I'm SO glad they made steering so much easier and they took out the generic auto or manual transmissions. They also added the ability to jump and drift - you press the left peddle while driving to jump, and hold it to drift and charge a boost. Very impressed with Namco right now, that I actually want them to make more driving games.
...is that local barcade Dave & Buster's?
That's like the only place that's licensed to have it in their arcades, IIRC. lol
Nope, it's locally-owned...They have a bunch of retro games and pinball machines (as well as some more recent ones). My hometown's actually a vacation area, so they're usually pretty busy, so I guess they might have the money to own a license to it I maybe??? I should look more into that stuff.
whOOPS i thought it was licensed but apparently not - but it's kind of a "staple" of the Dave & Busters that I've been to around here and in Manhattan. I wasn't actually sure if they managed to seal an exclusivity deal with Nintendo or not regarding the machines though. lol
