en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out_Run
Out Run (アウト ラン?) is an arcade game released by Sega in 1986. It was designed by Yu Suzuki and developed by Sega AM2. The game was a critical and commercial success, becoming one of the best-selling video games of its time and winning the Golden Joystick Award for Game of the Year. It is notable for its innovative hardware (including a moving cabinet), pioneering graphics and music, innovative features such as offering the player choices in both soundtrack and non-linear routes, and its strong theme of luxury and relaxation. In retrospective interviews, Yu Suzuki has classified Out Run not as a racing game, but as a "driving" game.
Gameplay
Out Run is a 3D third-person racing game. The player controls a car, a Ferrari Testarossa, from a rear third-person perspective. The player must race to the end of each stage as fast as possible against a time limit while avoiding traffic. At the end of each stage, the player is presented with a fork in the road where the player must choose one of two stages. The left route presents an easier stage, while the right offers a greater challenge. Passing through checkpoints awards the player with extra time. Once the timer reaches zero or the player completes the race, the game ends. In addition to the nonlinear gameplay, Out Run also offered the choice of music to listen to while driving, represented as radio stations.

Wow, the gameboy advance version is quite good.
Yep I'm gonna download it onto my hacked psp. Now.
Simo Thats like to use a Sega Nomad to play Gameboy games xD
What i was thinking, how good the Gameboy Advance version looks.
I couldn't agree with you more
The OutRun arcade sprite scrolling is probably the best ever programmed and still outstanding to see! Gotta love it! That feature gives to the gameplay an hyper sense of speed and yet precise tridimensionality and definitely represents the magic of the game itself! Who had need polygons with such 3D illusionistic perfection?
Sega Saturn outrun is arcade perfect, just like space harrier on the Saturn.

Sorry about the occasional skips in the sound. It has something to do with the write time between The capture & the hard drive. Camtasia doesn't seem to like SSD Drives.
Outrun on the Sega Saturn is the best version.It actually runs at 60 frames per second instead of the arcade's 30.The GBA version is a pretty close port as well.
You may also noticed that the car in the Dreamcast version looks different.That's because Sega lost the rights to use the Testarossa variant,so the car looks completely different in it.
OutRun 2006 is also a fantastic game which everyone should play.
37:40 holy fuck they got knocked out of the car on that accident!
Filipe1020 I guess instead the "get ready" warning, the guy should've been more explicit. "Fasten your seatbelts, damn it"!
Rodrigo Horta The "Get ready"Warning is in i think every Sega arcade.
Don't know how many people picked up on this - in the Amiga version, the driver switches sides depending on whether you're turning left or right!
And he looks like Peter Griffin from behind.
Great observation. Didn't notice it.
Eric Ferrier Ha ha good spots... especially the Peter Griffin lookalike!
The sound track should be nothing but Griffin going "hehehehehehehehehe....", until he crashes and goes "awwwww."
But this game existed before Family Guy, so...
Sega Dreamcast was the closest to the arcade version.
While this video doesn't show it, the Saturn version is actually the best port. The Saturn port like the Dreamcast version will run at 30fps just like the original Arcade version. However it also has a mode in the options to make the game run at 60fps making it even better than the Arcade version. The original Japanese Release has even more bonuses than the US release as it has the original music and a remixed soundtrack.
+Monty Burns The car was changed, so nope
It used to boggle my mind why the title screen on the ST version looked way better than the actual gameplay that it immediately cut into, like it was mocking you with a higher quality version of what you actually got.
Agreed !
Hah, the exact same on Amiga. Still remember vividly the loading screen moment after c64 version. I was like "wow, is it going to look this good". Then actually when game launched I was like "what the fuck? Is this somekind of joke?" I was even worse as I really enjoyed c64 version as it felt superior in every way.
About five years ago I actually bought a Saturn and steering wheel just to play Outrun again. It fxxxing rocks! lol
The staying power of the original arcade version was amazing. It continued to be found at local pizzerias, laundromats, take out places well into the 90s. It was a easy game to pick up i think that is one of the main reasons. Just race to point a to put b no adversaries.
+Luis Coqui I'm waiting for the movie
3089280288 lol right.
+3089280288 i hope it didn't go "Turbo" #WreckItRalph
That's because the original Outrun is the best driving game of all time. If I had the space and a few grand burning a hole in my market, I'd absolutely buy the sit down arcade cabinet without a moment's hesitation.
