I played this kid a little bit (rented it from the video store) and 1v1'd with my older brother, but he would always win because he had an "NES Advantage" controller where the D-pad was replaced with a joystick, made it incredibly easy for him to win the side-looking events. I also never won the tractor pulls as a kid because I never knew you could gear shift. I wish the side-scroll events had longer tracks, would add some extra skill rather than red-lining revs the entire time and repairing after each race. Also lol'd when the CPU bugged out at 15:40. Happened like once a playthrough on real console too where the CPU would suicide and spam special attacks. Also sometimes the track would turn into all money pickups.
@hfcriske my buddy namrepus221 stated: I believe it does. It does 'feel' like it, but I'm not 100% sure if they do or if it's perception. Only person who would know more is bisqwit since he did a full decompile of the game
@@andrewvanwinkle2758 Thank you for getting back to me. I do also vaguely recall feeling that the opponents got tougher, come to think of it we might have even tried to intentionally not bankrupt them for as long as possible.

Nice! Loved this game as a kid. Is there an opponent after Terminator?
Yes, it is the smasher. Then after smasher, it'll be the viper. Then it starts over again after that
@@andrewvanwinkle2758 Cool, I've never seen anyone bankrupt Terminator. Does the difficulty increase with each opponent as well?
@@hfcriske i don't remember if it does or not, I'll ask a buddy of mine and see what he says
