This was my favourite arcade game back in 1987 when I first went to Blackpool on holiday. I couldn’t get enough of it and will always have a special place in my heart. I love Outrun. ❤️
This game was where I learned to slam the gear into first gear to brake when you started to drift in the bends... Still drive my Ferrari like this now.
Galaxy Force 2's moving cab was incredible. Too bad it was prone to mechanical failures. I only got to play it once or twice @ my local arcade, as it was nearly always broke-down.
Outrun, like Doube Dragon, Golden Axe and a few others was another arcade classic that helps to lauch home entertainment systems. Sega Master Systems was powered by this game. Mind blowing at the time.
As a kid when this came out I had always said that I would own an Outrun machine. Fast forward to 1998 I finally had the chance to buy one for $150 from a nice lady who's kids had grown up and moved out years prior, so no one used it anymore. Replaced the flyback, rebuilt the monitor chassis and it's been rock solid since. This game was always a holy grail for me and I'm glad to have it in my arcade collection. We joke that when I die I'll probably be buried in it, or with it Lol.
I only played a stand-up cabinet version, must have been quite an experience with the full cabinet. Thanks for the video. I learnt a lot from this vid - especially the history bit at the beginning. I appreciate what you're doing here. Respect!
I was blown away the first time I saw this in an arcade; the graphics, music, and speed worked together to provide an unforgettable experience. No other driving game has had quite the same effect on me since.
Cannonball Run could possibly be one of the best movies ever! I can watch it over and over again. Burt R and Dom D are two of the funniest guys alive and Farrah Fawcett.....SHWIIIIING!
Learned how to drive with Night Driver. Loved that game. Enjoy all your vids, brings me back to riding my BMX bike up to the Machine Shop in South Hills Village and spending hours in there playing.
I used to have the deluxe cabinet a few years ago. Very fun but also very big. So I swaped it with a high speed pinball. The outrun cabinet went on a tour with other arcade games. I would like to have a stand up cabinet some day..
The best way to play Outrun on the PC was on a Tandy-1000. You see, the Tandy 1000 had the same sound hardware as the Sega Master System. So when games were optimized to utilize it, you got a much richer sounding game than normal MS-DOS PCs did. Thankfully DosBox can be easily configured to run in Tandy-1000 mode. You set the machine type to Tandy and make sure the Tandy sound option is turned on in the config file. The way I do the former is I have two lines in DosBox's config telling it what system I want it to be, with a # in front of the one I'm not currently wanting to play, because hastags render any line a "comment". You can easily toggle stuff this way.
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries That Tandy was something else. It was a kind of hand me down from my uncle. Not all games supported Tandy graphics and sound, but the ones that did were a real treat.
Awesome short documentary man 👍 I used to play the Master System version for hours on end when my age was still in single digits. Much respect from the UK 🇬🇧
Nice work, first time viewing one of your videos and enjoyed it a lot. I feel like the AGES saturn compilation one just runs at 50/60Hz, always felt like that at least!
Great video. I've been playing OutRun since the age of 5, starting with the Genesis port in 1993. My love for the game and franchise grew over the years and it's become my favorite game of all time.
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries I really liked OutRun 2019 as well. People always like to debate if it is really an OutRun game or not. I've always felt that it is. Best support for that is the fact the same developers ported the Genesis version and built it off the same game code.
The greatest part of the GBA compilation is that they work at 60 frames. That made it instantly better than almost every other home port and you could play it anywhere. Nowadays I play Outrun through the Cannonball engine which has been ported to several systems, like the Wii. It is a great way to play, 60 FPS (although you can change it if you want), and a good set of options and new modes, like being able to play every single route in one long driving session!
Out Run was release in north America for the Sega Saturn published by Working Designs under their Spaz in Sega Ages. I had the game for the Sega Saturn
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries Reviewers are saying that the bench that you sit on is really uncomfortable because of the weak padding and lack of back support on this new home release. However, people are already modifying the seating. Otherwise they say it’s great. Arcade1up is releasing a stand up version this coming year. I just wish I could have played the hydraulic version back in the day!!
