Good video

3D Classics: Rad Racer

[kidkidkid12345]

Funnier than Final Fantasy XIII.

[Cameron17901]

"Highway Star" excellent. That mean Metroid was going to be called " Space Truckin" ?

[InsanityOnABunFilms]

THIS GAME WAS AWESOME!!

[MechanicalInternet]

How does one program something like this? If it can be done on the NES, then it must be easy to do it in today's standards, yet I can't figure out how to make the road move left and right, let alone give the illusion of 3D.

[9esferas1]

the raster engine is pretty good

[TheSCCP]

Wow I had this game.... so nostalgic ....

[eurikamerleau]

This is a reenactment of my morning commute when my alarm doesn't go off.

[TeslaDRay]

@eurikamerleau

haahahahahahahahahahahhahaha.

[Sonictails1]

Anyone notice that this theme sounds the same as from the game Wurm?

[TeslaDRay]

@Sonictails1

i dont notice, when im playing the rom on my computer, i blast my own musicl.

[MetalScythe82]

I used to play this game as well as the 2nd one back then when they first came out. i wonder if this one along with RR2 is still out there for sale because i would like to get them, or unless they have them for download?

[shaurz]

This game makes me feel I am urgently racing in order to rescue someone or escape some kind of disaster.

[SantiagoKali]

Aww memories.

[MegaSpooke]

So many hours spend with this game in my childhood Q_Q

[kennysuavo]

emulater?

[SHUUNNNNN]

CHALLENGE AND FIGHTING AND FIGHTING THE CHALLENGE TONIGHT

[minzu79]

that was my first video game

[MrStewToobe]

I wish I had this back in the day, I would always look at the screenshot of the game on my NES Action Set box and always be dazzled by it.

very fun game indeed.

[JackBandicootsBunker]

@cjjtheone I think that this game deserves more than that. It deserves to be a saga, so that Square steps away from Final Fantasy a bit. I'm sick and tired of the same things over and over again, and Agito and XIII-2 will be mediocre like XIII.

[ParanoidMilitantNyc]

Lmao@ 1:45

[0Imtheslime0]

First game i owned on NES.. It was hard and i never completed it.

[inc2000glw]

i like it cause the screen shooke and the sound of the skiddd.. brpbrpoppopopbprp

[SONIC2620081981]

are you using the power glove? ?

[eyeswideopen82]

I remember the second track and how awesome I thought the background graphics were in the 80's.

The NES was the 360 of the 80's and early 90's.

[mechahalcon]

Did you know the music for this game was composed by none other than Nobuo Uematsu, pre-final fantasy fame. You can hear it in all his compositions, very Uematsu sounding.

[devuurheer]

looks realy good for the nes

[MacDragard]

I'm playing Rad Racer with the Power Glove and wearing 3-D glasses. You can't get more rad than that!

[TheRandomInternetGuy]

@MacDragard AVGN quote...

[MacDragard]

@TheRandomInternetGuy Nothing gets past you, sleuth.

[DURAMATRIX112]

wow i love this game i was playing it and i realized i pushed the select button and the 3-d mode came up.

i was like woahhhhhhhh XD

[TBustah]

So THAT'S why Stinkoman's theme didn't make it into the StrongBad games for Wii...

[SIXSTRINGER31]

damn!!! youtube really brings the nolstalgia up! i love this.

[Zawicki1]

Challenge and fighting and fighting the challenge toniiiiiight...somethin and a somethin and a somethin and a somethin and a...

Stinkoman, Everyone says your the guy. But I want to be the guy too! No way! Your just a kid!

XD

[Ryan18181]

wow this bring back memories, i used to think the other cars where baddies, cant believe this came out 23 years ago i feel old now lol!

[qman2000]

i used to have this game and plated the hell ot of it. man memories. thanx.

[THEmuteKi]

The BGM even sounds like Magical Sound Shower. Well, a little.

