Developed and published by Sega in 1987
Developed as a sequel to the original Hang-On, Super Hang-On was released by Sega into arcades some time during 1987. As was typical for the time, a deluxe sit-down cabinet was available in the form of a motorcycle, complete with appropriate controls.
The premise of the game is simple. You must complete a point-to-point race across a set number of stages, avoiding road-side obstacles and other riders while reaching checkpoints before the time limit expires. Unlike OutRun, Super Hang-On's courses are linear, but each difficulty contains a completely unique set of stages so there is some replay value here.
An addition to the sequel is inclusion of a turbo boost that can be activated once the bike reaches it's normal maximum speed of 280 kph. Activating the boost will accelerate the bike to an eye-popping 324 kph, but should be used with extreme caution when entering corners; you'll quickly find yourself skidding off the track and ending up making a very nasty stain on the tarmac.
It's interesting to note that the developers purposely designed the controls so that the bike doesn't begin to corner until the rider shifts his weight to the corresponding side of the bike. This means that 'S' bends can be particularly troublesome to handle because you can't instantly steer left or right; you have to wait for the biker to cycle through a number of animation frames before the effect is felt.
Graphically, Super Hang-On might not look as flashy as OutRun, but it simply cannot be touched for sheer, raw speed. This game moves so quickly that it will leave scorch marks on your retinas and is a testament to the power of the 'Super-Scalar' arcade boards that Sega used to power some of their most iconic games. The main player sprite is crisp, sharp and well drawn; there are multiple frames to the "hang-off" animation when the bike steers and gives a convincing sense of weight to the driving.
As with OutRun, the game allows the player to select one of four different music tracks to accompany their ride. Although the music of a high standard, none of the tunes come anywhere near to being as catchy or memorable as those from it's car-based sibling.
Obviously, you expect a coin-op to be difficult (considering owners want players to keep spending money), but Super Hang-On is whole new kind of tough. Whereas OutRun had roads up to 5 lanes wide, Super Hang-On has a fixed width road of 2 lanes and never deviates from this. The narrower road makes for a considerably tougher game and your reactions will be sorely tested as you try to stay on the road. The more difficult courses also seem to spawn more opponent bikers during the later stages, meaning you'll lost more precious seconds due to collisions and dismounts.
It's this level of difficulty that makes Super Hang-On somewhat unpalatable. Getting dismounted pretty much guarantees that you won't reach the end of the course in time and the sheer concentration needed to play the game will probably leave you feeling a little ragged.
It's worth mentioning that the game has dip switch settings for both game difficulty and the amount of bonus time awarded when reaching a checkpoint. This longplay and review was done using default "Normal" value for both settings.
With it's super-fast graphics and flashy cabinet, Super Hang-On is a visual spectacle that you should try at least once. However, the difficulty level and concentration required to play this makes me question whether it possesses the "just one more go" factor of other titles.

I was surprised they never did anymore Super Hangon games for the Saturn and Dreamcast. Sega sat on so many great IPs for years and it's taken what 35 years to now get them to bring some back officially.
This is 37 years old and still vastly more playable than any Moto GP game- despite such stunning graphics. Sega always delivered perfection on all levels and pushed the limitations of hardware.
MotoGP '06 and MotoGP '07 are still amazing. Espescially Extreme mode is great! I still (2024) play Extreme mode '06 & '07 on xbox 360
No other than Sega could produce souch wonderful racing games & music back in the 80's.
yep, also out run
truly the sega system 16 hardware must have been revolutionary back then, only a couple of years earlier arcade games such as from williams defender and robotron which are excellent games but sega system 16 games a couple of years later must have been incredible to see like the the original space harrier.
Some of them are quite catchy
@@anthonybradley1555 same era but system 16 is different (more basic) to the scaler games like hang on and outrun
O agree
No other modern games give the same speed feeling. And the palette is perfect. This is not nostalgia, it's a fact.
The old guy surprise making everyone faint at the end was it for me. Loved it
The colour swatches in this game are so beautiful... ...such classy art direction.
The best racing game ever this is PURE playability the real gaming. The concept challenge to insert a coin to do better score than others still is very alive.
I went to a yard sale with my dad when I was a little kid (early 90's) and the guy had a Super Hang-on cabinet (with the bike) for sale. He let me free-play it while my dad talked to him. It was awesome.
