"Sadly, I'm not sure there's much that can be said of Ridge Racer – it's devoid of notable content. After just a few hours I was sick of the tracks available, and it didn't help knowing that I could just boot up my 3DS and take the superior Ridge Racer 3D for a spin. While the core mechanics are solid and the gameplay is as great as ever, you need tracks to race in, especially if the game features an element of RPG progression. Avoid this product; it's an affront to gamers and undeserving of your hard earned cash."
June 2025 is packed with new racing video games releases, as the Switch 2 is set to dominate the discussion.
This will be the first time the original 1993 arcade Ridge Racer has appeared on home consoles.
I hear rumors that Evercade may also be getting a Namco Arcade cart with RR and Tekken on it. That would be sweet as their previous Namco Console carts have also recently been updated to work on the VS. Previously, they only had the license to the handheld. so the OG Evercade and the EXP and even the Alpha were supported, but not the VS.
Ridge Racer DS was part of a campaign to have the Nintendo DS' touchscreen redefine input, with mixed results.
