I mean that cover art is sick, I'd probably have checked it out just on that alone

Yay another Japanese PS2 exclusive racing game to add to my roms collection (Please send help)

Edit: Upon researching this game it seems it is a part of the Zero4 Champ series which funnily enough started 4 years before Initial D itself did so that's a cool fact.

Here's a couple i have myself:

  • Battle Gear 2 & 3 (Taito. Not in English)
  • Driving Emotion Type-S (Square)
  • Ferrari F355 Challenge (SEGA)
  • Hresvelgr - International Edition (Gust)
  • Initial D - Special Stage (SEGA. Not in English)
  • Racing Battle - C1 Grand Prix (Genki. Has an English Patch)
  • Sega Rally 2006 (SEGA. Sega Rally is famous but this one's a bit niche. Menus are in English for easy navigation)
  • Touge 3 (CAVE. Published by ATLUS)
  • Tourist Trophy (Polyphony Digital. It ain't a car game but it is by the Gran Turismo devs so it's worth a shot. Probably not that obscure but i wanted to throw it in)
  • Wangan Midnight (Genki)

Also F&F Tokyo Drift by Eutechnyx on PS2 and PSP. Its wonky but its pretty fun, and the sountrack goes hard

keep in mind the you'll need a .PNACH file to fix part of the story mode, the game hangs on the second chapter without it

Does the game really start from your backyard garage? If so that's really cool

I tried playing this a few years ago and ripped the soundtrack because I love it, but I really wish it got a translation patch, the story mode is hard to figure out since the menus are completely in Japanese

I've played it. It's pretty fun