Sega sure did realize the importance of a high and consistent framerate. This and Daytona USA prove that it's essential.
daytona was wank, and sega touring car
@@anthonywebber8152 What
@@FranciscoFJM daytona on sega saturn and touring car were awful home conversion
@@anthonywebber8152 But not in the arcades thats for sure
Just bought this on the ps3,glad i still had a chance to get it,arcade pureness in it's finest form :)
The music & sound effects were brilliant. Good memories 😌
4 amazing musics 😂
Dude, I almost cry seeing this video. Pure nostalgia.
me to man…me to haha
well said, likewise brother
Even today, "Outride a Crisis" gets my heart pumping
Why is this game so memorable? Two words. Yu Suzuki.
Oh my childhood right here. Wonderful memories.
This was so loud in the arcades! You couldn't hear any other game when someone was playing! Fantastic music!!
The feeling you get after you modify your bike and hit that TURBO on the Genesis. Love this game!
I miss these arcade days... home hardware has become ridiculously powerful but nothing can beat the feeling of riding on that make believe bike.
This also shows how insanely difficult those arcade games were. Absolutely perfect run on the "Beginner" course with maximum speed almost constantly and in the end you have only 4 seconds left...
(to be fair, that's because the person playing didn't use turbo for the first stage)
...and never used the turbo on the beginner course...
*Watches entire video, grabs bike keys, gear up , starts up motorbike and rides the back country roads while jamming to the Super Hang On soundtrack!* :)
A game I fell in love with. loads of fun with the TURBO 🏍️
That turbo is the shit, I finally beat the last track a year ago. On my ps3
Me: “There are seven other racers.”
Game: “There are over 137 other racers.”
My 7-year old self is jealous at this awesome gameplay!
From Atari's Night Driver to this in 11 years. Amazing time to be in the arcades. All the classic were released and all brought something you had never seen before with the advances coming so quickly.
Awesome graphics. Really held up nice. Great time in video game history.
The best arecade motorcycle game ever! Super hang on number 1 forever!!! Very good and very impresse game playing! 👏👏👏
I don't know how such a low-resolution game brought me so much joy
Jessi London Simplicity. Less is more.
Frame Rate, fast Scaling and Music 10:20 !
Low res yes but the fun factor & replay value are off the charts!
There's more to a game's value than resolution.
It was state of the art back in the day
Super Hang-On Longplay (Arcade) [60 FPS]: Hold on to your seat in this blisteringly fast bike racer from Sega.
Read the video description for my review!
Al82: Retrogaming Longplays & Reviews thanks you for super hang on arcade that was cool
I remember playing this when I was about 6 years old. I'm not sure my mom gave me any money but I was probably happy just sitting on the motorcycle and watching the standby screen. I wonder if these are still around.
i was exactly 6 wow ;)
I have seen a restored " Operation Wolf " working cabinet with vibrating gun in a Arcade a few years ago, , So the engineers can fix those, The " Super Hang on ` " Came in two types, Just a handlebar connected to the cabinet and the one you remember with the motorcycle seat, I guess maybe there might be a few about, Probably in a good retro Arcade that specializes in video games
It was as you said exactly. I use to stumble around helping the bike moves by hands hehe
Great question! I wouldn't mind getting back on that motorcycle again
This was a relic back in the days...
I love it..
Man, the framerate on the arcade version is so pristine compared to the Genesis version.
sega made some amazing racing games. i sucked at all of them but outrunners but they were amazing. i liked to watch the attracting for this game since it plays itself.
Hang-On, OutRun, Super Hang-On! A great trio of racing games!
Space Harrier and After Burner II probably deserve a mention somewhere as well.
Don't forget OutRun's sequel, Turbo OutRun!
And of course Power Drift.
Thanks to Yu Suzuki! All great games on your list.
N😊ot forget Enduro Racer (1985)
Super Monaco GP, OutRun and Super Hang-On.
The holy trinity of racing games.
Music and scenarios of this fast video game were simply fabulous.
Man what a beautiful run. If that was me I'd be crashing into the signs and flipping over lol.
Even now looks good!
Impresionante partida, impresionante juego que me dio horas de diversión en mi inolvidable Sega Mega Drive, mi admiración hacia ti amigo jamás vi nadie jugar una partida apabullante como esta, gracias.