I loved this game. The music was so iconic and still great today. They remixed the music on the Japanese Saturn version (in addition to the original Aracde music) and the Musical Sound Shower is SOOOO amazing. I still listen to it in my playlist today. The US did eventually get a release of this game from Working Designs (under the SPAZ name yeah that's a whole other thing....) There was an updated sequel that came out called Outrun Online Arcade. You could drive all of the Fully Licensed Ferraris and unlock super rare and unique ones. Very fun game it did have different play style, but very much worth picking up if you never played it. Great video.
Thanks for your work - I'm sure you know of it but it wasn't in the picture - Outrunners is a nice arcade sequel to Outrun that really pushes the limits of pixel scaled games.
Correction, Out Run WAS released in North America on the Sega Saturn with the 60 fps (smooth) option on Sega Ages that included After Burner and Space Harrier. It came out around November of 1997.
The standard sitdown cabinate (flat back chair)you say did not move actually did move the difference between that and the other sitdown is the chair which featured built in speakers.
I’m surprised that the Amiga version was as well-received in this video as it was. For an Amiga, those sound effects are pretty bad (that skid noise and engine noise in particular - ugh!), and the border colours are pretty nauseating at times. The _Lotus_ games showed that the Amiga was more than capable of a decent car game, whereas US Gold continue their run of poor arcade conversions with _OutRun._
The Saturn port WAS released in America. It was released on the Sega Ages compilation disk. Also it did included the 60 frames per second mode it's listed in the options as "smooth". The Japanese version includes exclusive music tracks that were not available on the North American and European release
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries And there was only supposed to be 3 versions: Deluxe, normal movement and stand-up but then arcade owners used to convert sit down star wars cabinets into Outrun (before Turbo Outrun cabs were used).
I remember seeing the moving arcade cabinet and it blew me away :-) This might have been before the 3DS release of Outrun? It is amazing and even includes a mode where it can shift the screen to the same degrees as the original moving cabinet. Playing it in actual 3d is also a lot of fun :-D
"On Golden Blonde" "Flat as my first girlfriend..." Bwaahahaahaaa!!! I hear you Patman! Too flippin' funny! Both made me LOL! Seriously, though, somebody bought this for me for Sega Genesis and I HATED (trying to) drive on the D-pad. Ugh!
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries Me and my best bud used to make silly porn references all the time. Lol. Star Whores, James Blonde: 007", Forrest Hump, The Flintbones, Your-Ass-ic Park, Batman n Throbbin', XXX-Men, Fantastic 4", etc... Mostly uninspired and silly. Teens! 😁 Would love to see your History of Forgotten Worlds, MegaMan and others but maybe I missed em on ur channel. Thanks, again for the 'member berries.
The c64 version on tape wasnt a multi load in the uk . All levels loaded in one go. That's why they had to cut down the graphics .it was a trade off to having to load every level
Loved driving in the car of Turbo Outrun back in the arcades of Salthill, Galway city....back in the 80s 90s. Sega Ages released the arcade version of Outrun on the Nintendo switch last year.......among other classics.....hopefully Turbo will get released......cos the Megadrive/Genesis version lacked the original sounds/voices and feel of the arcade
The game was never released in North America so I was only able to play it later on in emulator. Turbo would be fantastic on the switch and hopefully it does get released
The JP Saturn version has an optional remixed soundtrack which sounds great. I've read that the timer is wrong in the PAL version and there is the odd graphical glitch too.
Ok. One of my favorites growing up. I recently, about 3 weeks ago, played it via the in-game arcade in the Sega title Fist Of The North Star: Lost Paradise. I was, unfortunately a bit off-put by the graphics of Out Run. I feel it may somehow not look as good as it should, or as it does here in the vid. I'll have to check on it. Anyways, another fun video man. :)
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries I assume it's partly due to not having played it in a long time, and possibly....possibly....the emulation not being up to snuff? I'm looking forward to trying it again when I get home today. The arcade in Fist Of The North Star also has Space Harrier, and Hang On, and the Sega Mark Iii version of Fist Of The North Star is playable in your hideout.
