For the first time, Sega is giving western developers a wack at porting Virtua Racing, the arcade giant's revolutionary polygonal racing game. Time Warner Interactive ported dozens of games before, and had its fair share of titles released on Sega platforms. But this job is different. Chuck Tolman takes on the journey of getting this F1 fury into a Sega Saturn, complete with more than triple the content of the original.

Welcome to the series where I review every single Sega Saturn game released in North America by order of release date. I made a spreadsheet with all the games satakore.com has as American releases, listing them off by order of release date, including sources. All the games are narrowed down to the month they came out in the U.S.

Here’s a BONUS EPISODE you should watch after finishing this long video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mH-qoYt9m6t4i6M

[@Random-yh9tj]

do us a favor and never stop.

[@overkill1473]

The grotesque thing is, that Model 1 Virtua Racing's physics and gameplay mechanics are far more satisfying than contemporary 3D racing games.

[@Random-yh9tj]

They are... What the fuck?!

[@SirJonSoda]

This will be nominated for best documentary this year

[@Bransfiiiield]

This is brilliant and I'm actively angry it doesn't have a bigger audience. Philistines.

[@jonbourgoin182]

I am angry the BOTH of you don't have a larger audience! Bransfield and Pandamonium for LYFE!

[@_.Lumi._]

Thanks for the enjoyable overview of the game. Being the resident racing nut/gear head at Time Warner, I designed the new tracks and extra vehicles trying my best to be true to Mr.Suzuki’s original vision. This was my first 3D project so obviously I still had a lot to learn. Fortunately we came together as a team and ended up with something we were proud of!

[@PandaMoniumReviews]

Thank you so much for watching, AND for helping make this terrific game. Great to hear from another developer! You did an outstanding job at matching the world of Virtua Racing with your new tracks and cars. Check out the bonus episode about Virtua Racing if you get the chance, I found some 90’s footage of the Time Warner offices with the VR arcade machine inside… and Chuck’s old hairdo. If you would like to do an interview sometime, feel free to shoot me an email. My email address is in the about page of this KZbin channel, [e-mail] Thanks again for watching!

[@_.Lumi._]

@@PandaMoniumReviews Thanks for the link to the Bonus Episode. I would love to help you out in any way I can...BTW Chuck's old hairdo did not bother me at all at the time! The suave looking guy at the 5min mark is Jose Erazo, one of the sharpest artists I've ever had the pleasure of working with and that's ME talking about the different tracks. Like Chuck, I don't remember that interview at all! One of my most vivid memories of Chuck is when he proudly presented the LOADING screen to me. Obviously a huge improvement over the place holder stuff we had. The other is coming into the office at 6:30am at seeing Mikey in his office having a snooze after yet another all nighter.

[@andersdenkend]

Dang, it's only Virtua Racing and the videos are already 1 hour in length! Can't wait to watch 18 hours of Burning Rangers!

[@supercap3000]

Virtua racing had a nice long history before saturn though so i get the length time I do want that 18 hour burning rangers video though lol😂

[@ScarletSprites]

As someone who dedicated weeks of their life restoring a Twin and constantly being asked "why didn't you just get Daytona", this video is bliss.

[@hellostove]

Imagine being told by your employer to port a piece of software without the original source code (though they have it!), no easy way to debug, and to hardware that you have no access to. Absolutely bonkers management. Bless the team at Time Warner for even getting this done in the first place!

[@ElectricVikingTube]

I really hope Sega Lord X has seen this series by now. Continue to be absolutely floored by your work.

[@Larry]

Most excellent video Sir, time really flew by watching!!! I found that short cut myself back in the day, thought it was odd you glitched through a wall at the other side. But never knew it was supposed to be removed. Was that Sega's decision to remove short cuts? Also, did anyone at this Time Warner work on the Sega Saturn port of Hard Drivin' as well? That was dumped in Japan.

[@PandaMoniumReviews]

Thanks for the kind words Larry! It means a lot. :) Chuck doesn’t quite remember why the shortcut was cut, but I would bet that was Time Warner’s decision, since Sega was surprisingly hands off on this one. He was also not on the Hard Drivin team. Chuck told me this was his only Saturn game. (I think Sophia scared him off.) I would have to check but I think much of the people on this VR port did not do Hard Drivin.

[@Larry]

@@PandaMoniumReviews No worries, I've subbed to you now, so definitely lookign forward to seeing more of your work! :D Time Warner in Japan were amazing in the 16 bit days, but made some hoorrible ports in the PS1/Saturn days. They tried to make a sequel to Marble Madness, after makign an arcade perfect port for Japan, but TAMA was an absolute dumpster fire. But you need to check out Hard Drivin' to see how badly Virtua Racing could have been there, the saturn VR is an absolutely masterpiece in comparison.

[@Random-yh9tj]

@@Larry Have you ever seen Red Zone for the Genesis? That one was made by Time Warner too.

[@orderofmagnitude-TPATP]

@@Larry are you scarry Larry?

