Item Description

MRC: Multi Racing Championship asks a question few early Nintendo 64 racers bothered with: what if the fork in the road actually mattered? Developed by Genki, the studio later known for the Tokyo Xtreme Racer series, and published by Ocean in the West and Imagineer in Japan, this 1997 racer drew big crowds at that year's Tokyo Game Show by mixing road and off-road driving on the same courses.

There are only three tracks, Sea Side, Mountain and Downtown, but each one splits at several points into rough dirt, snow-covered road or a longer, slicker street route. The ten cars cover both sides of that divide, from 4x4s and trucks that shrug off rough terrain to street machines that need careful handling once the asphalt ends. The garage lets you tune seven areas, tires, brakes, suspension, steering, transmission, gear ratio and aerodynamics, so a street car can be set up to survive the dirt if you know what you are doing.

Championship mode pits you against nine computer racers, Time Trial adds a ghost car, Free Run lets you learn the branches at your own pace, and an unlockable Match Race takes you into a night race against a hidden opponent. Two-player VS racing handles the head-to-head, and mirrored versions of the courses open up as you progress. The game supports the Rumble Pak.

Critics praised the car customization and the mix of on-road and off-road racing while wishing for more tracks, and GamePro called it the console's only real alternative to Cruis'n USA at the time. It is a thoughtful, tinkerer's racer from the N64's first wave, and the branching courses reward players who take the time to learn every route.

About the game

Featuring up to 10 chooseable cars (many which open up later in the game), and three courses (plus mirror courses), Multi Racing Championship's biggest draw is the splendidly realistic feel of the cars themselves and the well designed courses on which they drive. The cars range from 4X4s, trucks, and off-road racers to slick street cars, Lamborghinis and the like. While initially it may seem like there is a deficit of courses, in fact, the multi-terrain courses contain mini-courses within each one. For instance, at least three times in each course, you will have the choice to take two different road directions -- either rough dirt track or snow-laden road, ot a slick but usually longer street course. Each car handles terrains differently, and some, like the trucks, obviously handle the off-roads better than others, but you can also modify your street car to handle dirst roads well, too.
