So this is another NES game I played this last weekend called Rad Racer. One of the things I find most interesting about this racing game is the fact that SquareSoft (now Square Enix) is the developer. They made an attempt at "3-D" in this game, when you push select, the screen starts flashing in blue and red. I remember using the supposed 3-D glasses that came with the game when it first came out, and it was horrible; so I tried to see if it was my young eyes ... it wasn't. This is the first game I can remember where you could actually select the music you wanted to listen to; I think there were three various songs you could select from. A few years later Square released Rad Racer II.

Back when "Rad" used to be cool to say

That looks like fun. But that TV looks badass. Not sure which is better.
ReplyDeleteHonestly the TV is a 50 some inch DLP TV I believe. Yes it's HD but the screen has a few stretched spots and a cracked screen. Not my TV ;)
ReplyDeleteRad isn't cool to say anymore? Shit..... I guess I'm not rad anymore.
ReplyDeleteThat is phat! It's totally far out. Hahaha! I miss that game.