[@iiit6608]

The "Not to be confused with World Series Baseball" reference made me laugh. Great doc, you really put work in on this one.

[@supercap3000]

I caught that too. We are the hardcore fans here 👍👍🤗

[@retractingblinds]

Just a minute in and it's killer. Every new video you do is like a monumental leap over the last.

[@Pimpeaux]

i WAS NOT READY FOR THE STUDLER YTPMV AT THE END

[@Jenovi]

This is super interesting. Funny enough, Sega did the same with Star Wars Arcade on 32X. They had someone else port it and only gave a arcade unit as the source to base their work on.

[@Silanda]

It might have just been an issue with communications and language barriers, but it seems like porting teams from outside of Japan would virtually never get access to the source code of Japanese developed games. At that time at least. The developers of the many western home computer ports of arcade games would virtually never see the source code, which is partially why they'd tend to be less faithful than the Japanese console and computer ports. They'd maybe get an arcade machine to play if they were lucky.

[@AverageMichaelJordans]

03:14 The transition from Race Drivin' and Final Lap 2 to Virtua Racer is something that can't be put onto paper in less than a thousand words. It blows you away, *and the thing's not even started moving yet*

[@filipevalente4937]

I have to give you a lot of praise for how much "in depth" your reviews are getting and how you take the time to interview the original developers! Loved this video! Big fan of your channel!

[@VGMFan20XX]

I'd buy DVD/Blu-Ray seasons of your show bruh. No foolin'. This content is a gold mine for fans of Saturn.

[@drunkensailor112]

Wow!! These are getting better and bigger every time!

[@Cafeman_2D]

Well that was certainly a thorough synopsis of Saturn Virtua Racing! I appreciated the interview and otherwise lost-to-time information. I remember the game being super disappointing at first because it DID NOT feel like the arcade or 32X versions. I still played it but had a poor opinion of it for years. But over the years, I've come to see all its good qualities and content. I like it more than the PS2 60fps version. It isn't an accurate 'port' but it is a fun racing game with lots of content. The 10 laps thing was too much. If only SEGA had better dev/debug tools so they could have harnessed CPU #2. Thanks for the show!

[@onomatopoeia7505]

One hour of one of my favourite games from my childhood? Yes please!

[@GameplayandTalk]

These hour long videos always seem like daunting viewing tasks, but once I start watching the time flies by. Incredible work as always! I'm going to have to attempt to work my way through Grand Prix mode. I fired up the game a few months back, originally not liking it much in the late '90s, and to my surprise I ended up really enjoying myself. Like you said, when you get the hang of the controls and stop focusing on comparing it to other versions, it's a lot of fun.

[@expsharevideogames]

Absolutely LOVED this. So thankful for your channel and all the work you put into it. Interviewing these devs is dream status

This is probably the best Virtua Racing video.

[@robertdanker6193]

The best and most in depth video on Virtua Racing for the Saturn!!! Fantastic!!!👍👍👍👍

[@XJ-0641]

Watching this again, because of course I am. I think the best way to describe Time Warner Interactive's V.R. Virtua Racing is just that: _Time Watner Interactive's_ V.R. Virtua Racing. Its not a port, a copy, its a remodel, and a love letter. It has its issues, sure, but they made a great game

[@XJ-0641]

"Sega?" "Yeah?" "Where's the source code?" "Its right there, in the arcade cabinet" "You were supposed to give us the source code so we could have a launch title release, and accurate physics" "Okay, I'm gonna!" "So go do it!" ... "I think I see the problem" _"OH, DO YA?!"_

[@Mospen]

What a fantastic documentary about V.R. Virtua Racing! I had no idea and really enjoy playing this game still! The Pebble Beach remix at the end is the perfect cherry on top. Very well done. Subbed!

[@RyoHazuki1]

This is absolutely tremendous, and one of the best hours I've spent on KZbin. Brought back memories of playing it in the arcade and being absolutely floored by the graphics, pretty sure I later rented it on the Saturn too. It's not in my collection, but I will have to hunt it down.

[@drunkensailor112]

His documentary skills are unreal. Check his recent virtua cop one

[@MrCalverino]

I just wanna say this channel is the best, the Saturn is my favorite system of all time and it's so cool seeing how nightmarish the development cycles were working with Sega

[@johneygd]

A very interesting history about the saturn port of virtua racing on sega saturn,BUT the greatest part were those online reviews from 1995🤣🤣

[@Bant_Panorama]

At this point I'm just going to watch all of your stuff to count how many times Craig Stadler shows up. Also great video.

[@GamelordNito]

I can't believe this video only has 19k views when it's such high quality it could easily be a TV or streaming documentary. This is incredible work man. People just don't know what they're missing.

