Thank you for purchasing Sonic Adventure! Please note that this software is designed only for use with
the Dreamcast console. Be sure to read this instruction manual thoroughly before you start playing

CONTENTS

CAUTION

Sonic Adventure is a memory card compatible game (Visual Memory Unit (VMU) sold separately). The number of memory

blocks required to save game files varies according to the type of software and content of files to be saved. With this

game, 10 blocks are needed to save game files and 128 blocks are needed to maintain the A-Life system used t o

save Chao creatures. Playing “Chao Adventure” (mini-game) using your VMU requires 128 blocks of free memory. Note

that because the saving of all cleared action stages, events, and victorious battles against bosses occurs automatically,

never turn OFF the Dreamcast power, remove the memory card unit or disconnect the controller during game play.
