Rad Racer is an action-packed, adrenaline-pumping racing game developed and published by Square for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1987. As one of the earliest console racing simulations, it places players in epic night and day races across various settings including cities, coastlines, and deserts. With a choice between a Ferrari 328 or a Formula One race car, players have to navigate different landscapes while avoiding collisions and outpacing competitors. It's particularly known for its innovative “3D mode” which could be enabled with the accompanying glasses, adding a unique depth to gameplay. Rad Racer's fast-paced action and challenging gameplay cemented its status as a classic in the racing genre.
