At first I thought "oh, it's better Mach Rider" but no, this game is far more brutal than Mach Rider.
So you gotta ski fast, right? Well tough shit, things are coming at you a mile a minute and the consequences can be dire, a full stop even. Go too slow, other skiers wearing nothing at all, nothing at all will come from behind and pound your skier's ass if he tries to accelerate, flipping you right back out. Go too slow, and you'll miss the strict time requirements to keep going. Oh, and the flags? You better get between them or your skier will slow down, just because. But you have to be precise because the flags are obstacles too. One missed game and it's back to the start. I cleared all the courses on Snowy Hill, the EASY course, and I still had to abuse save states to make it even remotely feasable.
Definitely not a game meant to be played with a modern mindset, you're supposed to just see how far you go and that's it. Unfortunately playing legit will not get you very far.
