Looks like Daytona Racing. Was a Sega coin op

>>2703301
Is Hang-On really that good? I never played it.

Try it.

I'll never forget this game and all the fun i had playing it in the good old days.

R4 (Ridge Racer 4) - PSX
Mickey's Speedway USA - N64
S.C.A.R.S - PSX
Spinout - Magnavox Oddessey 2 (dat fucking 2 player)

this is the thread for me
>>2703360
I'd post my rollcage stuff but is Stage II even retro?

the Rallisport Challenge titles on original Xbox. Those graphics were fucking eye watering back in the day, and the gameplay backs it up.

>>2704129
the physics in the game are amazing and along with the music!

NO PROBLEM!!
YOU'RE ABOUT 6 SECONDS AHEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WATCH OUT!

>>2704115

Ridge Racer Revolution is my favorite racing game of all time.
The course design is fantastic. The handling is like nothing else, really nice feeling drifts and turning.
The music is fun and gets you pumped. The visuals are solid, really nails the whole "fantasy island" atmosphere.
Only issue is that it's got three unique tracks (each with a rather large shared portion), and 6 courses in total (forward and backward, and they actually are pretty different feeling the reverse way).

The other Ridge Racer games are pretty wonderful too, but the drifting isn't as nice in the others. Rage is slick as fuck though, and R4 looks and sounds amazing.
I still keep coming back to Revolution more.

>>2703280
actually played that recently
who the fuck thought the CPU being able to fucking use items infinitely was a good idea

Also, I'm increasingly certain that I hate the track design. I have no idea what happened, this and F-Zero were the two games I played most on my SNES as a kid.

at least F-Zero is still amazing, even if it's still got some silly-ass issues (it doesn't track the position of anything not on screen, so opponent cars will always be behind you no matter how fast you go)

>>2703675
Hang-On on SMS is fun.
Super Hang-On is amazing. Genesis version isn't ideal, but passable. There's an amazing port for the 3DS and it's pretty much the only thing I've played on the machine for the last year. Failing that, use MAME.

>>2704147
is
is it supposed to flicker like that at the beginning?

>>2704159
>is it supposed to flicker like that at the beginning?
Yeah, it's supposed to be lightning. WipEout 2097 does this to.

>>2704121
That slap bass. Sound like something that Toshiki Kadomatsu would make. Dude is a good jazz musician.

>>2704134

Agreed, anon, and a reminder of good times :^)

>>2704159
>but the drifting isn't as nice in the others.
High level play in R4 has a lot of depth to it, the issue is the game basically never asks you to play anywhere near that level unless you try to get the DRT nightmare with a class 3 car.

I really didn't like how revolution made you block cars to win the harder races. That and to me it never really felt right, coming from the later games and not playing on some weird analogue controller. Looks dope tho.

Let's bring some actual quality to this thread

>>2704434
game blew my mind on 386...

and to think you could race the whole indy 500 on it. fug.

>>2704159
>I still keep coming back to Revolution more.

Probably just nostalgia. R4 blows all the previous ones out of the water.

>>2703356
That was a really fun game, also the sequel

>>2703503
Racing "Simulation"

>>2704478
that webm IS the sequel, unless you're talking about the XBox exclusive MM3 (Washington DC and Paris)

Road Rash 3 started amd settled a lot of arguments with me and my friends.

Also San Francisco Rush for the 64 might be my all time favorite arcade to console racing port.

>>2704487
That was the 2nd game? Damn, it's been a long time since I played it

>>2704492
First game was Chicago, which was rather flat. The webm shows a section of San Francisco, one of the two cities in MM2. The other was London.

>>2704473
The game was targeting IBM compatible 8086 (4.77MHz) and 286.

>At the time, many people still had 4.77 MHz 8088 PC's, the 80286 based AT machines were fairly new, and the smoking hot top-end machines were 25 Mhz386's - with EGA graphics! Remember that flight simulators were considered good at the time if they got frame rates above 8-10 fps. I felt it was important to have the highest frame rate possible, and I was confident that we could get up to 15 fps sustained! I also wanted to have a full field of 33 cars (player plus 32 AI cars), since this was Indy. So everything was written in assembly language, for speed. Space was also at a premium, since we couldn't use more than about 570K of RAM. Writing the physics in assembler, using fixed-point math, was one large challenge. Another was creating a graphics database that looked like the speedway, but used no more than about 30 polygons per frame! (We use that many polys in a tire, today.) The other main challenge was getting the CPU to drive 32 AI cars without slowing to a crawl.

fucking double dipping game

>>2704442
this one looks really fun

>>2704518
double dipping? Eden has been doing V-Rally, and it was called just that. However, the european publisher is Infogrames, which owned the Test Drive IP and used it to pull the audience. The US version is published by Electronic Arts, who likely insisted on slapping the NFS badge on it.
In other words, the only entities you can blame here, are the publishers. And if you're extra crazy, you can thank them, because it was either slapping random IP on it, or not publishing this game at all.

