Designed by Square in 1987, Rad Racer does everything to try and live up to its name, even trying to incorporate 3-D way before it blew up in popularity.
At the car selection screen, the player can pick one of two cars: a Ferrari 328 or an F1 racing machine, both drive exactly the same though, just personal preference on what you want to drive. Once you pick your car the racing begins. There are eight courses in the game that get progressively harder and all have the option to be played in 3-D.
Programmed by Nasir Gebelli, designed and supervised by Hironobu Sakaguchi, and music by Nobuo Uematsu, these three who contributed similar roles to the final fantasy series, surprisingly are responsible for making Rad Racer an enjoyable game for the NES.
Now here is my non successful attempt at Rad Racer.
