The Black Market was originally accessible on the Dreamcast but only using an internet connection. With the servers now down, the Dreamcast versions of the Sonic Adventure games no longer have the Black Market available.
Sonic Adventure
The Black Market for Sonic Adventure was originally only online in Japan; a US version was intended but did not appear to work. Emerald and Ruby jewel chao were released on the Black Market to celebrate events, however there is conflicting information on whether this was to celebrate the release of the Dreamcast in other regions, or as part of an event known as "Magical Garden: Yume no (‘Dream’) Dreamcast Festival. The Amethyst Chao was unlocked when you had 100 emblems. The Sapphire Chao isn’t referenced in the pages or scripts but its VMU data exists. The US version was going to add a new “NiGHTS” Chao that would also cost 100 emblems. [1]
The below table lists the chao:
| Picture | VME file Name | Emblems | Description |
