{{nihongo|'''Super Hang-On'''|スーパーハングオン}} is a motorcycle [[racing]] [[arcade]] game released by [[Sega]] in [[1987]]. It is a sequel to the acclaimed [[Hang-On]]. It uses a fully simulated motorcycle arcade cabinet, like the original game. The content is to reach the finish line while riding a motorcycle and passing the checkpoints within the time limit. The length of one stage is about half the time of the previous work ''Hang On'', but the number of stages has increased significantly. | |||
The arcade mode in ''Super Hang-On'' is similar to the original ''Hang-On''. However, there is a choice of four tracks to race on which are based on continents, each containing a different number of stages. Also, should the player reach the normal maximum speed of 280 km/h, a turbo button is enabled. Using this button allows the player to reach an even higher top speed of 324 km/h. | |||
Africa is the easiest and shortest out of the four courses (six stages). Asia is the second easiest and is similar in length to the course from the original Hang-On at ten stages long. The Americas is the second to toughest course, containing 14 stages and Europe is the hardest course, being 18 stages long. When the player starts a race, they have their choice of four songs that will play during the race, a feature borrowed from [[Out Run]]. | |||
The [[Sega Genesis]] version of the game includes the full arcade game, as well as an original mode, which allowed players to recruit sponsors and earn money to buy enhanced components for their bike. The cover for this version has a bike and rider in the same colors as Shinichi Itoh, who competed in the All-Japan 500 cc Championship on a Rothmans Honda NSR500. | |||

This version would be released on Xbox Live Arcade in 2012 as part of Sega Vintage Collection: Alex Kidd & Co.
Another version of the game was released for the Nintendo 3DS via the Nintendo eShop in Japan on March 27, 2013. The game feature stereoscopic 3D and tilt controls which emulate the arcade version. This version was released for North America and Europe on November 28.
