/vr/ - Retro Games

I saw a game called Monster Racers for DS and was intrigued by it, and found out the game had several Japan-only iterations.
The DS game is similar to Pokemon but instead of fight, you race in a 2D platformer "hold right to win" style.
The older games look less interactive and the monsters look more simplistic, but still sort of interesting.