Turbo Outrun caused me to sleepwalk for the first time! I completed the arcade game and screamed 'I've done it! I've done it!' Later that night I stood up on my bed and shouted those words, according to my dad!
Great video… your voiceover reminds me of the Simpsons 'phone menu' guy who says "If you know the name of the king or queen being murdered, press 1". If you don't know what I'm talking about, look it up on RUclips!
i think i still got the cassette of the music that came with the commodore 64 version. love this game. got it on xbox as well. the music for this and space harrier are classic. got the music from both these games on my mp3 player.
I can verify this as I own a copy for the US Saturn. It was released by Working Designs and the 60 FPS mode can be unlocked by either a code or clearing a race. Can't remember which.
This game is amazing, i got it on Switch Lite back around when i got it, costed me 5 bucks and i have tons of hours in it. Don't know if any arcades in Holland have it though
I've played this on the enclosed sit down version, the wood cabinet stand up version and the simulator version, the simulator ver is the best experience otherwise same game across versions Passing Breeze FTW, best racing game music of the 80's
Switch and 3DS versions are really well done, too, though no longer using a Ferrari and with extra features. For pure Out Run, I use the MAME version on Steam Deck :D For the PC, though, check out Cannonball Out Run - it needs the arcade ROMs but is an enhanced version with original gameplay, 60FPS and different camera angles.
I tend to dislike racing games, unless they are similar to mario kart, but I have always loved out run. Now that it has been ported to switch through sega ages, I play it a lot.
Nice adult movie reference "On Golden Blonde"! Ginger Lynn and Christy Canyon...that was back when they ripped off mainstream movie titles for adult films
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries You know everyone is going to go find it to watch now. I remember seeing this and Poonies (Goonies) in the adult room at the local video store.
You forgot the Tiger tabletop and electronic handheld. They are not bad for limited lcd games and fun for what they are. I own the Tiger handheld. Would love to have the tabletop one as well. Anyway lost count how many numerous quarters I dumped into this game growing up. Lol
Sega made a PSP copy and I was introduced to the game this way, I’m considering getting a Sega game gear or genesis emulator for my Android and downloading either.
Why not emulate the original arcade rom on your Android? Just get Outrun.zip from here. ia800106.us.archive.org/view_archive.php?archive=/23/items/MAME_0.193_ROMs_merged/MAME_0.193_ROMs_merged.zip
This was my favourite arcade game when I was a little kid in the 80"s. Thanks for uploading. It brings back memories of a more happy and innocent time.
I used to love outrunners. I had every intention of including all of the out run games in the video but they were just too much to cram into one episode
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries awesome video none the less. Thank you for making these awesome videos. I know they take time to make. They keep getting better and better.
Whoa! Incorrect sir! Working Designs DID bring out the 3 in 1 to the US with Afterburner, Outrun & Space Harrier! It was the first and ONLY Sega Ages US game release in the State from WD of all things! Plus, the manual actually mentions the extra arranged music tracks for Outrun! BUT they did not have the room to add the music in the final product, but the manuals were already printed! I remember being a prominent member at the ye old Working Designs Message Board (WDMB) where I complained about that and Vic sincerely apologized and explained what happened. And they say stuff on the internet never goes away... then bring back my user name, posts and all the conversations we had from back then! Or my Microsoft free beta website! All gone.
Outrun the original and the 2000 game NEVER get old! Love Outrun and always will. Here's another weird tidbit. Many years ago got into it with another fan here. We were going to the beach. A gas station had the game. It was the SIT Down version! I actually played it, and when the car crashed for a split second I saw the guy and girl stand up and start walking to the car!!!! I have NEVER seen that animation since. And someone told me it had to be a bootleg version?
