I talk a LOT about arcade racing games on the channel. It's one of my favorite retro gaming genres of all time and you all seem to enjoy the videos! So today we have D1GP from Taito and Yukes (you know the company that develops basically every WWE wrestling video game) which technically is KIND OF a racing game...but not really?

Hello and welcome to "The Unported Playlist"
So we decided to extend this playlist from 10 games to does it even matter what the count is anymore? lol it's a lot!
D1GP is a very interesting video game. It's a racing video game...where you technically don't race anyone. It's actually a drifting simulator, which isn't really a genre of video games...except for here! Sure there is Initial D from Sega and OutRun 2 have some great drifting mechanics...but D1GP is just totally different...in a good way!
You can run this game on a Taito Type X motherboard or via emulation with Teknoparrot. Emulators for the win (I do own a Type X2 arcade PCB but wiring a wheel/pedals up to it...is a chore!)
Its definitely both an obscure video game and a rare video game though...so if you ever see a cabinet give it a shot!
THIS IS THE LONG PLAY
