Wangan Midnight R

Wangan Midnight R is a racing arcade game that was released by Namco in 2002; it runs on Namco System 246 hardware, and as its name suggests, it is the first sequel to Wangan Midnight, which was released in the previous year. In addition to all the cars that were selectable for the original game, the CPU-controlled opponents' vehicles from it have also been made available for selection, including the hidden one "Devil-Z" - and to select one of them after inserting a coin, a player has to step on the gas pedal while turning the steering wheel in either direction (however, some of them may not be selected unless certain conditions have been met). As in the original, the game has three modes; Story Mode, Time Attack Mode and Versus Mode (for the last of these, a 5-minute one-game sub-mode has also been added, along with an untimed single-game one and an intrusion-only one), but several balances like the trailing car's acceleration have been readjusted so players may enjoy racing each other more.