Outrun is absolutely timeless.
+HicksZ34 - Some great choices! :-) If I could have a room full of arcade machines, I'd choose Turbo, Super Harrier, Afterburner, Golden Axe, Outrun, Super Monaco GP, Ridge Racer, Sega Rally, Sega Rally 2, & Virtua Tennis.
My favorite versions of classic OutRun are the Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast and PS2 versions.
Another nice video. I'd like to point out though, that OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast was also released on the PSP and Xbox.
Given this video slide into the "coast to coast" versions, I'll add this. I had Outrun 2 Coast to Coast on PS3 and then spied it in arcade version at the Cinema lobby. I hopped on and it was IDENTICAL to the PS3 version. Popped in my $2 and on the first attempt, completed all the stages (easy route) with no effort, while I kid sat behind me with his jaw on the floor as I drifted each corner to completion. It was a good day :)
great memories of this game (arcade version).. incredible for its time -1986
Man. Back in the 1980s and even the 1990s, games were ported to a massive array of consoles. Now, all we have are Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, and Valve. The ports have little-to-no differences now as opposed to back then.
Guess it's a testament to the quality of Outrun music, when even the PC speaker version of Magical Sound Shower sounds good.
The arcade version and OutRun 2 for the original Xbox are the best OutRun games.
True, although "OutRun 2006 Coast 2 Coast" for the PC is very nice too. 1080p, 60fps, and it has both the OutRun 2 and OutRun 2006 courses.
The only problems with it are that it doesn't play nice with Xinput controllers (i.e. Xbox 360 pad) and (worse) they don't sell it anymore, due to the expired Ferrari license problem that caused all of the Sumo Digital OutRun games (OutRun 2 / 2006 / Online Arcade) to disappear from digital storefronts. Which is a real shame for OutRun fans who don't already own them.
Luckily, all except Online Arcade (which was really just 2006 minus the OutRun 2 courses anyway) had physical disc releases, so determined folks will always be able to hunt down a legit copy :)
Not Know As King Binbogami.
Outrun 2 is considered a SEQUEL, and sequels cannot make a list for comparison to an original game
Missed xbox live arcade version!! Cool video anyway!!
I didn't even know the game was ported to the Dreamcast, the most authentic version of the game to me is the Sega Saturn port which I own the import version of. Very fun game one of my favorites.
Cool compare video :D
thanks ! :D
Thanks ! :D
Notice how the Ferrari logo flips direction depending on which way the car is facing in the arcade version! I wonder if it's being hardware flipped or the graphics artists missed that.
Classic game with great music =)
This little detail always annoyed me to no end, I was about to post about it!
*****
it looks like a little stick man leaning backwords with his arm up next to a big Y, a : & a ! ... 0_0
Great, here comes the ocd....I noticed a few of them did that:-p
I'll be the nerd. Back in the days of limited bytes, this was done to save precious bytes and speed up the game. The reason the horse "flips" is because the game is using the same car sprite twice (left turn and right turn) but flipping it. Let's say there are 3 degree's of "tightness" to the turn animation. To turn without a flipping horse (lol) would require 7 sprites (including dead straight driving). By accepting a flipping horse, the sprite count is reduced to 4.
Now I'm not up on how much data a single coloured pixel takes up, so I'm going to guess, based on hex code, that it's at lease 6 bytes per pixel. The original car sprite was 72x42 pixels (3024) so we may be talking at least 18KB per sprite. Possibly more. So a save in my example above of a precious 54KB (3 sprites) if not more. Keep in mind, the arcade unit had 236KB of graphics memory (wiki), you can see why every byte mattered back then.
The Mega Drive port has the horse "fixed".
Well I mean the Amstrad is quite obviously the winner here. With it's thrilling, soulful, passionate, groovy, studio quality music that simply provides you with an unbeatable nostalgic experience of pure goodness! Superior to the Arcade version for sure.
One of my favourite games ever - and this video is a great comparison of a lot of the ports! Was exposed to the C64 port myself the most as this was the version that we owned back in the day. Of course the Arcade port was the most amazing one - especially the sit down cabinet! Still love that cab. The Outrun2 2006 edition surpassed the original in my opinion but both are excellent games!
