Super Chase - Criminal Termination/Stage 1

''As in Chase H.Q. (and S.C.I.), the proximity of the Nissan 300ZX T-Top Turbo to the criminals' cars is indicated by the radar display on the screen's right side with the Nissan 300ZX represented by a red dot and the criminals' cars now represented by a yellow one; however, if the Nissan 300ZX spins out or goes off the track, the criminals' cars will get further away from it again. It can also again be difficult to disable the criminals' cars before the time runs out if you expend all your Turbo Activator boosts before you reach them - and you may again pass one or more of the subsequent stages' target cars on this stage, but at this point they are just like every other non-target car, and ramming into them now will not register against them when you manage to catch up with them on the stages where they have become the targets. The distance between the Nissan 300ZX and the criminals' cars will also start at 1224; the amount of points you shall receive for each metre travelled also depends on what gear the Nissan 300ZX is driving in (10 for low gear, 100 for high).''

Welcome to the game. Once the camera has zoomed in on the Nissan 300ZX's front windscreen from behind, you shall have to step on the gas pedal to accelerate it, then shift it into high gear once it has reached 200 km/h (100 mph for the US version); you'll then have to turn to the left as you pass under a traffic light on the right side of the track (every time you turn the steering wheel on the cabinet, Broady will also turn the steering wheel on the 300ZX's dashboard, to reflect it!), turn to the right as you pass a police car and a wrecked black car on both sides of the track, turn to the right again as you pass another police car and wrecked black car on the left side of the track, turn to the left again as you pass four more police cars and wrecked black cars on both sides of the track, and drive into a tunnel. Once you have come out of the tunnel you will have to turn to the right as two more police cars drive into view on both sides of the track, the timer is extended to either 65, 50, 53, or 56 seconds (depending on how that "TIME SETTING" setting in the game's options menu is set) and the text "WE FIND THE CAR OF CRIMINALS" appears on the screen - and you'll then come to the stage's target car (which is indicated by an arrow with the text "REMAINING: 16" over it) as you drive into another tunnel (every time you ram the target car, you shall receive 5000 points, and the number over it will decrease by one). Once you've come out of the tunnel, you shall crash through three barriers and a "DANGER!" sign then drop off a cliff onto a beach; once you crash through two volleyball nets, the chase shall continue through a street (as you crash through two more barriers and pass under four more traffic lights on both sides of the track), a pizza parlour (as the Nissan 300ZX's windscreen is splattered with pizzas), a harbour (as you fly off the end of a jetty) and a park. Once the target car is down to three rams, the Nissan 300ZX's bonnet shall fly off, and once it is down to two rams, the Nissan 300ZX's windscreen shall shatter - and once its damage meter is completely filled, the camera will zoom back out on the Nissan 300ZX as the target car bursts into flames and stops (the last two police cars will also drive into view on both sides of the track again and stop).

The screen will now cut to a shot of Gibson arresting Ajmagl and M. Lscoa while Broady arrests K. Sktj and J. Jlrrs, and the text "YOU ARE ARRESTED ON CHARGE OF BREAKING IMPLEMENT AND THEFT!!" appears on the screen; the text "STAGE 1 COMPLETED" will then appear above it, and you will receive a "Clear Bonus" of 100000 points and a "Time Bonus" of 5000 points for every second you have remaining. The text "NEW ORLEANS" shall then appear on the screen with the texts of "DATE 08/08/93" and "03:18 PM" below it (followed by the Taito Monitoring System as Nancy appears on it):

I FOUND THE HIDE OUT OF THE TERRORISTS WHO SET OFF THAT BOMB.

A picture of the target jeep will then appear at the top of the Taito Monitoring System's screen with a map and the text of "TAKE YOUR ROUTE TO THE MOUNTAINS LOCATED AT A 300km DISTANCE IN THE NORTH DIRECTION FROM NEW ORLEANS." under it; the map's size shall then increase to fill the TMS's screen (with a flashing X marking the location of the unnamed terrorists' hideout and three flashing dots marking the location of the parked cars) as the text "THE CRIMINAL'S AGITATING POINT IS LOCATED IN THE HALFWAY UP THE MOUNTAIN AREA. 3 CARS ARE BEING PARKED." appears on it. The game will then proceed to the second stage - and the amount of time you'll have at the start of this stage again depends on what that arcade owner has set the "TIME SETTING" setting in the game's options menu to (SHORT: 53 seconds, STANDARD: 55 seconds, LONG: 58 seconds, VERY LONG: 61 seconds). It shall also see Gibson and Broady switching from their now-repaired Nissan 300ZX to a four-wheel-drive jeep of their own.