We're talking about actually good racing games, do keep up

>>2704171
It's quite an eye opener to see how much faster this is than, say, wipEout pure

countless hours spent playing split screen with me m8s

godly game i wish there was a remake of it with more than 2 players multiplayer and more tracks

>>2703683
Fantastic game! It's especially awesome when you're getting better, change to manual shifting and try to climb up the ladder with as fast as you can. Vividly remember the McLaren/Ferrari feud.

>>2704795
no remakes. Always a bad idea. The only thing this game itself needs is compatiblity.
A sequel though, or a new game in the spirit of Ignition, I'd welcome any day.

>with more than 2 players multiplayer
Only if it's peer-to-peer and not mandatory.

>more tracks
Also a bad idea. If you have even remote interest in racing games, you understand that few but well crafted tracks always outperform a ton of generic ones, just to pad the track list.

>>2704801
Totally agree.
Btw, Ignition on LAN is awesome.

>>2703675

No thanks. Both are deal breakers

>I won't play a game because it notifies me of something I did that required a slight amount of skill!
What a fucking baby

>>2704849
Just because you don't understand the insulting nature of achievements, doesn't mean everybody's as small minded as you

>>2704851
Just because you feel personally slighted every time the game tells you you've progressed, doesn't mean that everyone is as over-sensitive as you.

>>2704865
I just prefer to not be insulted by my games or developers. If you're into that condescending attitude from game developers, that's entirely your fetish.

Can't you turn off Steam achievements? Rendering this conversation pointless?

>>2704882
I don't recall talking about Steam achievements. Just achievements in general. The Steam integration is just another aspect making the prospect of such a game useless to me.

>>2704885

>he doesn't wanted to receive a medal for learning which button is used to accelerate

shiggy

>>2704801
I guess you're right.
I wasn't talking about a remake that tries to fit all the shit features from modern games, just one that is multiplatform (as in not windows-only) and works on modern software.

>>2704927
Ignition Windows has Gold status on Wine (Linux, possibly OSX). Ignition DOS works on DOSBox (many more platforms). Networking's undeniably an issue though

>>2704935
Of course it has.
Still if you're making a sequel of such small game why not make it multiplatform

Or Even better make it GPL

>>2704950
yeah, not disagreeing with you. Just saying, the age of the game is to our advantage, as the various compatibility layers and emulators can cope with it. I would certainly welcome a sequel in spirit

>>2704475
I dunno. I started playing R4 long before I got a hold of Revolution. It's track design isn't quite up there for one. It's got the most "stuff," and is quite technically impressive, but when I'm actually racing in it, it feels a bit lacking.

>>2703349
What game is this please

>>2705013

All RR are time trial racers, there isn't such a huge difference after all. I can see where you're looking at though, R4 is too "perfect" in the sense you can't do wrong as the grip cars are glued in the road and the drifts are absolutely controllable, in RR and RRR you can JUST by spinning your car or losing control during a drift.

>>2705283
if you look closely... at the title of the pic...

Also, Lotus

you know that feel

GAMEOVERYEEEEEEAH!

>>2703269

>>2703269

>>2704780
Well that's pretty obvious to see considering that Pure is probably the slowest game in the entire series.
Why did the game with the worst physics get the most content?

>>2710057
It doesn't really matter when we have HD/Fury.

>>2710070
Pretty much, but there are some tracks on pure or the pure DLC that never made it to HD/Fury.
Where is my HD/Fury Manor Top remake?

>>2710075
The thing I really always wanted wipeout to have is ship cockpits. And not those shitty overlays of Wip3out but fully modeled 3d ones.

>>2710078
I always wanted that to and would also play in the 1st person view because of it until realizing the much better fov you get while playing with the far camera

>>2710082
Also I would enjoy if they made a dynamic career mode where you start as a rookie Feisar pilot and after winning races can get offers from different teams or form rivalries. It would be like a spiced up version v-rally 3 career mode.