知らないハードがたくさんあって勉強になりました。
私も数本持っていましたが個人的にはセガサターン板辺りから完全移植と呼んで良いレベルであったように記憶しています。PS2版SEGA AGES 2500は似て非なるモノでしたね、2006は今でもちょくちょく遊んでいます。
1986年のアーケード版から実に３０年近く経過しているのにもかかわらずいまだにこのシリーズがゲーマーを惹き付ける理由は、ドライブの楽しさの何たるかを分析し、それをゲームの中で表現しきった「鈴木裕」の偉大さに尽きると思います。
The music playing on that Master System version reminds me a little of the music from Space Harrier.
The same guy did the music on both games
I was making a DOS game for a competition recently, and after dealing with the limitations of the platform, it got me thinking about racing games like Outrun and how they managed to update the screen fast enough to handle the turns and the scenery objects along the side of the road. It always leaves you impressed with what the devs were capable of doing on hardware not meant for gaming.
That's right is amazing how with all the hardware limitation they found a way to make a race game.
Loving the music on the DOS version! :)
-- beep boop boop.. boo.. beep boop.. boop ... boop ..boop.. boo. boop .. beee. beee. boop boop.
Gaming History Source
na, it wasn't THAT good!
To play on-the-go the GBA version is just fantastic!
Even better than the PC Engine port?
Was the Cannonball Enhanced OutRun engine out at the time you made this video? It requires the MAME ROM but it does a damn good job of running OutRun on a RetroPie (be interested to know how it compares to MAME though)
Also, does the DOS version only support PC Speaker? I've noticed you only use PC Speaker sound when you could have used AdLib, SoundBlaster or even PCjr/Tandy sound.
SEGA is eternal for Brazilians! Sonic and Out Run are eternal for Brazilians!
3D Out Run,has the best Out Run sountrack.
The Amstrad CPC version is just sad :-(
They all are, only the c64 is great considering it has calculator hardware.
But that's wrong you absolute idiot! The C64 may look good, but it has no branching paths and seems to control horribly. There are much better ports, like the Master System and Game Gear versions. Also the C64 didn't have calculator hardware. The 6502 processor and SID chip were computer hardware. The 6502 was actually pretty common, being in a lot of computers and game consoles. Learn to do your research, you imbecile.
The Amstrad was bad because most programmers didn't know how to program it properly.
i have a genesis;and a ps 2 slim hooked up together with my tv;and i did'nt know that outrun was available for the genesis. i now will try to find a copy.
Love it. First one I saw outside of the arcade version was on the ST. Still have fond memories to this day.
PERFECT VIDEO THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
PLEASE CORRECT THE TIME :
12. Sega Master System ( Original ) 21:16
done ! Thanks ! :)
How could you forget the FM sound for the master system original!!!
The best driving game ever!
The MS-DOS version is very funny, especially the sound. The worst is the Amstrad version. No sound during the game. I owned one back at the time, I was so excited to buy and receive my game, 15 days of waiting. Then launching it and seeing this piece of shit. The conversion is laughable. Same on Atari and Amiga.
On Sega Saturn this is the exact version and on DreamCast very very close.
Thank you very much for this great video comparaison.
the dos music was...wow..
Dos version, was actually one of the best conversion of Outrun.
The sound emulated in this video, is "internal speaker" ... "Sound blaster" was consistently better.
By the way the game is really good and playable.
C64 version is for me the best, colours are kinda ugly, but i prefer than console versions ( for consoles they could do much better )
You missed the version included with outrun 2, which is an exact port of the arcade original. And you missed outrun 2 itself.
Got the Speccy version for one Christmas. You had to mess around rewinding and pressing play on the tape recorder for every stage, i think i played it twice. Great times though.
the sega mega drive was my favorite
Cool Gaming It was good. But my fave was the saturn version.
i like to watch and play the retro games of nes,snes, megadrive
I also want to make some retro video's but now im busy with wiiu and ps3 games
Cool Gaming I also love it! It's one of the best ports & has a cool exclusive music called Step on Beat (& it also has a crazy Hyper mode but you have to enter a code to unlock it).
+Cool Gaming "Out Run" on the Mega Drive was where I honed my driving skills, but it's so funny to look at it now, when (back then) that was the height of home tech and we swore it was identical to the arcade. (Turns out, the Saturn and Dreamcast actually had the exact arcade version.)