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries my enjoyment of Outrun is either on par with yours or might surpass your own... 😋 you'd think I've had gotten better at the game as long as I've played it. The Genesis version looks great on the Nomad too! Still think the Genesis version of Frogger was meant for the Nomad...over the TV. And when you thought Outrun 2 Coast 2 Coast didn't come out for the Xbox (not you personally but many didn't think it did)... I found it online and bought it! Backward compatible with the 360 but actually does NOT look as well as it does on the original Xbox... Hey loving the videos! Keep it up!

One of the greatest games ever. It still holds up.
This game was where I learned to slam the gear into first gear to brake when you started to drift in the bends... Still drive my Ferrari like this now.
That's awesome, I learned to drive on this game as well
Farrari lol
Such a pretentious comment
I was lucky to have played the sit down moving version. It's a lot of fun.
I know I played the sit down version of power drift but not sure about outrun.
Memories memories I had outrun as well for the Sega console not sega genius
The days of the great Arcade.
Sit down version in 4 quarters bar.. Stratford, London
Galaxy Force 2's moving cab was incredible. Too bad it was prone to mechanical failures. I only got to play it once or twice @ my local arcade, as it was nearly always broke-down.

Thanks for the video. I learnt a lot from this vid - especially the history bit at the beginning. I appreciate what you're doing here. Respect!
I used to play outrun on C64. Turbo outrun had a pretty silky frame rate with amazing SID tunes. It still took forever to load.
Turbo outrun on the Commodore was very good
I was blown away the first time I saw this in an arcade; the graphics, music, and speed worked together to provide an unforgettable experience. No other driving game has had quite the same effect on me since.
This one pretty much had it all and I agree with everything you said
my first time ever playing this game was six flags Missouri they had the full moving sit down unit !!! Mind blown !!
I never saw a full moving outrun but I did get to play a full-size power drift and it was fantastic
Another awesome video for an all time arcade awesome game. Loved this one. Keep up the fantastic work.👌
Thanks a lot, glad you enjoy my channel
Love your histories of games. Please keep on.
Thank you very much glad you enjoyed it
Great video. I appreciate my retro arcade unit even more since I have all of these.
Very cool, that was always one of the arcade cabinets I wanted to own
Great video, I love the Outrun music!
Thank you so do I
Passing Breeze is a jam.
Cannonball Run could possibly be one of the best movies ever! I can watch it over and over again. Burt R and Dom D are two of the funniest guys alive and Farrah Fawcett.....SHWIIIIING!
Absolutely, I even had that one Farrah Fawcett poster on my wall :-)
Love your videos when I’m down I watch these videos they bring me back to a very innocent and care free part of my life keep up the good work

Here is the Sega Ages cover for the usa that had Outrun in it, www.satakore.com/sega-saturn-game,,T-12707H,,Sega-Ages-USA.html
The Game Gear versoin is my favourite 8-bit port. I liked the Spectrum version. Its muddiness was inspiring somehow
I think the spectrum version was too bad. At least the sprites were nice and large
Outrun two is the only reason I never got rid of my original Xbox that game is a gem.
It absolutely is
This game is amazing, i got it on Switch Lite back around when i got it, costed me 5 bucks and i have tons of hours in it.
Don't know if any arcades in Holland have it though
Five bucks is a great deal for this classic game
I've played this on the enclosed sit down version, the wood cabinet stand up version and the simulator version, the simulator ver is the best experience otherwise same game across versions
Passing Breeze FTW, best racing game music of the 80's
Best racing music and best racing gameOf the 1980s
Arcade Projects represent!!!
Switch and 3DS versions are really well done, too, though no longer using a Ferrari and with extra features. For pure Out Run, I use the MAME version on Steam Deck :D
For the PC, though, check out Cannonball Out Run - it needs the arcade ROMs but is an enhanced version with original gameplay, 60FPS and different camera angles.
I tend to dislike racing games, unless they are similar to mario kart, but I have always loved out run. Now that it has been ported to switch through sega ages, I play it a lot.