>>2710115
That would be cool, could be a chance to actually show off some parts of the stupidly big wipeout lore.

RC Revenge>Re-Volt.

>>2704089
>is Stage II even retro?
It's a PS1 game so yes.

>>2703269
>not titling the thread /vr/ooooom

>>2710150
Perfect.

Ridge Racer on the PSP is one of the best racing games of all times. (the first one on PSP is better than the 2nd one)

It's a NEW lap record!

>>2710332
shame about the track design though

>>2707717
The most fun I've ever had in any racing game. The controls are just perfect, powersliding is both incredibly simple and incredibly satisfying.

>>2704042
>urban champion: the racing game
>implying it's good enough to be called 'mediocre' or even 'poor'

>>2703269

Pitstop II

>>2703280
+ F-ZERO and Top Gear, the ebst racing games.

>>2711070
wrong place

>>2710484
what's so bad about it?

>>2711471
it's generic, forgettable, and has annoying gimmicks (ice? really? I don't even touch the ground). Two tracks actually left a lasting impression with me. The training course and the final race. Everything in between was just grinding filler

>>2711483
yeah, the ice is weird but i thought the tracks had a bit of substance

>>2711487
It's subjective, I suppose. For me all the game-only tracks felt like they were made for the player and effects. Long straights, few simple turns, and occasionally a special effect or two, that clearly looked as if the whole track only existed because of it. The mentioned tracks are the only exception, because of movie restrictions

>>2710281
But it's just a remake of RR5/6.

>>2711753
I rented 6 ages ago and was pleasently surprised. I liked it quite a lot. Simple as fuck and fast as fuck. HD and los of drifting. I felt it was doing right the things it had to do.

>>2704434

NASCAR was pretty good too.

>>2710637

>the controls are just perfect

It baffles me how some devs shat racers with retarded tier unplayable controls years after Sega Rally or Ridge Racer. I mean, the games aren't even complex simulators, it should be simple to make the controls at least... controllable and don't make you hit the wall at every slight touch on the dpad.

>>2704507

Ah Stunts, god tier.

>hit max speed, max speed til death or you let off the accelerator
>hit ramp at right point, space program, death

The copy protection sucked though.

>>2703379
those are some embarrassing lap times

>>2711841
Pretty sure I was still getting used to the setup. The model 2 emulator doesn't map flappy paddles to gears and I only have flappy paddles. I know that was one of the first times I got that corner really right, hence why I made a webm of it.

>>2709976

that's a platformer, not a racing game

my list:
Atari 2600: Enduro
NES: Micro Machines - R.C. Pro-Am
SNES: Top Gear
PSX: Gran Turismo
PC: Grand Prix Legends

>>2711753
It handles nothing like 5. It's a bit like 6, but has every PS1 Ridge Racer's courses (well, RR2 does at least, the first PSP one is supposed to be almost the same game to the point where times are directly comparable between the two, other than the wildly changed special machines and fewer courses).

Wonderful game. But only tangentially /vr/.

>>2711975
Man, I haven't played that in forever. Used to love the shit out of it.

>>2710868
>urban champion: the racing game
here's your reply

>>2712108
I can't remember if I played 1 or 2 but I remember one of them was lacking and the other one was piss easy. I didn't feel like doing the usual 6 hour ridge racer grind through the easy races.

>>2713242
>Damn this game was fun.

Game designers, especially racing game designers: read this fucking statement right there. Read it, over and over, until you understand it. We don't give a damn how realistic your entry level sim engines are, how realistic the water flows off the digital windshield, or how many car makers you paid to put their cars in your game. We want FUN racing games. Straight up manic speed, insanity. hilarious destruction is optional but welcome. Look at half the games in this thread and you will see they are NOT SERIOUS. Stunts is NOT SERIOUS. Excite Bike is NOT SERIOUS. wipEout, Sega Rally, Ignition, Screamer, you name it. They are NOT SERIOUS. Rollcage is everything but serious. We love these games. Notice the pattern, learn from it.
Understand also, that not serious does not mean easy or careless. All of these games are polished and do what they do with highest quality. Most of these games are brutally difficult in their final stages, and that's fine. We can have fun while being challenged, and we don't need realistic touring cars. We had our fix. Get creative again, you bastards.

>>2713251
>Get creative again, you bastards.
They are trying, now actually. AG racing and arcade racing in general is trying to make a indie comeback.
>Formula Fusion
>Redout
>Neo Fast Racing
>GRIP
>Distance
>That one vaporware wipeout clone that the wipeout zone was making
Hopefully someone somewhere will make a Jet Moto clone eventually.

