Games Asylum: "After throwing a very reasonable £5.99 at the Nintendo eShop, I got straight into very definitely the best version of Virtua Racing I’ve played.
But in this case, a bit of context greatly enhances the enjoyment. It was only after looking back at previous versions of Virtua Racing – including the arcade original – that I could appreciate the scale of what M2 have achieved with this conversion. The Switch version looks great, but it doesn’t look like the arcade version – it looks likes what I thought the arcade version looked like. That’s a mixture of ’90s naivety – it was cutting edge at the time – and my mind’s eye upscaling my memories of the game."
"The Sega Ages releases keep on coming so allow me to catch you up on the 4 most recent entries in Sega's retro series for Switch." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
I adore Crazy Taxi (began playing it back in the 90s) and especially the Vegas-style city in Crazy Taxi 3. Just found Michael Andronico's article Sega Genesis Mini Hands-on Review: This Beats Nintendo and Sony on https://essays.agency/homew...
Sega has updated the official Japanese website for Sega Ages: Virtua Racing with new information and screenshots.
I hope you can choose music tracks from other versions, the "Replay" song in the master system version is one of my favorite video game songs.

The September 2018-announced Sega Ages: Virtual Racing will launch for Switch via the Nintendo eShop this spring in Japan with support for online races and up to eight-player local split-screen races, the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu reveals.
Online races are one-versus-one battles. Your opponent’s status is displayed via picture-in-picture.
Local races support up to eight players, and you can set five-lap and 20-lap race rules.
Yes indeed a beautiful remaster of an amazing arcade racer.
Sega need to release this on PS4 asap
SEGA Rally and Daytona USA would be perfect follow-ups. Only way to play an arcade-accurate USA is either for 360/One or PS3, so it's been a while.
M2 are freaking genius
