Filed in August of this year
September 9th is rapidly approaching – and this year is not just any old anniversary for the Sega Dreamcast. 09/09/09 will mark ten years since Sega’s final foray in to the world of gaming hardware hit the market, and many have wondered if Sega themselves have any plans for the occasion.
Thanks to NeoGAF user JSnake, we have learned that Sonic Team has filed for a Ratings Classification with the Office of Film & Literature (OLFC) in Australia for “Sonic Adventure DX: Director’ s Cut”. The filing was made as recently as this month, despite Sonic Adventure DX hitting the Nintendo Gamecube and PC nearly six years ago. The rating does not say much more besides that the game was rated “G” for General Audiences and that it is “Multi-Platform”.
In the past, numerous games have had their ratings turn up on the OLFC before being officially announced. The information given with the rating leaves the door for speculation wide open – seeing as Sonic Adventure DX was already on multiple platforms in the past, the game could appear as a disc-based game for the Nintendo Wii or possibly even a downloadable title for the Playstation Network and Xbox Live Arcade. September 9th does very conveniently land on a Wednesday this year – the same day new Xbox Live Arcade games go up for download. Only time will tell.
We’ll keep you updated.

DX? Oh, THAT isn’t going to go down well, you can be sure of that.
I’m more attentive to the picture, seeing as I don’t own a 360. What the heck is up with Sonic?
Tails wasn’t watching out, and he crashed. Aaagh.
@Pur: Behold, the graphical power of a Dreamcast launch game.
Anyway. If they released some kinda “SONIC ADVENTURE PACK WHOOOO” for the Wii that had both SA1 and SA2 on it, that’d be cool. Downloadable SA1 would also be nice. Doesn’t matter much to me, my Dreamcast still works.
Hmm… I want to see SA2 on the PC, not another release of SA1…
Oh well, if it is for XBLA/iPhone/Wii I will probably get it anyway. I loved the Adventure games! However, if it is XBLA it would be nice to have updated, XBOX 360 quality models (like they had GC quality on the GC/PC release) and widescreen support. (That may not be possible with the ingame movies though, unless SEGA can get the master copy and recreate it)
I thought Sega had said we were getting Sonic & Knuckles on XBLA on 09/09/09 anyway. It would seem odd for them to give us both at the same time… it is the Dreamcast’s 10th anniversary I guess…
@Pur: Sonic’s just worried that you’re about to crash. Ah!
As great as it would be to have it on Live, I still have the original for my dreamcast. Don’t see the point in downloading it again.
SUper Cool, I want it in XBLA to download it, so I can play it in my Xbox 360
and want SA1 , SA2, SADX in my Xbox 360 WOW hehe WAY PASS COOL…
YES!!!!!!!!!! This is incredible! If this goes up, I will be so happy. I just hope it will be available on the psp’s psn, because that would be great. Taking possibly the best 3d sonic title along with your chao on the go would be great this better be true
That screenshot isn’t from DX, though.
Anyway, I’d probably stick with SADX on the GameCube.
If they fix things up a bit then I might consider another download if it’s on the Xbox
now they just need to announce sa2 for psp
Ever heard of getting your face stuck? This is one of those moments.
I guess if SEGA is planning on releasing SA on Xbox Live it would be easier for them to use the PC DX version as the 360 is basically a PC.
(They wouldn’t have to port the original to an Xbox Live app)
Yes, SEGA. Do it.
Alright I can dig it.
So hope this is an XBLA release. It should be good if it is. If it could add online leaderboards and achievements that would be a nice feature. Plus fix a few bugs. DX seemed to have way more bugs and camera issues that the original. Ive died many times from falling through the floor on DX. But not once has that happened on the original.
with online play 
And if that does happen hopefully they will follow up with a bit of SA2
It would be fun if there excisted dramcast games for Virtual Console on the Wii. I would be very happy if I could buy SA or/and SA2 for my Wii.
Since I haven’t finished SA2 all because a glitch that dosen’t let me start one of Shadows levels…
But seriously. The DX version of SA isn’t so bad. It’s enjoyable, only that it’s some problems, but I have no problem to enjoy it!
I don’t understand why it is so hard for people. It isn’t bad a all….the gameplat is still good IMO.
Imagine if we could play SADX online like a real RPG adventure!
^_^
Online chaos and multiplayer would be cool. But I wouldn’t want it to go full RPG. That would take the most fun and fast carefree parts into an
“Oops, you fell down, now you can use an item to come back, or if you don’t have any, spend 20 rings to restart…”
Although a store like in ,dare I say, 06 would be nice. BUT! Do not make the player buy upgrades that are essential. Let them find those like in the orginal game, instead but upgrades that are optional and will get you to secret passages in levels. Find extremely rare chao animals and fruit. Stuff like that, but absolutly 100% OPTIONAL!!!!!!!!!
Being as i love Sonic Adventure and like to waste my money on things i don’t really need i would more than likely end up buying this… again. It all adds up pretty nicely that the Dreamcast’s 10th birthday is coming up and this game turns up at a ratings office. But i think if it does happen there’s a good chance it wont happen on the 9th September. If anything does happen regarding this it will more than likely be an annoucement that this game is on the way. But hey, if SEGA want to surprise me and prove me wrong i won’t complain. =D
Lol funny pic. I hope DX is available for Wii port
I think both the original and DX versions are good.
re-release again?
lazy ass SEGA
i want a full remake version using hedgehog engine
and sega PLEASE remove the stupid frog catching gameplay
the best game on xbox arcade now is banjo kazooie!!! if this was released it would be the best and the most famous!!! woo!!!!
I hope they release it on the xbla because and have online chao games and cool achevments
Although I have this (on DC, GC AND PC) I’ll still get this. Playing SA1 with a 360 controller is awesome enough as-is.
Onlne chao rooms and game achievements would be fun. Chao from separate users can interact, fight and race together. That would be very fun. I just hope this is on the psn.
I think that is a good thing, because Sonic Adventure is the first sonic game i ever played, I like to see it in the wii.
Sonic Adventure is a GameCube game, so it is on the Wii.
As SA1 and SEGA DreamCast’s and SEGA’s biggest fan, this is a DO NOT WANT.
If SA1 is to port’d yet again, it shall be the original SEGA DreamCast version.
The SEGA DreamCast is the true version of the game. The most SPOCIOUS!