30 years old and still rocks. No need to kill an old man on screen or cut a baby in two with a chainsaw to create an exciting video game.
shinobi was epic too
Where can I purchase this baby chainsaw game?
@@dalestrommusic You better buy this one.
the fuck you playing in which you need to saw babies in half?
But those are pretty cool too
You can’t lose when Winning Run is playing, it’s been proven by both Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.
Watch my new Super Hang-On longplay here: th-cam.com/video/OB47A-LeE_U/w-d-xo.html
The soundtrack is amazing.
Weekends at the mall playing these video games the arcades were always packed specially in the winter, pizza and soda at the pizza parlor at the mall. Omg I’m crying
This was one of my fav games to play
As a kid, I always liked racing games, and one of the biggest reasons was the soundtrack to the games, giving us fantastic music. Super Hang-On is a definitive example of that (Power Drift also fits the criteria).
めちゃめちゃ懐かしい❗
今から30年前位に良くやってたな➰
完走できなかったけど
At this time, the OST of the Sega Racing game was crazy. Especially Hang-On and Out Run.
not only OST was th most crazy, but the biker who never hit an obstacle!!? at times, used to spent time and money for finishing one mile stone, and even, at the end, we wanted to watch the progress map
This is very hypnotic for some reason.
Amazing run , good player , hello from germany.
You're an incredible player, I was stuck on my chair watching this :-)
And kudos to Sega for the humorous nod to Metroid at the very end of the game! Well worth watching 😂😂😂
i just recently bought a 3ds xl and saw that sega have released 3d versions of this,outrun and space harrier amongst other games. it goes without saying that i will be buying them as soon as i have the cash as i love the arcade versions. great times playing them :-)
Back in the 80ties, they were not good in making the world a better place, but they were great in letting the world be as she is.
so the biker was nothing but a old man who won.
genius idea for an ending
He didn't won, there were other racers in front
In the Genesis version ("Mega Drive" here in Europe), the ending is different: a woman approaches the rider, presumably to kiss him, but she walks away awkwardly when the rider pulls off her helmet, and is shown to actually be a woman.
@@cesar_onada yeah this is what i thought, with long black hair. Is this video the arcade version?
@@cesar_onada
The same old geezer that was the biker in the arcade version also appears in the Genesis/Mega Drive port, seen applauding next to the woman biker during that ending cutscene. (Perhaps she’s a relative of the ol’ fella, who knows?)
The ending plot twist was awesome
Sega will forever be my favorite arcade company as well as creators of my favorite blue mascot
You played that a treat bet the eyes were burning.like the ending when the guy takes his helmet off and it's an old man smoking a pipe nice touch :)
+paddy oconnor Yeah that ending is really good :) Also definitely one of the toughest games I've played recently.
This dude was gettin it! He makes this old title still grip you in your seat.😆👍
Omg, this was one of my favorite arcade games growing up..this and OutRun!
musical sound shower : ) : ) : )
The 60 fps makes me it look almost like a game that people might still want to play in arcades.. super Smoooooth
the arcade machine with the bikes was amazing, loved that as a kid. I sucked at the game but being on a bike was awesome :P
Namco's Suzuka 8 Hours is the cousin of Sega's Super Hang-On.
Their motorcycle based arcade game had a product placement for the extremely popular Coca-Cola soft drink brand.
It has been released for the Super NES game console a few months later.
おはよーございます😊
すごーい😳ライダーの顔初めて見れました👍
👏👏👏👏👏
My local chippie had this back in 80s, as a kid I play this with any spare cash I was given. The music takes me back to thst kid.
What an amazing looking and sounding game for 1987. I remember it was an experience to play at the arcade with the bike and you really felt like you were riding a real crotch rocket. Great fun but a real quarter muncher!
One of my favorite arcade games
今のハードウェアはすごいけれど、物珍しさという点においては過去の衝撃に勝ることが出来ない！それくらいセガのゲームは衝撃的だった！
Este juego junto al Outrun lo jugaba de chico. Cuando la moto hace el drift tiene el mismo sonido que el ferrari del juego Outrun.
Me encantaría un remake bien hecho de éste y OutRunners.
I wish Road Rash had an arcade version that ran this smoothly.
Use an overclocked emulator and you will get exactly the same smooth framerate in all three Road Rash games on Genesis, it feels great! I personally can't go back to original slow as hell performance anymore, emulation improves the experience so much that it almost feels like a miracle lol.
