    What a marvel for the NES hardware this is, and it does a hilarious job of completely upstaging the awful SNES conversion of the sequel!

      It is official, THQ is the worst publisher for Nintendo consoles. THQ was a coward not adding 30 frames per second for the SNES release of Hard Drivin'. It would have been nice if Nintendo published this game, but I can understand they were scared and didn't publish games by Atari. It must have been because Atari Corporation almost ruined the video game industry, so I can see why Nintendo of America acted paranoid. Their crazy censorship happened from Nintendo of America only because of Atari's insufferable behavior with the video game industry during the early 80's which caused Nintendo of America's paranoia in the first place. I'm glad Nintendo won against Atari because you just can't name an American company after a Japanese word and expect it to do very well which is why Atari Corporation failed to begin with.

      This prototype is the equivalent of playing *_"Gran Turismo"_* on a C64. Probably the most impressive NES proto I've ever seen.

    For a console designed in 1985, this is damn impressive. Unlike the arcade and 16-bit ports, this game uses pre recorded sprites - and these sprites look way better than the Commondore version.

    Wow!!!! That was very impressive and the game had a solid draw distance. I would have kept this in my collection as one of the more playable versions! The NES kicked ass on this game. Only thing that baffled me is how you would be off road yet be in the middle of the road or how you'd miss some cars and others! The bridge jump and loop looked impressive as hell!

    Many people question tengens quality,but some of their ports are actually very good on the NES. Unlike TH*Q abomination sequel on the super NES "Oh lets port a arcade game that has a slide show worth of frames that is an unplayable mess" you know... I rented race drivin' as a kid and liked it because of the crash cams and cool stunts. however it's one of those games that you play again in later years and that fondess goes straight out the window. Shame this was never released. As a fan of the orginal,I would have bought it on the NES.

    I'm guessing the reason that Race Drivin' and Road Riot 4WD got the green light was because that decision was made by THQ, the publisher who licensed those properties for the SNES, and not Tengen or Atari. Plus, I doubt the decision by Tengen to scrap this NES game was not so much about protecting the brand, but moreso about the risk of being stuck with expensive unsold cartridges of a less than stellar game, when it was already tough for them as an unlicensed publisher.
