Ivan "Ironman" Stewart's Super Off-Road (Arcade)

Pretty slow version, nothing fancy. RATED PG-13 for obvious reasons.

the arcade game had steering wheels you could spin 360 degrees. I haven't yet seen a home steering wheel that will do that, so it's always a bit imperfect playing it at home... pity. it's fun!

And the sling bikinis were turned into cocktail dresses in Midway Arcade Treasures Deluxe Edition. The Genesis version's outfits were even smaller than these here.

Yeah, if I recall, there was a dipswitch option in the arcade version where among difficulty (sadly, this is on easiest and it's still impossible) and cost to play, yo ucould change between bikinis and dresses. I didn't realize you could change until after this video, but oh well...

[XSC3]

So the dresses ARE arcade accurate? I presumed they were edited into the NES and MAT:DE versions to keep it away from some kind of adult warning label. I only ever saw the bikinis in the arcade. IF there's a dip setting, I would think it would be in mame, since they emulate the dip switches (and as far as I can tell that game is perfectly emulated in Mame).

[Eric4372]

Yeah, I have an ancient version of mame (0.62). I know it's up to 1.00's now, but I updated and it wouldn't run some games, so I kept the old version cause it still works for me.

This game used to be at my nearby skating rink and the girls were in bikinis. That was a long time ago. Guess for home consoles they decided to go for the dresses. Then again, I've played several home ports and none were as fun as the arcade version (not cause of the bikini babes).

And also, in the dipswitch options, you could change the eight countries you can base your profile on. Like you can have a driver from Sri Lanka or Zimbabwe or something and it'll play that national anthem when you win, lol.

After you win a race, Ivan will try to lap the ENTIRE field in the next race, which is embarrassing!

[Eric4372]

Ivan Ironman Stewart cheats a lot, especially when you win several times in a row. Worst part of the game.

Cuz of the babes in swim suits. Very naughty stuff.

I got the SNES version of Off-road but it is totally different from the arcade version and nes version. Well not really, but I think by then they had lost the liscensing of Ivan Stewart because it's just called super off-road and the shop where you get your upgrades does not appear and the screen where it shows the winner and plays the short intro of the star spangeled banner when you win first place, just plays a short funk song instead.

@padre1917 exactly. I would pump soooooo many quarters into that thing. I love whipping the steering wheel around since it was 360.

[arcusdog]

Do you have the actual arcade game or is this an emulator?

[zsybrant]

They have this fucking game where I work. I get so tired of hearing the crap.

[alanciux]

@jafwilding Rock and roll racing, maybe?

[alanciux]

Omg, i used to play this...

[jafwilding]

Does anyone remember a similar game, with very similar track layout, handling etc., but was set in the future and you could shoot other cars? Think it was called something "Badlands"?

LOVED this game!..used to play it in Claude's casino in Salthill,Galway in the west of Ireland......those were the days....pity it's not in the Nintendo Wii shop....yet!!

this sounds like it uses the spc 700 chip (of snes fame) for the music.
