Game Details:

Developed by Square in 1987, "Rad Racer" is an early 3D racing game representative on the NES platform. Players can choose from two sports cars (Ferrari 328 or F1 racing car) and race through cities and scenic backgrounds across the United States. The game uses "pseudo-3D" visual techniques to bring a strong sense of speed. Each stage is time-limited and requires reaching checkpoints within the time to continue the race. The game supports 3D glasses mode and is one of the few NES games to offer this feature.


Editor's Recommendation:

If you like a pure sense of speed and classic arcade style, then "Rad Racer" is definitely not to be missed. The game has a fast pace, simple controls but is challenging, and is a rare racing masterpiece on the FC platform. Especially the switching of different scenes such as night and mountain roads, making people feel like they are really driving at high speed. Recommended for players who like retro racing games!


Game Guide:

  • Staying in the center of the track can minimize deceleration and drift in corners.
  • Maintain high speed, but ease off the throttle before turning to prevent crashing off the track.
  • When encountering obstacles or vehicles, try to anticipate their movement direction and change lanes in advance.
  • Switching between first-person and third-person perspectives in the game can improve the driving experience.
  • Pay attention to the checkpoint timer and accelerate when the red line indicates that time is running out.
  • Beginners can choose the F1 racing car, which has more stable control and is suitable for beginners to practice.