@@dastanbastan9621 How much of an overclock? The Genesis 68000 can be overclocked using an external crystal oscillator, YMMV how far you can get though. 10 MHz is usually easily attainable if a genuine Motorola part is used, but the 3rd party clones are generally less tolerant of overclocking. Signetics 68000s are known to be some of the worst chips when overclocking.
I replaced the stock 68000 in one of my Genesis consoles with a 16 MHz rated ceramic 68000 and I can sometimes get it up to 12 MHz, it just depends on the game. At higher speeds, the rest of the console starts to become the bottleneck.
Omg Road rash, played that game for weeks with my mate on my sega mega drive.... We got to the final race with an insanely fast bike... Got over the finish line first.... The damn cartridge crashed on us.. Lol we were devastated.. I think we were about 23...must have been around 1991
Amo estes jogos! Foi daí que surgiu a expressão: uma negada de trinta. Eita, quantas motos surgem para desafiar o cara. 🤣 rsrsrs
esse jogo e a obra de arte da Sega.
The soundtrack will be forever in my head. ❤❤
Ah, congratulations. Excellent gameplay.
I always loved the music to this game.
I remember playing this on an actual full size motorcycle console at the local arcade hall back in '87.
Excellent the old man smoking a pipe full of weed at the end !!! lol ! I didn't remember.
remembering my junior high school days back in 1988 playing this at a local arcade, which was at a movie theatre
今宵も完璧デゴザル😊
Esse jogo é uma obra de arte. So a Sega mesmo.
Jogaço. Joguei no MegaDrive quando era moleque. Bons tempos…
I use to play the genesis version of it on PC as part of Sega Smash Pack. Now i have the 3DS version.
It's an amazing classic game back then and I really the bring this back as well
This demostrates Sega was the king of arcades, they should continue focusing on that market after Dreamcast failure, but unfortunately they're now a shadow of the company used to be in those times.
lol? But they did
So much of a flashback right now. ... i love the sega genesis /mega drive back then
Hmm no flames from the exhaust when the turbo is engaged, like the genesis/megadrive version!
That plot twist at the end tho... So metroid like xD
hello bro... your channel deserves more views!!! ❤❤❤ I miss the 80s games
I wasn't even alive back then and this is still very nice.
Afterburner. Outrun. Super Hang On. Altered Beast. Golden Axe.
Sega RULED the arcades back in the day.
28:32 That plot twist man
Okay math geeks, help me out here. On the Africa stage here, considering the guy's going a constant 280 km/hr and hits the finish line at 3:41, how the hell many kilometers did he cover just to hit the finish line?
Super Hang-On: aaaah, feels ...
Reminds me of Roadrash but you can't whip the other riders with a chain. I'm looking forward to getting my super hang-on repaired in a few days.. then I'm off to the races trying to get good at a game I never played back in the 80's and is going to look so so good next to my restored afterburner cabinet..🎉😎👍🍕
Lol over 30 years and I JUST NOW noticed there are unlimited enemies xD
😭 Fue mi primer juego en megadrive junto al colums y el italia 90
It is hard to watch that 1st stage with the World Trade Center towers.
This soundtrack is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
And for those who were curious... In the final state he surpassed a total of 705 motorbikes! :D
Even in 2022, Super Hang-On still a timeless legend. Even far better than MotoGP22. By A LOT.
Nice game! Super Hang On! Super Hang Out Run...!
The perfect run. It is more fun playing this on a motorcycle in arcades m
Que saudade dos jogos antigos
This and the arcade version of _OutRun_ were my "can't do" games for the longest time until _Yakuza 6: The Song of Life_ came along (PlayStation Plus Premium membership). I've had moments on the Beginner (Africa) course, where I came close to completing it but running out of time (once on a real Genesis (Genesis 6-PAK), and the arcade version) on the last stage.
I finally cleared the Beginner hurdle in Y6 just last year on a PS5. And yes, I still have yet to clear a game of arcade _OutRun_. I've done _OutRunners_ so many times with automatic and manual transmission (with Speed Buster -- _a lot_ -- I guess I'm addicted to red things in games like these).
The Guy plays very Much!!!
Congratulations!!!!
Thank you retro gaming your friend and fan Damon god bless 🙌 🙏 you lot's of memories 😊.
