ABOUT SONIC
The Sonic series began on June 23, 1991, with the release of "SONIC THE HEDGEHOG" for the then-current game console, the Mega Drive (known as GENESIS in the US). "Sonic Adventure" was released in 1993. Its speed and unique characters made it a huge hit, selling over 4 million copies worldwide. It was subsequently released on various game consoles, including the Mega Drive, Game Gear, Pico, Super 32X, Sega Saturn, and Dreamcast, and the series has sold 25 million copies worldwide. The previous title, "Sonic Adventure," for the Dreamcast, also sold over 2 million copies worldwide. In 1993, it ranked third in the US "Q Score" (a survey of popularity among American children), establishing a solid position in Europe and the US. Sonic will continue to travel the world. This section has a strange mistranslation, it mentions Sonic Adventure releasing in 1993, which is factually incorrect, but I can't figure out if it means "Sonic's first Adventure" or something else at this time. |
