    I have been teasing this series for a very long time...and that's because it took a VERY LONG TIME to make...a twenty episode retrospective on every Sega developed arcade racing game in 3D! Because whether its retro gaming or modern pc gaming...Sega is the KING of the arcade racing genre! So buckle up and get ready for a retrogaming ride!
    THE RULES FOR INCLUSION: 1) It must have had an arcade release (So no Sega GT) 2) It must be in 3D (Bye Bye Outrunners, etc etc) and 3) you MUST be racing against an opponent and not just a timer (sorry Crazy Taxi, Wild Riders)

    Up next: Club Kart: European Championship. This one is a weird little arcade racing game because its all just professional go kart racing. Retro games can be weird like that sometimes! But if you look past the randomness of go kart racing that isnt in a Crash Bandicoot racing game...you will realize this is just Daytona USA lite! Its definitely an obscure video game but its got a LOT to love and it runs on the Sega NAOMI 2...which was basically Dreamcast 2!
    Its definitely a Sega Hidden gem! Its Ridge Racer in go karts! Or Mario Kart / Crash Team Racing with zero powerups?!?!

    A massive arcade near my summer cottage (in a effing forest) had the deluxe cab of this game, and it was so loud, it shook the entire room. Literally sounded like someone was driving a real racing car inside the arcade.

    First time viewer here, wow did I enjoy the video! So compact, but with many of the things you said specifically tied in with what was on screen at the time, it just made it all so impactful. While I've never been able to play club kart European Session, I very enjoy what I've seen and for sure the soundtrack (it was lovely to hear the music and sound effects mentioned), but I mainly know it for all the MECHATRO R&D developers' names being in the high scores. It's very rare, from what I've seen, for full first or second names to be used there. It was almost nostalgic to see the people's names throughout the video, like NAOYUKI (Sato) and (Tomoyuki) GOTO, back to February when I was first combing through RUclips videos to see them all.

    I vaguely knew this existed, but it's not one I ever saw cabinet of nor have played. It does seem pretty fun. I can't think of many go-kart racing games that are a more realistic take versus the more Mario-Kart style of game. My uncle had Virtual Kart or something like that from Microprose for DOS (he had every Microprose sim game and also Papyrus racing games). That was fun for what it was, but Club Kart here seems a lot more up my alley. I *should* check it out...someday...

    Só uma observação...A Naomi 2 não é um Dreamcast 2, como muitos pensam ser, ela na verdade é o próprio Dreamcast de Desenvolvimento Final, que por ter hardware para desenvolvedores de jogos, obviamente possuia maior capacidade de memória de uso em paralelo, pois ela usa apenas uma CPU SH-4, para atuar com duas GPUs CLX2 em paralelo, para usar toda capacidade de processamento do SH-4, que está estimado em 10 milhões de poligonos em mundo Real de Jogos, e portanto, qualquer jogo feito pra Naomi 2, está ainda dentro, das capacidades gráficas que um Dreamcast de consumidor também possa operar e receber portas, a diferença, é que essas portas, seriam convertidas para serem usadas em Dreamcast de hardware SH-4, que usava GD de 1.2 GB, enquanto pra naomi 2, seriam convertidos em hardware SH-4, que usava Cartuchos com até 512 MB, mostrando que a Mídia do Dreamcast, era mais Superior que a Mídia da Naomi 2, em termos de armazenamento, e toda a perda sofrida, causada pela conversão de jogos Naomi 2 para Dreamcast, seriam compensadas pela Maior Capacidade de Armazenamento do Dreamcast em relação a Menor capacidade de Armazenamento da Naomi 2, ou seja, um Jogo Naomi 2 de 512 MB de Memória de Cartucho, poderia ser facilmente convertido, em 1.2 GB em formato GD para o Dreamcast, mostrando por isso, que a Naomi 2 não é um Dreamcast 2, e sim um Dreamcast em Cartucho, enquanto o Dreamcast, é uma Naomi 2 em GD.

    I remember a cabinet with an entire go kart mounted on a sort of gyroscope to “emulate” bends, leans and brakes.

      yes there was a deluxe cab that basically simulated the motion of the go kart itself

    Magfest usually has it setup every year and on a giant projector. So you can ride the cart looking at a huge screen.. if you ever go to the con one year.

    I remember seeing the cabinet at a place called the Saloon at the East Gate in Dortmund's city center, which also once had Cruis'n Exotica and one of the Virtua Striker titles back in the mid-2000s. However, similar to the one arcade which once had Winding Heat and Time Crisis II, even that place is off-limits to minors as how I was at the time since it also had a casino with slot machines and a bar with alcoholic drinks. There was one game that was just outside the premises which was a game made and only intended for little kids called Space Bike, which has not yet seen a ROM dump as of now.

      @@VideoGameEsoterica But nevertheless though, much like with Winding Heat and Time Crisis II, even I was able to play these three games that were there via emulation today, even though Cruis'n Exotica still doesn't really work well in MAME ATM. I did play the N64 port of Cruis'n Exotica when I discovered it and played it via the Project64 Emulator, even though unlike the original arcade game, the home version didn't see the light of day in Europe in where I live.

    I once dismissed Go Karts for a long time until a girlfriend persuaded me to race against her son. I had so much fun, especially bumping all the kids off the track and being able to get away with it.