It's my all-time favorites arcade racer
Nice adult movie reference "On Golden Blonde"! Ginger Lynn and Christy Canyon...that was back when they ripped off mainstream movie titles for adult films
LOL, it took over a year but somebody finally got the reference :-)
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries You know everyone is going to go find it to watch now. I remember seeing this and Poonies (Goonies) in the adult room at the local video store.
Reminds me of the Top Gear series I grew up with on the SNES
Top Gear was inspired by this game
You forgot the Tiger tabletop and electronic handheld. They are not bad for limited lcd games and fun for what they are. I own the Tiger handheld. Would love to have the tabletop one as well. Anyway lost count how many numerous quarters I dumped into this game growing up. Lol
This is still my all-time favorite racing arcade game
I subscribed to your Channel... It's great nostalgia. What is a sprite?
Thank you For subscribingThe objects that move around the screen
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries 👍
subscribed!
Thank you so much, hope you enjoy my channel
Another informative review and it was stacked ( as my previous girlfriend) with good info!
LOL! Thank you very much :-)
I'm actually playing Out run on my wrist watch.... a Garmin Fenix 5xplus.... runs really well.. 💪😁
That's awesome, Let's hear it for technology :-)
M2 did this classic great justice. Funny it took a handheld to deliver a true experience. 👍
Sega made a PSP copy and I was introduced to the game this way, I’m considering getting a Sega game gear or genesis emulator for my Android and downloading either.
Yes, the PSP version was really good.
Why not emulate the original arcade rom on your Android? Just get Outrun.zip from here.

Outrun on the Genesis is my favourite home port
It is really well done
This was my favourite arcade game when I was a little kid in the 80"s. Thanks for uploading. It brings back memories of a more happy and innocent time.
This is my all-time favorite racing game. Thanks for the nice words
Classic game. Outrunners was fun too
I used to love outrunners. I had every intention of including all of the out run games in the video but they were just too much to cram into one episode
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries awesome video none the less. Thank you for making these awesome videos. I know they take time to make. They keep getting better and better.
@@PuertoR0ck Thanks, I'm glad you like them. Each video takes between 10 and 20 hours to make. Thanks for watching
You Forgot the Nintendo 3DS version.
Whoa! Incorrect sir! Working Designs DID bring out the 3 in 1 to the US with Afterburner, Outrun & Space Harrier! It was the first and ONLY Sega Ages US game release in the State from WD of all things! Plus, the manual actually mentions the extra arranged music tracks for Outrun! BUT they did not have the room to add the music in the final product, but the manuals were already printed! I remember being a prominent member at the ye old Working Designs Message Board (WDMB) where I complained about that and Vic sincerely apologized and explained what happened. And they say stuff on the internet never goes away... then bring back my user name, posts and all the conversations we had from back then! Or my Microsoft free beta website! All gone.
Outrun the original and the 2000 game NEVER get old! Love Outrun and always will. Here's another weird tidbit. Many years ago got into it with another fan here. We were going to the beach. A gas station had the game. It was the SIT Down version! I actually played it, and when the car crashed for a split second I saw the guy and girl stand up and start walking to the car!!!! I have NEVER seen that animation since. And someone told me it had to be a bootleg version?
Thanks for the correction
@@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries my enjoyment of Outrun is either on par with yours or might surpass your own... 😋 you'd think I've had gotten better at the game as long as I've played it. The Genesis version looks great on the Nomad too! Still think the Genesis version of Frogger was meant for the Nomad...over the TV. And when you thought Outrun 2 Coast 2 Coast didn't come out for the Xbox (not you personally but many didn't think it did)... I found it online and bought it! Backward compatible with the 360 but actually does NOT look as well as it does on the original Xbox...
Hey loving the videos! Keep it up!
Was there more than version for Master System, because the footage you showed is definitely not the version I have.
Aside from the 3D version this was the only one for the master system….Unless we are counting outrun Europa
