NASCAR 99 (Nintendo 64, 1998)

Product Specs

Description

The first NASCAR game for N64 features 37 professional drivers and cars, 17 licensed tracks, and a two-man commentary team of Bob Jenkins and Benny Parsons. Three play options include a quick race with default settings, a single race with user-defined settings, and the championship mode, which involves earning points for top-10 finishes in multiple 18-race NASCAR seasons. Before each event, players can fine-tune their car's tire pressure, gears, shocks, and various other settings. Featured courses include Sears Point, Watkins Glen, Darlington, and both day and night versions of Bristol, with single players competing against a field of 19 computer-controlled rivals. Split-screen racing with a friend is also supported, albeit with a reduced field of six AI drivers to improve the game's frame rate.
