Surprising Racer on the NES

TIL: Square made this game!

enter image description here

In the early releases for the NES, this game had me the most impressed with what was offered on hand. I'm not sure of the 2.9 overall rating that this game has, but I liked and enjoyed this game more than I had any reason to. I love the controls, I love how the gameplay has actual weight and and accuracy to it, a good selection of tracks and variety, yet still not badly designed that it could only fit the period it only released at. it is good. if you spot a cartridge for the game in the wild, I highly recommend it.

or just grab a rom from somewhere and play it. it's not like Square will ever going to release this again anyway.
