Drift Game On Snes!

[Super Jamie]

GUYS!!!

 

i just found a drift game for super nintendo, it's called Drift King Shutokou Battle!!! you can get it on romnation.net and rom-world.com, it's even got Takashi with the green suit! its like mario kart but with a supra, silvia, and some others i didnt look at yet. you must all go and download it now and play it until the wee hours

 

there's also a phat arcade drifter called Side By Side in intencity pacific fair at the moment, stay on the outside of the curve and chuck it, liftoff throttle drift, the cars turn in really well

hmm just d/l the drift battle game...pity i can't read japanese, it might make figuring out the controls & buying stuff easier

 

looks ok though

its actually fun in that horrible crap 80's games kinda way

 

d=accel

c=brake/handbrake?

Nintendo must have been in on the drift scene pretty early in the piece.. :P

its interesting from a historical perspective. i would dare to say that drifting has only caught on majorly over here in the last 18 to 24 months. i can remember when you'd go up the coast and nobody had ever even THOUGHT of risking crashing their silvia into a powerpole, let alone built one that would do it

 

that Side By Side game in pac fair came out around the same time, i think SBS2 was 1996. nice to know how far we are behind japan

 

btw, in shutogou battle, the first option is career mode, the 2nd is vs mode, the 3rd is practice mode, the 4th is controls, and 5th is options. i just race in practice mode. you can redefine the snes9x controls easily enough, if you have a gamepad (or, like me, a psx controller) on your pc
