If You Love Daytona USA, Don't Miss '90s Super GP Coming to Nintendo Switch

Sometimes you want to take an entire afternoon to adjust tire pressure, find the perfect spoiler, and balance out the weight of your car in a racing sim. Sometimes you just want to hop behind a controller and rocket down a street at high speeds, sliding through turns, and knocking opponents out of the way like they were RC cars. That's the Daytona USA way, and soon Nicalis will be reviving that 90s racing magic on Nintendo Switch with '90s Super GP.
Originally, this 90s racing flashback was in development for the Wii U, but I think we all know that that ship has sailed by now. And thank goodness, because now this game is in development on the Nintendo Switch, where it will launch alongside its PS4 and Steam counterparts.
"It is the nineties, and there is time for arcade racing! '90s Super GP is soaked in the nostalgia of the greatest era of racing video games, when 'realism' and tedious minutiae took a back seat to fantastic environments, hyperspeed drifting and paint-scraping! Offering three different racing classes and a variety of exciting gameplay modes, '90s Super GP skillfully combines the feel and aesthetic of classic arcade racers with the polish, physics modeling and widescreen HD visuals of current-generation games."
Features:
- Intense stock car, supercar and formula racing in the style of the best arcade racers of the 1990s
Bright colors, crazy track layouts and dance music evoke the golden era of arcade racing games
Finely tuned driving physics with precision handling and old-school drifting
12 unique vehicles with different attributes and customizable colors
Six dynamic and shortcut-filled courses, three of which have "Long" and "Short" variations
Arcade mode for quick races in any unlocked vehicle on any unlocked course
Championship mode with four circuits in each of the stock, supercar and formula racing classes
Local and online multiplayer modes, online leaderboards
For being intentionally dated, the visuals sure to look good to us. We can't wait to hear more about this project, and we'll keep you updated as soon as we get a release date or a new trailer.
