Classic Out Run revs up on the Switch

Inspired by movies like Cannonball Run, Sega's Out Run is a true gaming classic, and while the pinnacle of the series was probably Out Run 2006 Coast to Coast on the PSP, there's nothing wrong with the original. So. the Sega Ages Out Run is now on the eShop for $7.99/£5.99 or equivalent offering an against-the-clock race over five stages, with your route varying the difficulty.

 Enhancing the original are tracks added for the 3DS version of Out Run along with all-new arranged versions of songs from the Genesis and Master System releases, such as Midnight Highway and a chiptune version of Radiation from Out Run 2006: Coast 2 Coast.

 The star of the game is the Ferrari Testarossa Spider, whizzing around the corners around the coastal, forest, desert and many other tracks. While a lot of the early Sega games had really limited replay value, the branching route makes this a lot of fun and adds to the challenge.
