History.dat entry:
Road Fighter (c) 1984 Konami.
Road Fighter is an exhilarating, high-speed scrolling racing game.
A unique characteristic of Road Fighter is the fact that bumping into an enemy car does not count as a miss. The counter-steering technique required to 'straighten' your car after bumping into an enemy provided a new level of racing game fun to fans.
- TECHNICAL -
Game ID : GX461
Main CPU : Motorola M6809 (@ 2.048 Mhz)
Sound CPU : Zilog Z80 (@ 3.579545 Mhz)
Sound Chips : DAC, SN76496 (@ 1.789772 Mhz), Sanyo VLM5030 (@ 3.58 Mhz)
Players : 2
Control : 8-way joystick
Buttons : 2 [Low, High]
- TRIVIA -
Road Fighter was released in December 1984 and is the first car racing game from Konami.
- TIPS AND TRICKS -
* Do not miss the bonus car : As you proceed in the game, the difficulty level increases. You will make more misses and will lose fuel quickly. If you spot a bonus car, make sure to run into it, even if it requires you to slow down in the process.
* Get used to counter-steering : Driving without bumping into the enemy is extremely difficult. If you do bump into them, learn to stay calm and counter-steer!
* Secret bonuses : They are all hard to obtain, but they are worth the try! Keep on driving for a certain amount of time without bumping into the enemy -- Konamiman, a train, or an airplane will appear and give you bonus points.
* Run into bonus cars without missing any -- more bonus points.
* Make it to the goal without bumping into any enemy -- 10,000 bonus points.