[blackiron44]

i always love as you slide off the road and you manage to get back RIGHT before slamming into a tree/light lol, talk about ACTION!

[vonghoul]

I had this game and loved it even though im not a big race game fan. the thing i think i loved the most about this game is the soundtrack. Good times.

[grabisoft]

hey, one question. Im looking for a NES game, similar to RAD RACER. but with bikes instead of cars. I remember playing the game when i was a kid. But it wasnt rally bike, it was another one. I remember that in the background there were buildings of a city and your goal was to avoid the incoming cars and reach the city. It was kind of fun but i dont remember the name of the game.

[HardWiredGaming]

grabisoft: I'm thinking that the game you're thinking of is Mach Rider.

[grabisoft]

thanks for responding HWG, but thats not the game.. but yes, its similar. I just cant remember the name :(, thanks anyway

[Verrie77]

Mach Rider perhaps ?

[RealShrp]

@grabisoft try Zippy Race, after you clear the initial level.. towards the end you progress towards a city with cars coming at you. :) Hope this helps.

[grabisoft]

@RealShrp @RealShrp oh my god , THATS THE GAME !!!! you made my day dude

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! youre THE man

[englandrulez1]

@grabisoft: maybe zippy race

[donkeykong1882]

@grabisoft

I know your not thinking of Road Rash, but if you like this, you'd like that.

[bedtime420]

@grabisoft road rash?

[mrlemmon]

@grabisoft Mach Rider?

[kennysuavo]

@grabisoft exite bike

[KCwellard]

Looks pretty epic for a NES game tbf! (;

[kingchubz123]

woah square made this game ......l

[jonhead57]

I have this game on my nes.Very good car game, and with the red/green glasses is awesome ;)

[dmchristy7038]

i have this game

[roppokai1]

WANT TO SELL IT?

[YoshiFlame]

"Challenge and Fighting!"

[JacobUNLEASHED]

STINKOMAN 20X6!!

[HardWiredGaming]

Seeing this video again reminds me of how much I miss the videos PlayItBogart did involving this game.

[hotelcesa]

The tune makes me think on Mute City.

[EmOneGarand]

lmao! They used that music for the Stinkoman beat in the Japanese Cartoon flash cartoon of Strong Bad Email

[stephensamperi]

if you press select everything looks crazy.....is that for 3d glasses?

[AresCassell]

I remember that happening when I had the game as a kid. I think it is indeed for the 3d effect.

[vosebroy2]

it iss

[supermariobro93]

Wow. This game is just like Out Run (Sega Genesis / Master System / Arcade). For a game that's really old, this game is very impressive!

[HardWiredGaming]

supermariobro93: Back before they were all about RPGs and extremely feminine male leads, Square pretty much played Follow the Leader with Sega.

[NintendoCPU]

sorry to bother but how do you get music in this game? when i play theres none

[HardWiredGaming]

NintendoCPU: Just press down during the race. It's a dumb button assignment, yes, but that's the only place they could put it, I suppose.

[NintendoCPU]

thanks the second version was better for music selection

[ztwntyn8]

@HardWiredGaming I remember that on this game.

[mrnuage]

It's funny because until 87 when the first FF was released on the famicom, SQUARE was inspired by what SEGA was doing in the arcade. Look at world runner it's like space harrier and rad racer is like outrun. But then, since the first Final Fantasy was released they didn't care anymore about SEGA

[honeymustardn]

Instead they started caring about Enix ;)

[enertronfilms]

this game is harder than life itself. you always run out of gas like ellen's career

[playswow112]

this game licks my nuts in my ass 1 star

[HardWiredGaming]

playswow112: I'm sorry, did someone ask your mindless, trolling opinion, little boy?

[flyer3985]

one of my favorite games of all time, thanks for the video

[2002altima]

I like the third music chose

[2002altima]

I got this game

[zeldafreak323]

Me too

[Rajal4]

kick Ass!