[@Sinn0100]

I can't believe this is the first time I'm watching this. I thought I saw everyone of your videos at least once. I have watched several repeatedly because they're that damn good. Take this video for instance, unlike other channels on KZbin that review retro games...you actually interview the actual people responsible for building them and that is incredible! At any rate, you spoke of Sega acting like helicopter parents and I have a few theories on why that is. Time Warner Interactive was a huge company that partnered with Sega in the past on some fairly big things. Like for example Time Warner helped to create The Sega Channel which at the time was huge. Further, I think Sega recognized that Time Warner was a very successful company and could be trusted with their IP. I would also think given how on the back foot Sega was at the time they probably counted Warner's support as vital for success. Considering how close to launch Bug and Ghen War were coupled with the IP's being virtually unknown they wanted full control. I also believe Sega didn't trust Bug's and Ghen War's developers either. I am really curious as to how Sega treated Bug 2's development. Were they just as controlling or did they let loose the reigns a little bit?

[@derekrobbins3574]

That is such a good call on that one song being a Roseanne transition. Fits perfectly. Also I echo basically everyone who says your audience should be bigger. Your work reminds me of Gaming Historians but for a topic not a lot of people on youtube tackle. A billion nintendo videos but a trickle of sega ones. It's high quality stuff. Thanks as I continue to work through your backlog of videos!

[@captainnintendo]

Wow! What an epic treat of a review/documentary/retrospective/interview I love the passion shining through in your content and this one has definitely been the highlight so far :) I honestly had no idea the Saturn port of Virtua Racing had such an interesting history to it. It's what I love so much about gaming. There is always something new to uncover and discover. The only version I've had the pleasure of playing was the Switch port and while it seems to be pretty much arcade-perfect or even arcade superior, I really wish we could have gotten some additional content like new cars or tracks from the 32X or Saturn version. Fantastic video, mate!

[@VirtuaBros]

Such fantastic work once again. This is the virtua racing deep dive I never knew I needed. You've outdone yourself once again panda. Thank you for your dedication to these videos. Kleemalt Lagto's infamous post made it into the video too?! There truly is no escaping that madman. Lol

@@PandaMoniumReviews woo indeed lmao 🤣

[@MrThunderwing]

Wow, what a fantastic VR documentary. I uploaded a quick video of me playing on the Saturn version earlier in the week and asked in the description if anyone knew what the deal was with Time Warner handling the port. I had multiple replies linking me to your video. Really excellent work!

[@PandaMoniumReviews]

Glad you liked it!! Yeah, it was a tricky situation, and impressive they were able to do what they did without the source.

[@smokeydops]

What a heavy hitting interview.. the game was reverse-engineered! wow!

[@PandaMoniumReviews]

It's kind of nuts that Sega couldn't at least give them the source for VR Deluxe or something. They had it rough, with that and the Sophia nonsense.

[@mrbig2648]

Another amazing video! I feel that Daytona CCE gets similar criticism to this game, i.e. controlling/playing differently from the arcade original. Personally, I loved Daytona CCE and look forward to playing this someday too. Good to hear it emulates so well in Mednafen. I had my head turned by Sega Rally at the time, so never got to play Saturn Virtua Racing.

[@fed402_1]

I think this channel is the embodiment of quality and quantity. Every saturn game? And with this amount of heart put into it? Makes sense it's only 41 videos in... Whatever, KEEP GOING! THIS IS SO COOL!!!!

[@greyfox1127]

Brilliant video and excellent content. Fascinating interview with Mr Tolman. Incredible insights and amazing Easter Eggs. I’n so glad others are beginning to appreciate the Saturn’s version of Virtua Racing. While I loved the arcade (and am very grateful for the Switch port) and played the Megadrive version to death and got my 32X back in the day purely for Deluxe I still really appreciated the Saturn version. Unlike the others it added lots of content (funnily enough one of the sticks people often used to beat Sega with back in the day was the lack of extra content especially compared to arch rivals Namco who packed their arcade ports with additional content. I think looking back a lot of the disappointment was unrealistic expectations about the possibility of arcade perfect ports back in the day. Also many reviews somehow saw the game as “old” which I kind of understand as it didn’t fit into either the current/cutting edge or retro categories at the time of release. I always think of it as more like a “Cover Version” if the original. Similar with The second Daytona game - a cover version with some similar cars and tracks but additional content and a different handling model etc Certainly compared to many other Saturn racers it more than stands up. Cracking game taken on its own merits.

[@JCM217]

[@JamesChatting]

If you played Virtual Racing on Saturn when it was released, you know what a disappointment it was

[@CrossingRover]

Obviously I haven't watched the whole thing but I love Virtua Racing. I'm a millennial so I didn't grow up with it, but I think it really holds up from a gameplay perspective.

[@CrossingRover]

Ok I finished watching the whole thing. I loved the description of the development process to put the final game into better perspective. I do think that Saturn Virtua Racing feels different compared to the original which I played on Switch. However as I intimated I don't have any preconceived notions of how it should play. I think for a complete ground up creation with no source code it gets very close. I also like the extra content for a home release. I'm sure the purists will balk but I think Time Warner did a great job.

[@Uutama]

Amazing video, you just keep getting better and better. Keep up the great work Nick! As someone who has never played the Saturn port of Virtua Racer because of hearing how different and bad it is, I think you've successfully sold me on trying it out. It looks really good.
