Amazing how our experiences differ, the most played Racing game for me on the Saturn is Sonic R, and as a 11yo kid, I mastered the game and courses, I can still play it just as well today. With that said, I know it's not for everyone as it's quite unique in its approach and handling, but those who actually put the time into it, had quite a lot of fun. Man, your daughter is charming and amazing how she looks like you!

Having now modded my 1up i`v been dabbling in Saturn and Dreamcast racing games that i just could`nt afford back in the day, so thanks for the heads up on some of those games. I really wish Sega Rally would have made it to the Dreamcast with better graphics as Sega Rally 2 just not quite the same, something feels off, maybe car dynamics, handling, gaphics, not quite sure. But yer Sega Rally No1 only beaten handling wise (My opinion anyway) Was Screamer 2/Screamer Rally on pc and played both to death to the point the cd stopped working.

A lot of it is because it doesn't stand out. Graphically impressive games were a big deal back then, so Virtua Racing looking like its MegaDrive counterpart just slightly souped up wasn't winning anyone's favour. Especially when it was competing with giants in the racing genre like SEGA Rally, Gran Turismo, and Ridge Racer. The 32X is the more impressive version due to the limitations of the 32X and how far it pushed them, with the 32X being as powerful as the Atari Jaguar, and the Saturn being a mid-point between the PlayStation and Nintendo 64.

Sega Touring Car is totally rubbish. Poor control, Poor framerate, Poor resolution, Poor texture. I tried to play Daytona CE with a racing wheel called "Power Wheel", which can also use in N64, PS1 and SS. I found that the control is pretty well and similar to Arcade!! However, this racing wheel cannot control other racing game well. Beside Shutokou Battle 97, there is Touge King of Spirits 2 which got very good graphic.

i disagree. I absolutely think of racing games when I think of the Saturn. More than either the PS1 or N64. To me, the Saturn was the home of arcade games, and that includes both fighting games and racing as well. I'd definitely think of racing games far sooner than I'd think RPGs. Also Sonic R is excellent, damn it. :P

I really enjoyed this video. I was researching Saturn racing games and this was the one of the first options to come up on Google. You've got a new subscriber. A couple of things I'd like to add: 1) As other commenters have written, "NASCAR '98" is pretty cool. I left a comment elsewhere talking about the PS1 version because I've yet to play the Saturn version. I assume they're mostly similar and if so, it'll be a winner. 2) If you liked "The Need For Speed" then you'll like "Overdrivin' GT-R" too. It was a Japanese localization of the original NFS and is the only console version of that game to have analog steering, throttle, and brakes thanks to supporting the Saturn's 3D Pad. It was sponsored by Nissan Motor Co. instead of Road & Track Magazine so the car roster is entirely different. The slower vintage cars are an absolute joy to drive with that physics engine. I keep Yaba Sanshiro Saturn emulator and that game installed on my phone because it still brings me joy to pick up and play.

I've never played the Saturn version of "NASCAR '98"; but, I've got a lot of mileage in the PlayStation version. The PlayStation version is a great game. I may be wrong; but, it feels like a much improved sequel to the stock car side of "Andretti Racing". The intro has Molly Hatchet blasting "Flirtin' With Disaster". The graphics are solid and there's a lot of tracks (a mix of real life and reasonably believable fantasy courses - no Daytona though, because Sega had the exclusive rights at the time. There were two minor annoyances; 1) draw distance wasn't the best, and 2) the parts of the driver visible in the cockpit view looks more like a cat than a human. I checked out some box art of the Saturn version and the cat person is missing. Instead cockpit view is shown to have been handled more like the original "Need For Speed". There's two versions of "NASCAR '98" for the PS1; the original and the Collector's Edition (CE). The CE removed one of the fantasy tracks and replaced it with the real life home of the Southern 500, Darlington. I think it also added a Richard Petty themed car as well. I don't think Saturn got the CE version, sadly. If it did then it was super rare because I couldn't find any available for sale on eBay.
@gamernaut88649 ай бұрын
Yeah the Saturn never did get a CE. The nice thing about the Saturn version is that the car models don't look horizontally stretched like the PS1 version. I think you may be right about 98 being an improved version of Andretti Racing. I bet EA was using upgraded versions of the same engine for many of their mid to late 90's stock car racers. I remember EA's Nascar Road Racing for the PC in 1999 also having a "Andretti Racing" look to it as well. "Flirtin With Disaster" was a huge southern rock hit in its day! I was glad to hear it in the 98 soundtrack. I think the 80s rock band Y&T had their hit "Mean Streak" on the soundtrack as well. Another favorite of mine. I wish EA would care enough to make a modern stock car racer with all the great fantasy tracks from every Nascar game they ever had -- starting in the 90s. Like a Road Racing Ultimate Edition 2024. That would make for an epic "rubbin' is racing" masterpiece.@@mattdavis9601