Best versions in order.
1. Arcade
2. Saturn
3. Dreamcast
4.Genesis/Mega Drive
5. PC Engine
6. GBA
7. Master System (Original)
8. PS2 (Sega Arcade Gallery)
9. Master System (3D)
10. Game Gear
11. Commodore 64
12. Atari St
13. MSX 2
14. DOS
15. MSX
16. ZX Spectrum
17. Amstrad
saturn can run 60fps, arcade only 30. so your order is incorrect :p
Asside from the arcade version i have to say that the master system version played a lot better than the others that were available at the time, obviously other machines came along later with better versions :)
Yeah the Master System did hold out well. Only bummer was no engine noise. But still a decent port for it's time.
What about the Sega Master System II version? I have it laying in my storage with the console. It was my childhood game together with Alex The Kidd. Cant remember when it was released, but i got it in 1994.
You should have set up Tandy sound for Outrun on DOS. It's SUCH an improvement.
The C-64 is absolutely shocking, where is the ocean at the start ?? surely they could of thrown in some blue to try and represent water or a beach. ohh yeah the girl is not blonde here.
Genesis/Mega Drive is by far the cleanest looking conversion out of any early model system.
At least it beats the Amiga version: HORRIBLE conversion
Gameplay is what matters. A few, unimportant cosmetic issues due to a machines hardware restrictions means absolutely nothing.
Fact of the matter is the c64 version plays very well. Good game.
The C64 version is far from the worst, to be fair. And the music's pretty great.
The best version is the Sega Saturn. There's an option called SMOOTH which makes the game run at 60fps.
Also, After Burner for Saturn by default runs at 60fps. I wonder if Space Harrier runs at 60fps........
My favourite version is still 2006 Coast 2 Coast, as much as I love the original Outrun, that remake is just so much fun.
Also, why not play both versions of outrun 2 and 2006 on both the ps2 and xbox?
Imagine if arcade games were still this much better than what people had at home.
Arcade graphics would look like real life or close.
Great game, I remember that the c64 version had an extra casette with the arcade music on it. (Even though the c64 sid music version is great)
The PC Engine port is failing/lacking big time:
- lower resolution meaning less detailed and stretched graphics (a good example is the "horse" supposed to be the Ferrari logo)
- not fullscreen with added black bars at the top/bottom of the screen
- no digitized voices
- no side animation of your car when the game starts
- many stages lack essential visual element(s) supposed to *define* these stages such as the ocean @Coconut Beach or the Clouds @Cloudy Mountain...
- no characters animation when you crash (they simply disappear)
- no route indicator
- no parallax scrollings...
Still a decent port but the Mega Drive one is not only more accurate to the arcade original but also adds some extra content such as a 4th selectable music (called Step on Beat) or several difficulty settings included a special hyper mode which means great replay value. The Mega Drive port is my favorite next to the Saturn one!
and the Pc Engine version has no trucks!
+tournication
I haven't spotted this yet but you're right! I just played both versions again and no trucks on PC Engine while they're here on Mega Drive.
Also, but it's more subjective, I much prefer the music on Mega Drive! Some lovely renditions thanx to the great FM sound chip.
The PC Engine port also lacks the Volkswagen Beetle as well as many others things. I totally agree, this version plays well but it's so lacking it can't even compare with the Mega Drive version.
I also agree about the music, the "buzzing" sound of the PC Engine doesn't fit Outrun much while the Mega Drive port has great renditions of the legendary Outrun soundtrack (which is one of my favorite soundtracks of all time!).
😂 Genesis/MD fanboy.😂
A lot of people don't know that Outrun was voted game of the year when it was first release.
Who remembers the red Ferrari moving arcade cabinet? Big part of my childhood memories
At 19:19 the music for Outrun sounds like Space Harrier?
imagin be sound designer for the AMSTRAD version lol.. pippi piipip
I just noticed that the DOS version is running at 3000 cycles. That is 10x faster than the PC machines that existed at that time.
Wow, so it wasn't until the Dreamcast that we got a truly authentic home conversion of the arcade original - one that scaled the graphics smoothly, and ran at a fast frame-rate that didn't make the roadside scenery look like it was going backwards! Gotta love the Dreamcast.
