Initial D

This product comes from Highwaygames.com

Initial D is a one-on-one race game which takes place on a mountain course. Based around the characters from a famous comic strip, the player's goal is to beat the rival and become the legendary fastest driver. Released in 2002 for the European market as single sit down cabinet linkable up to 2 players.

Initial D also has the revolutionary card system to support the players to enjoy the game wherever they left off. The game is powered by Sega's Naomi 2 board, which brings unparalleled graphic reality to the game and allows players to experience a real sense of speed and acceleration.

Players have a choice of 3 game modes and 4 courses:

1.Legendary Fastest Driver - This is a 1-player story time mode. In this mode you will try to become the fastest driver of the 4 mountains. Each mountain has different computer rivals that are based on the story from the comic book.

2.Time Attack - The player can practice without any competition to achieve their fastest lap. These fastest lap times can then be downloaded onto an Internet ranking site.

3.Link Battle - This is a one on one competition with your friends.

The unique Card System allows players to build a totally unique custom tuned car that is personal to them. This information is then stored on a paper credit card with a magnetic strip similar to those issued at car parks. They have a choice of car manufacturer, car colours, sponsor and parts to tune the car. Each time they race the car the player accumulates competition points which allows them to add new parts and tune the car, allowing you to improve your performance in each level without having to drop back a level.
