After having to play this over and over again in Shenmue, this is a lesson I learned the hard way. Not only do you lose speed with the brake, but it doesn't let you ease into the turns, ruining your momentum. That said, this video is a level of mastery I could never achieve - I NEED the "G" Easter egg in Stage 4 to give me enough time to win!
Agree with this. I've completed this with 12 seconds spare 2 handed, and 9 seconds spare 1 handed (arcade). I've not played this game for over 30 years and its still amazing how I remember all the corners and where they used to try and catch you out.
Back in the day I knew kids who would just clear up the game with one single dime. Among other fond memories, I remember heading straight to the arcades (that was in '87) to play this game from afternoon school before home to do the homeworks. This was the first game that gave the player a real feeling of speed and you were kinda of afraid to crash the bike. This game was replaced in our arcade (and same spot) a few months later by double dragon which just came out...and the same kid again crashed double dragon too 🤣
Hang on and super hang on was my thing on Holiday....I used to have my name at the top of the score board on all the local arcades..and this music takes me right back to the 80's as an excited 10 year old
I remember this well late 80's,first big bike,dressed in leathers and playing this is the local acrade,without putting feet down and doing it properly......trying to impress the birds.....How funny,good times and a cracking game,many a 20pence a game was spent!!
I remember being, what, 5? 6? maybe 7? in an arcade on Great Yarmouth sea-front and you could hear the title theme blaring out of the cabinet. Takes me back.
Our local cineplex had the sit down version of this game. You really had to lean into those turns. Love how there is a Marlboro ad in the game. Everybody smoked in 1985.
wow i just happened to come across the video , it brings back so many memories when i was on vacation with my parents and siblings in italy , right across from the resort was an arcade with a simualtor where this game was to be played , unbelievable to see this again after over 30 years
it's crazy how far graphics have come. We went from this to Ride 4. I've never seen a more photorealistic game. I wonder what the 80's kids would think of it after playing Hang-on.
Hi! 80's kid here - Hang On *was* super realistic to us - especially for it's time. Way better than Enduro Racer or Excite Bike as far as that's concerned. Then Super Hang-On in '87 entered the chat. Also, not sure if you're aware, but the control at the arcade was an actual "motorcycle" you sat on and could lean which really helped the realism.
Increíble, fue uno de los juegos más innovadores y era uno de los primeros juegos de arcade de Sega en 16-bits… fue lanzado en 1985, justamente en ese mismo año Sega se lanzó la exitosa placa arcade en 16-bits "System 16" exclusivamente para las máquinas recreativas en Japón.
Who else found out about these games from playing Sonic Riders? There's a gear based on the arcade machine itself and even Super Hang-On. They even change the stage BGM to the games' race themes
yes it did, i allways remember going to the arcade getting change for my pound and hearing the intro music to this wooooh now that takes me back, i want to be a kid again they were great times late 80s early 90s for many young whipper snappers like me
This definitely not the stand up arcade version. You would never be able to maneuver in quick jerks left-right and those nearby crashes, would of definitely been crashes. Nevertheless good work!
If this Sega Arcade game came to Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PS4 as if Turbo Outrun, After Burner, Thunder Blade must is something great to have even if that already did on Nintendo 3DS. The upgrades such as high powered engine, hi grip tires, armored bumpers and easier turning already happened in Outrun as if that must happen in Hang On minus the armored bumpers and Turbo Outrun, including a never overheating turbo booster.
I've never made it past stage 3. On Shenmue you can play the game with the d-pad but it's basically unplayable because it never recenters the rider. The analog stick returns the rider to neutral when it's not being touched.
You said the intro music to Hang-On sounds exactly like the intro music to Afterburner. Since I've played both games from when they appeared in arcades, I can say no they don't.
Your telling me the first few seconds to this video sound nothing like this /watch?v=MxLM25-qNJs I'm sorry but it's pretty much the same key, same first chords, same rhythm.
En el juego se aprecian varias publicidades de marcas reconocidas como Shell,Tag Heuer o Marlboro. Pero hay una como los carteles que aparecen en 1:25 que parecen mostrar a un pez o un delfín creo¿creo quien sabe que publicidad pueda ser esa?
Yes, if you are referring to the ride-on cabinet version. There were also two traditional upright cabinet versions: one where you stand (most common), and another with a chair to sit down in.
This game looks great on sitting arcade cabinet or the stand up arcade,its cost controversy in Japan of involving female players on the bike cabinet,i like the arcade cabinet of After Burner II and Galaxy Force II looks great too
The thing that really made me resent Hang On was all the Star Rider machines got converted to it :( And most of those Star Rider boards and laserdiscs were probably junked. That masterpiece, for this shit.

I remember cleaning up at this game at the local 7-11 when I was a kid. The key is letting up on the throttle on corners instead of using the brake.
After having to play this over and over again in Shenmue, this is a lesson I learned the hard way. Not only do you lose speed with the brake, but it doesn't let you ease into the turns, ruining your momentum.

