A rare Sonic Adventure Tournament Disk from a pre-launch event resurfaces online and gets archived for anyone to play.
A Sonic Adventure Tournament Disk has been found and archived on a Sega Dreamcast preservation site 27 years after the tournament it was made for ended. While some Dreamcast fans might know what this disk was made for, some younger gamers might not know as the event isn’t exactly talked about compared to the rise and fall of Sega’s last console. Back in 1999, an event known as the Sega Dreamcast Mobile Assault Tour took the console across North America for 22 weeks, giving fans a chance to try the device and its games for themselves before launch.
During the Sega Dreamcast Mobile Assault Tour, fans were allowed to try out the first Sonic Adventure game for themselves with a bit of a catch. This version of Adventure players experienced only had one stage, Emerald Coast, and would only last for 2 minutes exactly. In this version, fans were challenged to get the highest score by collecting the most rings, defeating the most enemies, and getting as far as they could in the stage.