One thing this video is missing is the full horror of that execrable ZX Spectrum version of OutRun... The video here is clearly captured from the 128K version of the game, but most Spectrum owners had to play OutRun in standard 48K form - which not only lacked the music but also could only hold ONE stage in memory. The 128K Spectrum could at least play a recognisable tune and hold all 15 stages in memory, and it's still the worst version here. Now imagine the same version, but minus the music, and having to find each new stage on a cassette tape and load it (taking about a minute) at every single junction choice along the route. Makes even the worst modern game look pretty good, doesn't it? ;)
I agree with everything you say apart from the Dreamcast version was the first truly authentic home conversion. It wasn't as it lacked the original Ferrari Testarossa.
The best 2 home versions are:
- Outrun on Sega Ages on the Sega Saturn which obviously pre-dated it. Arguably this version is even superior to the arcade as it runs at 60 frames per second compared to 30 frames per second in the arcade;
- The unlocked Original Outrun on Outrun 2 on the XBox.
I've played the 48k Spectrum version at a friend's over 25 years ago and it's absolutely fucking execrable. The frame rate was non-existent. I had the Master System version at the time and it was 1,000 X better.
Prior to the Saturn port, the only two versions that came remotely close to the arcade where the Megadrive and PC Engine ports.
The Dreamcast is anything but *authentic*. The framerate is too fast and the they have changed the Testarossa to some other Ferrari(?).
Wow the C64 version is actually quite impressive...
The best home versions of the game were on the Saturn and beyond. The problem is that by the time those came around, the game was nearly 10 years old. If you were a kid when you played Outrun in the arcade, then you were an old man before they finally made an arcade perfect port for the Saturn.
I was surprised to find that in the 1980's the best version of this game was on the Master System or the PC Engine. The Amiga did a good job with the colors, but the game looks most fun to play on the Master System.
Another surprise came from the Sega Genesis. I expected that version to be VERY close to the arcade original and I was sorely disappointed. At the very least the could have included noise from the engine. Even Rad Racer on the NES had engine noise.
What about the Shenmue version? Same as game works vol. 1?
Saturn port of outrun for the win ^_^
Hey guys check out my in depth comparison of all versions of TURBO OUTRUN! We'll see which home ports come out on top?
Turbo Outrun (We compare all versions of the game)
I still don't understand why the Genesis / Megadrive version doesn't have engine noise, I'm sure it could easily have handled it alongside the music...
from this selection I like the Saturn version (never had the console) - dreamcast might be great/even better but due to the terrible livecapture I just could not enjoy the gfx.
thanks for the video - love these comparisons :)
WHEW!
I thought we would NEVER get to the DEFINITIVE "Out Run" BGM -- "Passing Breeze"!
The GBA version was a great rendition, but the fact that we didn't get to hear that one
on the arcade version for this video is CRIMINAL! Just saying.
A big varning for the Amiga & Atari ST versions of this classy Sega game.
Absoluty fantastic, !!!!!!

How is the Sega Ages version on Switch?
played this a lot on maany systems.. all time classic
I think a lot of praise should go to the C64 version, not perfect but sounds great and is fast.
não dá pra fazer um vídeo com os finais desse jogo?
I didn't know there was a Windows version of the game. Cool! :D
There isn't a version of Outrun for Windows, it's on MS-DOS.
Outrun2 has been ported to Windows because DOS is non-existant as a primary operating system.
It will run in DOSBox. MS-DOS games are not a problem. :D
yes but technically it's not a windows game, it's just a workaround.
I'm aware what DOS-box is.
MetalSonicodraco7342
When someone says (or types)
*I am aware...*
it means they have knowledge of something and therefore, does not need the thing explaining.
Hellwyck Sorry I still need to learn some English (I am Mexican so that why sorry)
The Saturn version is a close second only to the arcade.
Sega should have released tons and tond of compilation discs of old Sega arcade games on it. The Saturn was really like a home arcade machine, second only to the Neo Geo.
Imagine if the guy that did the Amstrad's loading screen did the in game graphics too. At least it would have looked nice.
How come Outrun 2006 isn't listed as also on the Xbox. It only makes sense since the arcade game ran on the Xbox compatible Chihiro hardware.
I gotta ask. Was I the only one leaning left or right with each tight turn?
Outrun 2006 was on the original Xbox too, best version!
Really cannot understand why you didn't pick the arrange versions... real instruments?!
