  • Walmart = More Sonic Merchandise

    Well, after my 5-day absence from the net, I actually LEFT the house, and went to Walmart.

    Of course, I checked for the new SA Series 2 Action Figures (resaurus) but what I found instead was strangely odd. Walmart is now carrying an assortment of Sonic the Hedgehog bath supplies. Or so, I'm assuming. What I found was a small little water game, with Sonic on it. On reading the back, it said "Look for more Sonic Bath Supplies brought to you by -someoffbrandcompany-"... It was one of those cheesy little "press the buttons to make the rings land on the posts" games, and the top opened up (I think) for the soap or whatever.

    Another thing I found, which striked me as odd, is the latest Tiger Electronic's gimick games, entitled "Tiger Arcade". They feature those cool little low-res dot matrix screens like seen in the old Tiger 99x games. Walmart had only Hydro Thunder, and Q-bert for now, but on the back packaging, one of the games listed -- Sonic Adventure. Now, most of the other games WERE Arcade games at one time or another, except Sonic Adventure. No matter, it's still on my Holiday Wishlist. :)

    For now, I haven't seen these at any other store. Oddly enough, at my local K-Mart, anything even resembling a Dreamcast or periphiral for it has vanished -- save for one small little memory card. No games, no systems, no nothing. Although, Hap-hazardly stuffed into the games case was a literal MOUNTAIN of PS2 games and PS1 games. So many infact, that if one were to open the display case, they'd spill out onto the floor.

    Well, that's it from me. Later guys.

    More Sonic Shuffle Reviews and Movies!

    Both SEGAWeb and Daily Radar have recently reviewed the latest Sonic Game, Sonic Shuffle. Unfortunately, like DCIGN, Segaweb gives it a very poor score, 4.5/10. However, Daily Radar gave it a HIT Rating, which is the rating below their highest. I believe www.videogames.com have a review and fan reviews, but they seem to be down […]

    Sonic Shuffle Beaten To A Bloody Pulp by IGNDC

    Sonic Shuffle, Sonic's answer to Nintendo's Mario Party and Sony's Crash Bash has been dished out an exteremly bad review by IGNDC. Although they acknolaged the excellent sound, graphics, and overall presentation, they had a *few* quibbles with the gameplay, and they also said this game had a very low lasting appeal. The game was given a 4.7. Ouch!

    Weekend News

    SA2 tidbits in UK DCM

    I'm not sure if this has already been mentioned-- sorry if it has-- but in the latest issue of the UK Official Dreamcast Magazine, as well as a Yuji Naka interview that we've all seen before (you know, the 'Air NiGHTS' one), there's also a short SA2 snippet. It has two new screenshots, a close-up of Sonic sliding down a San Fran hill on that weird metallic wheel-less skateboard thing, and another showing him 'grinding' along a jungle vine. Perhaps most importantly, the preview reveals the planned (worlwide) release date: summer 2001, although according to Naka it 'could be earlier'. Also mentioned by Naka-san was that the game may have a more 'Western-aimed' taste to it than the original. As the man muses, this may be a side affect of working in the US. ;)
