I actually found a cabinet in the wild, Events Cinema Liverpool for anyone in Sydney.
I played through each race once just for a muck around and again on beginner just to see if I had improved at all.
On surface it controls like Daytona USA with auto and manual modes, with the latter having 4 gear stick shift.
What surprised me was the nuanced drift necessary for taking corners and maintaining speed, tricky to manuever but very satisfying to pull off.
Also graphically I think it holds up, I love the Sonic/Saturn iconography on the first stage.
It is AM2 at its 90’s peak, not surprising we haven’t seen a port given the licenses for a since dissolved racing series.

I’m definitely partial because this is one of my absolute favourites. There’s something about the style of character action game with simple button mashing, dodging and motion controls that I genuinely love and can get behind. The story is bizarre and constantly throwing out curveballs, the boss fights interesting and memorable. There’s some lulls inbetween fights and playing this on a blank file was a little monotonous, getting Gold for every mission seemed like a decent idea when grinding was on the table. I still can’t get my head around the challenge missions where 1 hit means death.
Very fun run and gun, the key is using your arsenal and jumping to avoid obstacles. Some objectives to progress weren’t immediately obvious to me but hey it’s one of the first for me. Stunning pixel art and animations which slows down at times but is suitable for avoiding projectiles or taking in the screen. Beaten on coop with infinite credits on Switch Arcade Archives. Will come back to try and better my score.