Some arcades had the actual bike to sit on. I loved when I found those
What brake? 😂
Hang on and super hang on was my thing on Holiday....I used to have my name at the top of the score board on all the local arcades..and this music takes me right back to the 80's as an excited 10 year old
One of the best, if not the best intro title screens of all time.
If you ask me, the music in this game is truly the best tune for racing to.
What? Its one of the most boringly repetitive tunes in a game ever.
@@Ass_Burgers_Syndrome What an exaggeration.
Seriously? Or being sarcastic?
I think I played this game soley for the music.
@@aodhablackheart nah he's being autistic
At Sega headquarters:
Worker: "Namco's Pole Position is a really famous arcade game!!! How can we get famous?"
Boss: "Just make 'em ride motorcycles."
I remember this well late 80's,first big bike,dressed in leathers and playing this is the local acrade,without putting feet down and doing it properly......trying to impress the birds.....How funny,good times and a cracking game,many a 20pence a game was spent!!
The title screen was truly amazing in 1985 :)
Yes it was
I remember being, what, 5? 6? maybe 7? in an arcade on Great Yarmouth sea-front and you could hear the title theme blaring out of the cabinet. Takes me back.
The Best 👍🏻
i really like this game! Though, it might sound tad tricky if your new to it.
This player who played this game in this video is just PERFECT!!!!
This and OutRun have music that still stands the test of time.
Sega had some of the best cabinets back in the 80's/90's. Hang on, afterburner, g loc... Oh man they take me back
Don't forget the sequel, Super Hang-On.
@@kingbawesome and you both are forgetting the most iconic one.... a certain OUT RUN!!!!
And virtua racing too !
Space Harrier, Power Drift, Galaxy force 2
Daytona USA
the intensity at the start of this game would get you every time! classic
Our local cineplex had the sit down version of this game. You really had to lean into those turns. Love how there is a Marlboro ad in the game. Everybody smoked in 1985.
Legendary. Starts in 8th position and ends in -191st place.
Oh my God , so many memories with this game. It was one of my favorites. ☺
wow i just happened to come across the video , it brings back so many memories when i was on vacation with my parents and siblings in italy , right across from the resort was an arcade with a simualtor where this game was to be played , unbelievable to see this again after over 30 years
A short and hard game. Still very addictive to play today.
Legendary soundtrack.
it's crazy how far graphics have come. We went from this to Ride 4. I've never seen a more photorealistic game. I wonder what the 80's kids would think of it after playing Hang-on.
They would've probably thought it was just as photorealistic. Lol
Hi! 80's kid here - Hang On *was* super realistic to us - especially for it's time. Way better than Enduro Racer or Excite Bike as far as that's concerned.
Then Super Hang-On in '87 entered the chat.

