Extreme racing with Sonic and friends on futuristic boards. Fun and colorful concept, snappy but repetitive gameplay. Nice for short sessions among fans.

Collector interest

Sonic Riders in its Japanese Xbox edition, a Sega futuristic racer released late in the console's Japanese cycle, just as it was fading there. This timing reduced the local run to a modest volume, making it a target for Sega collectors chasing late Japanese releases on a minority platform. Its interest rests on this conjunction of regional end-of-life and mascot license.