>>2713272
That game is a joke.

>let's rip off Rollcage and pretend we got the best more original idea ever

Thank you, but I'll just be playing Rollcage 1 and 2 instead.

>>2713251
serious you said?

>>2713272
Formula Fusion, Neo Fast Racing and "wipeout clone" don't strike me as very creative. More like derivatives of one particular game/style. Distance looked promising in the proof of concept demo thing. No idea if they can maintain that momentum. First time I heard of GRIP. Looks to be based on Rollcage. We'll see where it goes, I guess.

Frankly though, clones aren't the way to go. If I want to play wipEout, I can do that already. Same with Rollcage, and even Jet Moto.
Games like wipEout, Star Wars Racer and F-Zero proved how even limitting yourself to one particular mode of transportation (anti gravity, more or less), you can end up with vastly different games, and we know from the late 90s that the arcade racer genre alone had so many varied approaches to going fast. Got to experiment, you know? Designers need that "wouldn't it be cool if" mentality and just do it.

>>2713292
laugh if you want, but I actually had some genuine fun with Championsheep Rally

>>2713291
Well it very clearly says it takes full inspiration from the rollcage games, and even has former rollcage devs working on it. One of them I believe is the codemonkey dude who made rollcage redux and rollcage stage II extreme edition, both of which are ports of the 2 games designed to work perfectly for modern systems.
>>2713293
I know they aren't trying to be very original but I personally think it's better than nothing. It's either this or the as the anon said above, more sim games and semi-sim NFS games, Chances are half of these games won't release anyways. Formula Fusion itself is heading into vaporware territory.
Maybe once AG racing proves itself to be stable in today's market will we get some more original titles.

>>2713292

The industry needs more good arcade racing games. I've been saying this for a while.

Imagine a new ridge racer game. Imagine Spit Second: Unbounded never happened. Imagine R4's cool little storyline things expanded upon without shitty cut scenes or voice acting, with the speed of ridge racer 64 and more handling depth than R4.

I've been working all of this up in my head in case I ever win the lottery.

>>2713415
Trackmania
Distance
Wreckfest

>>2704504
fucking great game holy shit I'd forgotten it ever existed

Ignore the shitty Fox Kids logo. It's Micro Machines if everyone was on foot.

This bad boy right here. Fuck the second one. This one is GOAT

What about World Rally Fever: Born on the Road?

has anyone beat ridge racer 64 z class?

It's Micro Machines with guns. And it's a J-Cart for easy 4 player action.

You can even get 8 players with 4 controllers. I've never tried it and it's probably shit, but it could be good for a laugh.

I really, really like Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2.

It's not a good game, but I like it.

>>2715468

What do you need to know?

>>2715647
how are you supposed to drift going a million miles per hour?

>>2711952
N64?

>>2715808
Don't, use the screamin' eagle and hit the brakes going into the corner instead. When you do this the car will turn but not slide. I can't remember if you have to stay on the gas while braking or not.

Basically Z class is an entirely different handling style, but once you figure it out it's easy.

>>2711975
mah nigga

NFS 2,3, and 4 was the shit. Especially the dynamic music. Get the music torrent download by zonda01 if you haven't already.

>>2716471
NFS4 was the pinnacle of the entire series. It perfected everything NFS was about. The cars were at their most luxurious, the tracks were at their most spectacular, the police had just the right amount of aggression, and the whole career mode is still unparalleled.

Man, I've never understood why some people enjoy gx so much. It just feels way to jerky for me.

X and Diddy Kong Racing are by far my two favorite racing games.

>>2716480
Isn't GX a locked 60 fps?

>>2716482
I believe so.

Still, for an n64 game to run at 60fps was pretty damn cool. Sure the graphics suffered for it, but it was worth it.

>>2716474
Yep it did. Though, I preferred 3 for music

http://216.227.134.162/ost/need-for-speed-3-hot-pursuit-pc-rip-/mtifcmprri/06-romulus-3.mp3

>>2716480
That's emulator.
The fog was particulary bad in FZERO 64.

>>2716486
Somebody needs to romhack this, with the only difference being that when you fall off it displays "RETARD".

>>2715093
As a 20-something, the FoxKids.com logo only serves to make the game look even more appealing. FoxKids had one of the greatest games pages to have ever graced the internet.

