ive looked at this game three times at the game store and just laughed at the cover of it. But this actually looks fun. I'm going to buy it next time.
Jeremy, I just played this game with the Game Genie, and I found out that there are four distinct endings:
3rd place: This is the one that you got.
2nd place: Kirk describes "that other guy" as a "blur" and is confident that we can get first place.
1st place: Kirk is happy and can't wait to do it again.
Not enough qualifying points after the park: Kirk says they'll let us skate for fun before the actual racers compete. Afterwards, he says it was nice of them, but he wants to compete.
awesome, thanks for letting me know! sort of rare for an NES game to have different endings so that's pretty cool. this is one of those games that wasn't as bad as i remembered for some reason, i actually had fun playing it
I just got this game today! (: and wow is it intersting to say the least. Lol and its made by Hi Tech who made great games such as barbie.....yeaaaaaaa
No, they published both games. Radiance developed this game (as well as The Great Waldo Search) and Imagineering developed Barbie (who did several NES titles like Home Alone 2, Swamp Thing, Bart Vs The Space Mutants, Bart Vs The World, Race America). There's also a DOS version of Rollerblade Racer while having better graphics sucks more. There's also a female version of Kirk named Trish.
If you think that was bad, you shoulda seen the ending for 2nd place... it's just as crappy!! This game sucked so much ass it should be in the video game hall of shameful CRAP!!
That's true for MOST games. But, I think there were a few good endings in most games. I.E. Contra, RollerGames, Super Dodge Ball, the Rad Racer series, Final Fantasy, Rush'N Attack, Zelda I & II and much more. But, I think the number of crappy endings (for both FamiCom and NES) majorly outweigh the good ones. XP
yea, i still prefer old school graphics myself. SNES was the greatest system EVER and I'd take those graphics any day over the "realistic" stuff today. That's another reason I love the Wii so much is because graphics is not a primary concern. let our imagination run wild and do all the work instead of giving us a video game that looks like a movie, especially with role playing games... that's what i think anyways
yea, I hate rap myself but I have to admit I like that Handlebar song. And yea, it's a nice looking game, very colorful. I love old school graphics though :)
@SomeLittleKidd thanks, you are awesome :)

Tinkidink 3 years ago
Really? O-o I enjoyed it, too... that is, until I found out the endings suck. o-o
BattleGolferYui 3 years ago
lol, yea the ending did suck... that's the problem with a lot of the old NES games, they didn't really have room to program good endings

Those games look so primitive these days - yet back then they seemed like the biggest deal there could be.

That rap at the end was pretty good. I normally don't like rap, but that was pretty good.
Graphic Wise, this game looks pretty good, I am surprised that there wasn't any flicker. But graphics don't make the game.
