Sonic Adventure: 9/9/99

It is now official: the Dreamcast will be launching here in the good ol' USA on September 9 (9/9/99), and Sonic Adventure is definitely and assuredly going to be a launch title. Which, according to common sense, would mean that Sonic Adventure's US release date is also September 9th. Let us break out the Drano and party favors, the countdown can now begin!

Ahead of time, let me state that come the glorious Thursday, I officially declare it Sonic Adventure day at the GHZ. I will not be updating, and you'll be nuts if you waste your time on the internet at all rather than picking up your Dreamcast and vegitating over SA. (And maybe Virtua Fighter 3tb and Sega Rally 2 as well...) Incidentally, the system will start at $199 -- the lowest launch price yet for a next-gen console -- so you won't have to mortgage the house and car just to play SA (although God knows I would if I had to).

Mark your calendars, my friends! Plan to fake sick and cut work or school, unplug the phone to avoid all calls, lock the doors, and pull down the window shades! The Second Coming begins on September 9th...