Never heard of this game though, definitely gonna check it out later.

>>2716509
why software rendering?

also NFS3 feels more 'actually' difficult, while in NFS4 the AI just crashes into you more often

>>2716480
>>2716486
GX is more reflex and quick button presses oriented. (momentum turbo slide, what the fuck]
X is more similar to SNES.

Reading this thread makes me wanna make my own racing game, although I should probably start off by making some 2D side-scrolling platformer/shooter instead.

I got pic related recently and it's pretty good. I suck dick at it of course, but my dream is to get the actual arcade machine someday, the one that has 3 monitors.

Not strictly a pure racing game but it's fucking glorious.

As was the first one.

Only the most important, most influential and seminal racing game of them all...

>>2704516
>>2704759
I remember the first time I played Virtua Racing. It was really impressive seeing how smooth it was rotating the câmera (or VR Views), but I felt it a bit slow.

Then years later, I met this game. Ace Driver. Only one track but... God damn, smooth, good sense of speed and weight, tight controls, good feedback on steering wheel.

I understand people having fond memories from console racing games, but the arcade ones from the 90s felt really special.
Most of them (especially Sega cabinets) had a sub-woofer under the seat, so the bass did quite a good job replicating the feeling of the car engine. The force feedback on the steering wheel was often way stronger than the average console accessory - and it could actually hurt younger players - as hardcore as it could get.

>>2703356
Aw shit, my very first PC game.

>>2711895

>>2718821
This game is incredible. I love it so freaking much. While Gran Turismo was doing everything relatively sloppy, this game was laser focused into doing just ONE thing right: F355 simulation. Of course people loved GT more because of the variety but oh man, I love it so much.

>>2718821
I love this game, for what it is it's pretty much perfect. It's a simulation, but one you can dip in and out of and play in quick bursts. I have to turn the music off though.

>>2719434

Dreamcast or PS2 version?

It's hard to tell because both are a framerate mess on native hardware even though both are unlocked FPS. The PS2 holds 60FPS better because it was always running a lower internal resolution than the DC version but man did that game chunk up.

Holds up amazingly well in PCSX2 though.

>>2704036
the rush games still hold up pretty well, imo

>>2703369
Oh shit, I had this game for Dreamcast but it was called Tokyo Extreme Racer. It was really weird and I was too young to figure it out, but I loved driving around the city at night.

>>2703269
The 32X version is loads of fun but it wears out quickly.

>>2704434
I had it on my 286, sluggish and buggy as shit but had some fun with it.

>>2704507
And to think there are still some groups playing tournaments of Stunts on custom tracks and stuff. This game trully left its mark

>>2725692
buggy?

>>2725696
mostly because there's no suitable replacement that nails all aspects

>>2703364
you sir, win.

>>2725697
Yeah, probably my floppies were fucked,it kept exiting to prompt or freezeng every so soften. I lacked a hard drive and booted everything from RAM. My disks broke constantly and after a few years of this, I realized they where extremly close to a pulse phone next to the PC.

>>2725702
Tru dat

>>2725708
maybe give this game another chance. It was one of the first actual "sims", and due to its age, the simulation model is actually very approachable and satisfying

Neo Drift Out for Neo Geo. Great agme.

>>2725385
>This was not my point
Then you didn't have a point.

>>2710253

this is like the only PS1 game that won't emulate on the PSP. so bummed.

>>2725739
play the redux version on windows

>>2703503

>Pulsar GTI-R

Best starting car in the game, hands down. Also an amazing car in general.

MY MOTHERFUCKING TURBONIGGER

So i've got MAME and want to play some colorful 3D racing from the arcade machines. What should i pick? Are there some essentials that behave well when emulated? There were literally no machines around during my childhood so i dont know any and the single one i played was Cruisin'USA to test the emulator. Also, can you suggest any retro (or not) PC title with that kind of arcade machine spirit? Only one i can think about besides ports are Screamer 1.

>>2726420
World Rally Fever is a Power Drift clone.

>>2726420
Not exactly racing, but close enough: you must, no excuses, you must play OutRun. The game's a legend, and that status is fully justified

>Only one i can think about besides ports are Screamer 1.
You're sadly entirely correct. Screamer went all out on the arcade feel. There are games shooting in a similar direction, like Whiplash, but only Screamer really pins that thing down perfectly. Also Screamer 2 and Rally.
For the latter 2, if you use a glide wrapper, you can even get some very nice visuals

This thing.

