In the latest issue of Retro Gamer, the magazine managed to get an interview with Sonic Team Director Takashi Iizuka about the 20th anniversary of the Dreamcast classic Sonic Adventure!
We have had a DX – Director’s cut on Nintendo Gamecube … but it is still a title deserving of a true remaster;
In the interview Takashi Iizuka mentions that he would be interested in remaking Sonic Adventure some day as he can see the flaws in the original game which was very ambitious at the time of release.
About Sonic Adventure
It was the first highspeed 3D action game that also featured a scenario highlighted with six different stories, the A-life Chao, six unique styles of gameplay – it is a unique game offering even 20 years after its release. At the time, it also wasn’t just a solitary software release, it was the title to bring people to the Dreamcast and we were given the budget to make something to showcase the hardware.
However, it was the very first 3D game that we worked on and looking at it now I can see the rough edges it has, which really makes me want to remake it again.
That comment is appeal to the fans and can you imagine Sonic Adventure’s ambition realized with today’s techical options? We for one would love to see Sonic Adventure revisited on the Nintendo Switch.
It is possible that remakes of Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 could happen as SEGA usually following trends in the market. And to note with recent revivals of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro into successful remasters of their early 3D games … why not?
How likely do you think a Sonic Adventure remaster is?
