The story

Sonic Adventure is a Dreamcast action game in Sega’s Sonic series. Sega’s Japanese Dreamcast catalog lists the original release on December 23, 1998, and separately lists Sonic Adventure International on October 14, 1999.

The date and region in this record identify the original Japanese release. Later regional versions and releases on other platforms are separate collecting questions, even where a listing uses the same short title.

When evaluating a physical copy, compare the disc, rear cover, region, and exact title. Test saving with the intended memory accessory and check the video arrangement for the release you own. This guide does not assign a current market value or a hands-on review score.
