    I remember my grandma buying me this game in the summer of ‘91. The happiest eight year old kid in the world at that time. So many wonderful childhood memories come my mind when seeing this video. Awesome upload.

    I literally said "NEW JERSEY!!!" at the same time as Mark. LOL

    I got this game back in 1991 and love it. I don't know why everybody hates this game and calls it an unnecessary sequel.

    That's my favorite part of the game the roll through! I never knew there was a rad racer 2 I came home from jail couldn't wait to get to my NES but there was an empty spot on top of the old TV it was just a square where the console used to be Mom sold it lol

    The songs in this game are pretty good, but the REAL way to play Rad Racer II is by picking "Silence" and putting on your own music in the background, that way you can rock out to some Eurobeat while driving in 8 bits!
    Great game! I love just how smooth it runs, and also the parallax scrolling, you just gotta love the parallax scrolling!

      Eurodance>Eurobeat

    • @matthewrivera5923
      @matthewrivera5923 Před rokem +1

      racing with Super Eurobeat music playing in the background is exactly what you can do while playing an Initial D arcade game!

    I hate that it cannot be played on a modded nes classic edition. It just shows bugged scrambled screens during gameplay. Anyone know any suggestions?

    I got this game awhile back, picked it up with Dragon warrior 2 because I needed free shipping on amazon. its a nice little sequel

  • @ricardomauricioaraya7625

    I had this game back in the day, so many hours spent to only get to the 3rd stage... when I got it to work....

    Looks great; I'm only fair at the first game (I think I've only made it as far as the 4th background), but I sure like, so I'd probably enjoy this one as well.

    You can do a power start if you don't want to lose after crashing.

  • @dstarr3
    @dstarr3 Před 7 lety +7

    Even with emulation and save states, I still can't beat this game. This is definitely before game devs realized they didn't need to make console games aa hard as arcade games because there were no quarters to munch at home.

    • @cm4scijust2good39
      @cm4scijust2good39 Před 7 lety

      +Turrican4D The sequel is about the same difficulty as the first, but the later stages are more hellish in 2.

    • @gamerguy425
      @gamerguy425 Před 7 lety

      in the arcades it was to much quarters, in early home console ports it was to artifically pad out the length of the game. you could plow through most NES games in less than an hour or far less if you know exactly what to do when.

  • @Sinn0100
    @Sinn0100 Před 3 lety

    Do I detect a hint of parallax scrolling in the backgrounds? It appears that I do and that's pretty neat on an Nes. Wait...Rad Racer was made by Square?! I don't remember that at all. I thought they were nearly out of business before taking a last ditch effort of Final Fantasy as everything else had failed at the market place? Rad Racer 1 and 2 sold very well and throws that story inyo question.

  • @MrSilksoul
    @MrSilksoul Před rokem

    As small as this may seem, the lack of driving noises bothered me. How hard is it to put in the engine sound? They did it for Rad Racer 1. Just lazy.

  • @xyanide1986
    @xyanide1986 Před 7 lety

    Just about every hidden gem on the NES has not been released in PAL format. We are so fucked in Europe I will probably buy a 50-60Hz AC-AC converter and just run a full NTSC TV setup.

  • @superdemonboy
    @superdemonboy Před 4 lety

    Unpopular opinion, but I recall really not caring for this sequel.
    Like the car got too tiny and the controls aren't as tight. Also, a lot of the stages are pretty similar and yet less impressive.

      Hohum I don't review games at all, so by your logic I hate all videogames. Also crazy idea when you have hundreds upon hundreds of games to cover, some systems get neglected. (Ps he reviewed Speed Racer on the Snes like twoish weeks ago)

      @Horzuhammer Před 7 lety +1

      He has indeed, but he's done a lot more Megadrive/Genesis and Nes/FC -games for example. I can understand why, since the SNES library is kinda lacking for people who are into oldschool arcade action titles.

  • @pliniomsann
    @pliniomsann Před rokem

    I don’t like this dude’s reviews because won’t focus on the technical aspects. For example no comparisons with the previous game , which is a much better experience… also no mention to the turbo or the horrible acceleration
