Gamers won’t have to wait much longer to own 3D Outrun. According to Nintendo’s website, the game will be released March 12, 2015 and will cost $5.99 .
Here is Nintendo’s full press release:
3D Out Run™ is the critically acclaimed 1986 driving game designed by Yu Suzuki, re-mastered and enhanced for the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system. 3D Out Run includes all of Out Run’s original content, alongside two new songs and runs at 60 frames per second, which is twice the speed of the original version. The game features a built in Stage Select option that allows players to save and resume progress mid-game, has adjustable difficulty settings, and includes unlockable car customization options. Additionally, players are able to choose from a number of real-life arcade cabinets wherein everything from the appearance to the environmental sounds of the specific cabinet are recreated, providing a true and authentic arcade experience.
I’d rather have Outrun 2019 but I just like cars with jet engines.
Outrunners would probably be possible on the New3DSXL hardware though I’d want download play multiplayer somehow.
I think I’m gonna keep waiting on these to see if the cartridge collection version hits the states since it has all the games I want on it and it’s a heck of a lot cheaper than buying one at a time with that large mark up price.
Not that some aren’t worth it but I like my multi game carts.
