Sonic Adventure 2 - Multiplayer Race Highlights

Long-lost multiplayer matches from the game's original release version on the Dreamcast. Lots of stuff was found here, from glitches to goof-ups to plain funny stuff all around. I decided to just compile the interesting moments out of hours of footage.
I wanted to change up the format. Because while I could upload the entire matches like I did with Sonic Heroes, I don't think they would be terribly interesting. I plan to do the same with Shooting and Hunting, but I want to know what you would prefer to see.
All things considered, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle has the better multiplayer without question. But before all that, races were MOSTLY down to skill, and Amy wasn't broken with the whole special attack every 10 rings that made it almost impossible to catch up without checkpoints. There's also the improved framerate to consider...
Player 2 is unnamed because... well lets face it, when you have footage over 12 years old, it's tough to remember who was who. Sometimes it's a friend, sometimes it's your brother, maybe even your neighbor.

play time is apparently over

I can only find 2 videos on the Dreamcast Version multiplayer. I was always just told the GameCube version was better. But if you’re curious to the difference. There are only 3 stages here as opposed to 10. All characters play the same. There is also a combination restriction. As one player can only play as hero characters while the other can only play as dark characters. Big the Cat is a player character as he was replaced with Dark Chao. But he is just a reskin of Eggman with the same mech and animation. There are quality of life improvements like a progress bar in the races. You also need to unlock all the characters here. So yeah big differences.

How do you get Amy to spin dash? 4:15

[@Saestrol]

Because this is the original SA2 and not SA2: Battle, Amy is more like Sonic in multiplayer.

All characters play the same unlike the GameCube version