Though the Spectrum version ranked low on my list. It still managed to impress the hell out of me with it's music but fell short on graphics & control. This is why the DOS version beat it. !
Do they all share the road layouts?
The version in this video list that is the first that somehow resembles the arcade is the Game Gear i think ...
To be honest, the C64 version actually looks impressive considering its limitations.
It's the earliest one that has listenable music, if you ask me:)
I think they sacrificed detail for speed, while keeping the killer soundtrack!
Definitely agree. I don't get it why it's called bad port .I assume because it lacks in details. But it runs fast, it has good music and good controls. Amiga version had none of those :)
It has the same problem as a lot of these ports do: it doesn't really feel like Outrun. No beach just plain ruins the Outrun experience.
I didn't know they had made a dreamcast version of this game.
The ST and Amiga versions are shamefully weak. (They look like pretty much the same codebase.) Who did those conversions?
+KingKaitain I know right. I had the ZX spectrum version which is arguably the worst version. I was so excited about upgrading to my Amiga, but Outrun on the Amiga was a total let down. It should have been equal to the Arcade version easily.
Stefano Pavone Agreed. I ended up mainly using mine for flight Sims until I upgraded to PC. That day was a shock. "what do you mean it doesn't have joystick ports.... Or a sound card?" good times.
+KingKaitain
Probe are responsible for inflicting the ST and Amiga ports on humanity. I'm not sure they did anything that was actually any good.
+Stefano Pavone I'm yet to see a good Alien/Predator game. I guess Alien Isolation was ok. Would have been heaps better if they'd waited for PS-VR as it suits the game. I think the francises, like Star Wars, have a very expectant fan base (myself included) and so any attempt seems to result in a failure to please.
Actually AVP2 on PC was "ok" as well. Anyway....off topic now lol.
The arcade version used 2 X 68000. How the Amiga should have "easily" beat that with only 1 X 68000 ???
It looks silky smooth on the Saturn. If only the world hadn't gone 3D crazy th Saturn would've had a fighting chance. Look at how it handles 2D. Even better than the Neo Geo
The Saturn version gives me motion sickness when I play it, the raster effect is so good. The Sega Ages Collection is fantastic. It's got the best version of Street Fighter Alpha 2 as well.
Everything 2D on the Dreamcast is what the Saturn should’ve had
Looks like the guys who made the Amstrad port forgot to put some music...
No they didnt forgot, they just put it on another tape :p
I loved this game at the arcade, with the steering wheel that had force back and shake when you you would come off the road, hi and low gears, brake and accelerator pedals, couldn't wait to it came to the home computer, then it did ,I had a C64 , I was shattered, but there was some others systems worse, then I got it on the ps2, redemption.
Were the amstrad/spectrum versions actually on the market? They were sold? for money? I mean, i know many games on these machines had painfully slow frame rate (especially some vectror/3D ones) but these ports run at, what, 4fps? You don't even need a counter, you can actually count the frames. I can only imagine the frustration gamers felt when they saw this thing move (barely).
Also, Outrun 2006 isn't the same game, it's more like a sequel and not a remade version (like the Sega collection on PS2) so i don't think it belongs in this comparison. Other than that, superb video, like always.
1 thing
US Gold...the company that...if they manage to create a port better get far from that port (if you want to laugh at frames...Zaxxon by US Gold for ZX Spectrum)
If you play outrun on a TK95 (Brazilian spec clone), is so much moar enjoyable
マジカルサウンドシャワー音頭が聴ければ僕は満足です。
Time for Turbo Out Run as well? ;)
I was working on that one when My computer crapped out. I lost 6 projects when that happened. I still need to get back to that project.
The music on some of these home computer ports is pretty sweet, I prefer it to the original arcade synth. Also I didn't realise the GBA version was so good, thanks!
The spectrum version gives me wood
gentlemanvanilla When I was about 9, I had turbo outrun for my ZX spectrum +2a and I loved it. Playing it now though. Well, it hasn't aged well.......kinda like me
averagegilo I was being sarcastic.
gentlemanvanilla I knew that, but I was just being social :)
Never understood why there are trees in the middle of the road in this game.
same question here too.
I remember the dos version running faster and smoot at the time, and i played in a small yellow monitor, we couldnt read the score and time at the top
SO....they have this in the 3DS shop, but not the Wii U shop???
