Sonic
Adventure International
Sega will re-issue Sonic Adventure on October 14 in a multi-lingual version
that will support Japanese, English, German, French, and Spanish. The mini game
"Chaos" in Sonic Adventure International uses English text instead of Japanese.
The gameplay remains the same as in the original Sonic but various viewpoint
glitches and obstructions found in the original have been fixed to provide an uncluttered
visual appearance. In addition to the release of SAI, Sega will launch a Sonic Adventure
International website so that players can upload their score (time needed to finish the
game) so that gamers can boast about their ranking against global competitors. |

Gold & Silver
Nintendo has confirmed Pokemon Gold and Silver for a November 12, 1999 ship
date. NCS expects to receive our initial allocation 1 day after it's release in Japan but
please note that Nintendo will not ship the entire pre-order allocation to it's vendors in
Japan all at once. Stock will be metered out in increments across a couple of weeks to
raise demand to a fevered pitch... |
