullet train tracks]], a boss which does not appear in any other Sonic Wings game. The other bosses are all in other games, most of them in Special, but they appear in different levels than they do in other games. Oddly, the final boss of the game is [[Gurabura]], who is not a final boss in Special. Finally, the background for the Kyoto/Japan level is completely different than in Special.

In some ways, Sonic Wings Limited is, as its name implies, a simplified, arcade-only version of Sonic Wings Special; however, it does have a few differences which make it worth playing for those already familiar with Special. Limited features all of Special's characters, save for the unlockable Kotomi and The Man, although Keaton appears only as Mecha-Keaton and not in his human form. Each character also only has one aircraft instead of a second unlockable one as in Special. There are only seven levels with no ability for the player to choose her/his path as in Special; however, Limited's character endings are the same as in Special. The ending which appears for a particular character seems to be randomly chosen from among that character's endings in Special.

Limited differs completely from Special in its bosses. The game's first boss, that of the Kyoto/Japan level, is a tank which moves on bullet train tracks, a boss which does not appear in any other Sonic Wings game. The other bosses are all in other games, most of them in Special, but they appear in different levels than they do in other games. Finally, the background for the Kyoto/Japan level is completely different than in Special.

Limited was released in Taiwan in English as "Aero Fighters Special."