One of my favorite arcade games. At one point, I had thoughts of becoming a motorcycle racer.
After all these years and countless quarters, I finally saw the end of this game by watching it on TH-cam🤣
Used to play this as a kid @ my local seafood joint. Man how I loved this game, and it's music!
one of the shortest longplays ever
Increíble juego de mi infancia. La banda sonora es pegadiza !!!!
Increíble, fue uno de los juegos más innovadores y era uno de los primeros juegos de arcade de Sega en 16-bits… fue lanzado en 1985, justamente en ese mismo año Sega se lanzó la exitosa placa arcade en 16-bits "System 16" exclusivamente para las máquinas recreativas en Japón.
Me encanta la música principal de esto. La única razón por la que no veo Super Hang On, jaja, vine por la música.
Who else found out about these games from playing Sonic Riders?
There's a gear based on the arcade machine itself and even Super Hang-On.
They even change the stage BGM to the games' race themes
One of the two best machines in Zero Gravity don't @ me
I found out from playing Shenmue
great job, it's an amazing game and not easy
this was included with my European sega master system. It was the first game that I finished! great memories. The port was top notch!!!!
the same year we got super mario bros. on the NES, there were games with these graphics in the arcades
This is big technological achievement considering it's from 1985
yes it did, i allways remember going to the arcade getting change for my pound and hearing the intro music to this wooooh now that takes me back, i want to be a kid again they were great times late 80s early 90s for many young whipper snappers like me
After watching this, I suddenly want a Marlboro red
And a JPS. There were two cigarette branded signs!
This definitely not the stand up arcade version. You would never be able to maneuver in quick jerks left-right and those nearby crashes, would of definitely been crashes. Nevertheless good work!
I love how there's just straight up marlboro and JPS ads in this game.
Nice this level music was also featured in Sonic Riders when you use the Hang On Gear!
Bro that JPS logo got me there, those good old days when you can put real brands in games and not pay for sponsorship
Willy Pro And what’s more, Tobacco and Alcohol brands no less...!
that dolphin sign will forever be my enemy!
I remember playing this game at the local ice cream shop for years. I was so made when they got rid of it.
Crotch rocket, vroom vroom! Nothing say cycles, or easy, like a fine Suzuki on the Suzuka!
Shoot I thought I was good, this person kicked ass. Nice flashback
Nice memories from my childhood. Ost I never forgot though.
good morning
I used to play this game all of the time back in the day.
I'm surprised I'm drunk enough to have watched that entire video.
It's 6 mins long. Are you still drunk?
if you pause at 3:06 you'll see a Marlboro sign,just like in Pole Position.it's so fast though you have to pause to see it :P
Back in the day i found a place which had the bike, good stuff.
i think that was Barry Sheene's Suzuki @0:37
In 1985 a kids video game had ads for Marlboro. 😂
And THAT my friends, is how you play...
wow really cool. cool graphics!
Don't hit the brakes when going fast, I learned the hard way..
What sort of PC is needed to emulate Sega's Super Scaler games at full speeds? I hear they are pretty tough to emulate.
nice play! bravo!
If this Sega Arcade game came to Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PS4 as if Turbo Outrun, After Burner, Thunder Blade must is something great to have even if that already did on Nintendo 3DS.
The upgrades such as high powered engine, hi grip tires, armored bumpers and easier turning already happened in Outrun as if that must happen in Hang On minus the armored bumpers and Turbo Outrun, including a never overheating turbo booster.
I remember super hang on for genesis. I never knew about the turbo button until watching a youtube vid just recently! lol.
just realized the map layout for this game is on the megadrive version of super hang-on's original mode
Very well done
Cómo me gustaban mucho los juegos de Sega !!!
I've never made it past stage 3. On Shenmue you can play the game with the d-pad but it's basically unplayable because it never recenters the rider. The analog stick returns the rider to neutral when it's not being touched.
I'm here cause I'm forced to spent soo much time in the arcades in Shenmue and can't get past half the track. Lol
Quanti ricordi....
real master.
Gameplay looks very smooth thanks to 60fps.
Brilliant playing. You make it look all too easy.
I played this at the game preserve!
What's the title of the Soundtrack? I'd like to see if either they have done a metal cover out of it
The intro music is like exactly the same as After Burner !
Nothing like After Burner's music.
? Have you heard the menu music for After Burner 1 & 2?
You said the intro music to Hang-On sounds exactly like the intro music to Afterburner.
Since I've played both games from when they appeared in arcades, I can say no they don't.
Your telling me the first few seconds to this video sound nothing like this /watch?v=MxLM25-qNJs I'm sorry but it's pretty much the same key, same first chords, same rhythm.
That has never been the intro/attract music for Afterburner 1 or 2, that is from another part of the game.
Lotsa quarters

didn't the arcade version have the bike you sat on?
Yes, if you are referring to the ride-on cabinet version. There were also two traditional upright cabinet versions: one where you stand (most common), and another with a chair to sit down in.
3:32 as far as I can remember, if you hit at least 1 "Hang-On" letter on the left, you'll get rewarded extra time, of up to 10 seconds!
Yep! You'll get an extra 20 seconds if you hit the "G"!
This game looks great on sitting arcade cabinet or the stand up arcade,its cost controversy in Japan of involving female players on the bike cabinet,i like the arcade cabinet of After Burner II and Galaxy Force II looks great too
Is there also a perfect port on a home console of this game..?
You can play it inside many of the Yakuza games and also on Shenmue I & II.
Dobuita Arcade in "Shenmue"!
I be wasting all my money on shenmue playing this game it’s very addictive lol
im wondering what that one is with the dolphin in a coat....probably just an image >_>
I saw a video showing it here on TH-cam, must've been a different version
I wish this franchise would come back?! But after the Dreamcast version..oh well..
In questo video c'è un bug....nn si vede la polvere bianca quando piega....
I can't tell if the sprites are being scaled or if the game is using many different sprites of different sizes.
Sprite scaling was the big thing with SEGA's arcade hardware at the time.
I've heard of this in Sonic Riders
Looks like maybe an emulator version with smoothed out graphics. Maybe..
The thing that really made me resent Hang On was all the Star Rider machines got converted to it :( And most of those Star Rider boards and laserdiscs were probably junked. That masterpiece, for this shit.
Loved this game but I was useless at it!
The it looks like that riders' knees are really tough...........
nO-gnaH = Hang-On written in backwords on the title XD
Back when Cigarette ads were ok in video games.
People who use arcades, do you see a high score as an incentive to play a arcade game?
bit harsh?
I'm sure nobody will see that as any sort of a huge loss ;-)
Good bye, and close the door on your way out.

yeah but its easier to go for the "first" ones i guess, cant go after them all, youd be there forever
It's hard to finish it 😱
So, how many competitors were in this race?
I counted 164.
it's like outrun
You only play one course?
Outrun but its a bike race
I'm racing 🏍️
