Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
This game added new "Battle" multiplayer options, like the addition of new characteristics to the additional multiplayer characters that were in the available unlockable in the original. The multiplayer characters that were unlockable in the other game are now playable from the start, and other new "bells and whistles" were added.

Features
This game changed a large portion of raising Chao, the A-life form available in both Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2. A Chao's stats can be viewed from within the game. The player can transfer one Chao from Sonic Adventure 2 Battle to the "Tiny Chao Garden" section in Sonic Advance, Sonic Advance 2, and Sonic Pinball Party with the GCN-GBA Link Cable. (If a Game Boy Advance is connected without a GBA Game inserted, a version of the Tiny Chao Garden can be copied temporarily into the Game Boy Advance's memory.) Also the introduction of Chao Karate, in which the Chao stats are used for stats in fighting, and the Chao fight in a fighting game style, with little influence from the player.
As with the Dreamcast version, after collecting all 180 emblems, the player can unlock a 3D version of the Green Hill Zone from Sonic 1, with a remixed version of the music from the original.
In the GameCube version, the boxes in the Crazy Gadget level have a red 'x' on them instead of the Dreamcast's version's green 'x'. This is possibly because the Xbox bears a striking resemblance to the boxes with the green 'x'.
One minor setback is that Big the Cat's humorous cameos didn't remain in the stages, but he can still be viewed in some story sequences by rapidly pressing the A button throughout the scenes.
Another key thing was that, in this version, on the 5th Mission for the Cosmic Wall stage, as opposed to the requirement of 50,000 points for an A rank, as was the case on the Dreamcast version, 100,000 points were required instead, and this left many confused and sometimes very frustrated with trying to achieve the score.
