You can play this game end to end with one hand. What you do with your other hand is your choice!

I just want to mention the SNES port of Race Drivin’, for its much worse arcade to console downgrade, and its slightly less horrific use of an apostrophe.

Scuse me, Beetle Adventure Racing is the of all time.

That game went so hard! All the tracks were super unique and had a bunch of secrets

The announcer voice was amazing too.

“INFERNO ISLE!”

“HOT LAAAAVA!”

Out of all the racing games on the Nintendo 64, that was one of them.

That era of arcade games was some of the best ever.

“COMING SOON FOR THE NINTENDO ULTRA 64!”

I had my initials in the top spot of so many cruisn world arcade systems in my city. Loved that game.

Rush 2 was the far superior N64 arcade racer

I really enjoyed Extreme-G, but never hear much about it nowadays.

"Still, there goes one of the racing games I ever had"

How many people inserted "best" into that sentence subconsciously?

SomeoneSomewhere, 10 miesięcy temu

I think the ‘ever’ implies a ‘best’. You need both or neither.

orbitz, 10 miesięcy temu

Does it? You would say that’s one of the ever I had of a steak sandwich, if it was one of the best. It seems like it needs best/worst/mediocre sort of descriptive word in there to make sense. Mean you can guess from the scene and tone but I’d never write it out or even say it that way. Of course I never did well in English and am glad to learn new things.

It could just be sarcasm, like, “it was certainly one of the games of 2024”

The best part of that game was when he said "IT’S CRUIS’N USA TIME’ and cruis’d all over those guys

I read it correctly and then re-read because I felt like I must have missed the word and it would actually be there. Then I read it a third time to really make sure.

This was the only reason I went to church for a few years. To sneak to the annex and drive.

I credit this game for the way I drive today.

The School Bus belongs in Smash Bros.

EdibleFriend, 10 miesięcy temu (edited 10 miesięcy temu)

Literally the first thing that pops into my mind when I think about this as well. And you had to do a secret code to get it, even in the arcade! Something to do with turning the wheel a few times and then the gas and brake in a certain order?

Edit- looked it up. was just holding down view 2. thought there was more to it.

Did you know there is a sequel on the nintendo switch? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cruis'n_Blast

The real SMB2 was on Super Mario All-Stars for the SNES and I gotta say… The reskinned Doki Doki Panic is a better game.

samus12345, 10 miesięcy temu

It is, but it doesn’t play like a Super Mario Bros. game at all. They just got away with it because the series was still new.

Kolanaki, 10 miesięcy temu

Even back then, when you jumped onto the first enemy and just… Stood on them instead of killing them was pretty different.

GladiusB, 10 miesięcy temu

It wasn’t totally outrageous though. Zelda did it. I think there might be more, but I’m old and this is reaching way back in the memory banks.

We used to compare Zelda II, SMB 2, and Castlevania II for all taking weird swings before swerving back for their third entries.

I remember when Mario 3 came out, there was so much hype and demand for yet another sequel that a local game rental store put a copy of “Super Mario Bros. 4” on their shelf. Astonished at our good fortune, we immediately rented it.

Our first clue something was off: the box was much different, square-shaped. Mario was on the box, but the writing was all in Japanese.

The game cartridge was also odd, but we just chalked it up to being a super-secret Japanese release and rushed home to play it. Looking back, It was actually a Famicom cartridge with a converter attached to it.

When we turned on the game, it gave us Mario game and a Luigi game options. We were quite befuddled to pick up the poison mushroom almost immediately and get that face-slap the game was intended to deliver. Somehow my brother later discovered he could play even harder levels right away by holding one or 2 of the buttons while pressing start.

Overall it was a bit disappointing, but it was the game we selected to rent so we were stuck with it and played the hell out of it. What a weird surprise to see it come back years later on the SNES…

The SNES release letscyou save after every level which was totally necessary for my American ass
