Gekisou TomaRunner

22.07.1999
Gekisou TomaRunner is an on-foot racing game with various crazy/fantasy/fable/mythological characters where the aim is to navigate the various split path tracks to victory. The game puts heavy emphasis on using the terrain to gain the upper hand over the opponent, and on top of that there are several bonus items to pick up which either can aid the player or be used as weapons against the opponents. The characters all run at a set speed, but using the left and right arm as well as well timed jumps on poles, springboards and hurdles will give the player a speed boost. If enough momentum is gained, the character leans forward and starts dashing at a much faster speed. Some areas will even allow the player to be airborne for a certain amount of time if the right path is chosen and if enough speed is gained. Hitting obstacles, getting punched by opponents or having any of the "weapon" items used against the player will slow their speed down significantly, sometimes even resulting in the character falling over in a stunned state. There are several modes in the game to choose from, including a single player tournament and a two players versus mode.
Tomarunner is a foot-racing game where your opponents include a robot, a kappa, an angel, a masked roller-skater, and a boy with Big Boy hair.

Based on the classic Wacky Races cartoon, this game puts players in the role not of a racer but of a gambler. Players choose different races and gamble on the outcome. Players can pick two different drivers they expect to come out on top. The racing itself is presented via prerendered CG cutscenes with some branching, so players' guesses aren't purely a matter of memorizing the cutscenes. With the money players earn, they can take part in the "trip" mode where they travel through the world of Wacky Races collecting items.

A driving/racing game for Sega Saturn developed by CAVE and TBS Television. It was made as a tie-in to TBS's mid-1990s Japanese game show Tokyo Friend Park, where one of the games, Delisoba ("delivery soba"), had celebrities command a virtual motorcycle trying to deliver soba to the TBS TV Studios. Deluxe is a "port" of this game to the Saturn, which adds features such as a time attack and track editor, and was not sold in stores, but rather given away at the show (either to winners or to audience members, exactly what is unknown).