>>2726420
Moto Racer.

arcade, but a little early, not exactly representative of the Ridge Racer kind of fad

>Dethkarz
futuristic, another miss

>Rally Championship
>Viper Racing
soft sims

>>2726528
That looks terrible, bordering on unplayable

>>2726528
O, i know that thing, i had it on some bootleg compilation back in the beginning of 2000s. Didnt had the video card for it though, so only played it at my friend's place.

>>2726524
>Hard Truck — Road to Victory
Another friend gave it to me for new year. Good stuff, and back in the day many people went full patriotic about playing the series.

>>2726471
Didnt even knew that existed, thanks.

>>2726447
>POD
Good stuff, i played it sometime ago, but way to grimdark for the request and - strangely - way too realistic.
>H.A.V.E a nice day
That was the deal. Beat it three or four times back in the day. The gameplay was simple but really addictive, Impala league was my favorite. Also it was among the first legally released titles in Russia, the publisher, Amber, did a really good job localizing it, it ran like charm on 3 year old PCs and the price for jewel version were more than affordable - the game was for the forming russian market just what doctor ordered.

Thanks everybody, but what about ROMs to emulate?

>>2726569
Now the nostalgia hit me, thanks guys. I wonder if it works well in W7x64.

>>2726569
N.I.C.E 2 was nice too. I loved the way its nitro was implemented. Infinity supply, but you got to watch your engine temperature.

>>2726569
>Thanks everybody, but what about ROMs to emulate?
AB Cops, Rad Mobile, Super Chase Criminal Termination, Outrunners.

>>2726586
Those are surely great, but i am more in the mood for 3D ones. Thanks anyway. Is that just Cruisin'USA then?

>>2726483
I have only played OR2006 that far and that was good fun. Did you emulate the arcade one? Will go nice with the keyboard?

>>2726775
>3D
>Arcade Rom
eheheh

>>2726787
Okay smart one, what should i call them?

>>2726787

Crusin' USA and World emulates fine in MAME ever since they figured the U64 board hardware. It's one of the only ones that does.

The original game had a shit framerate even on the arcade board so expect shitty performance.

>>2726820
Well it's sad then. Scud race goes great with supermodel and even in widescreen, but the keyboard controls are oversensitive.

>>2726820
>It's one of the only ones that does.
What are the others?

You guys are missing some of the good "overhead view" racers from DOS.

Like Death Rally, Super Speed, and Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off Road.

Maybe I should make some webms.

>>2726848
Also, Excessive speed, though it is for Windows.

Fuck. Turns out that Have a NICE day! actually had an addon called track pack and it even avaliable (http://www.legendsworld.net/shooter/game/8084)... EXCEPT FOR THAT LAST 20KB PIECE OF FUCKING ARCHIVE THAT CONTAINS THE FINAL PART OF THE FUCKING .MDF!
Does someone have the iso by any chance?

A retro racing thread feels naked without that cover.

ADVENTUREEEE RACING!

>>2726778
I did emulate the arcade one. It runs flawlessly but you will not have much fun with a keyboard. When I tried it, the controls felt terribly laggy, because of the way the analog controls map to the keyboard. Like it takes time for the analog steering wheel to re-center, when you release a key. Instead I play it with a 360 controller, which works flawlessly. Of course a wheel would be ideal, but joystick or thumbstick are a good second option. Avoid the keyboard, if you can.

>>2726778
if your previous experience with OutRun was just 2006, be prepared for a bit of a surprise. OutRun is much harder than 2006 ever wished to be. It's also much more focused. You only got the OutRun mode, and nothing else. But it'll take you a few trials to see even just one goal,

>>2726790
You should call them Cruisin'Usa, since it's almost the only one you would be able to play on Mame.

>>2727561
World runs fine here. Make sure you turn on multithreading it helps a lot.

>>2727561
You don't have to use MAME. There's a namco system whatever emulator for ridge racer, and a model 2 and model 3 emulators although they are quite buggy.
Everything else SEGA should work on Demul.

>>2727568
I mean, model 3 is buggy, model 2 should work fine on Elsemi's.

>>2704159
>Genesis version isn't ideal

Call me crazy, but I actually prefer the Mega Drive version. The music sounds better than on the arcade in my opinion.

>>2727764
You're crazy

>>2727764

I agree about the music part, but the gameplay lacks a little IMO. GBA version has awesome controls, it's a shame isn't graphically good as Genesis or have a good soundtrack, fucking gba soundchip
