If you’re keen to try it out for yourself, then I suggest heading here and reading through this entire thread, from the post it directs you to, and onwards. But I’m relatively confident it won’t be long before it’s playing flawlessly with a gamepad too – I just want to be able to fang around the courses like this: There seems to have been more work put in so far by the community into getting things working with wheels – I don’t have one, so I can’t comment on just how good the implementation actually is. If you’ve got a racing wheel, things are even better. It’s bright, colourful and the physics are spot-on. But even with the imperfect mapping, I can feel that this is the Daytona USA I know and love. I’m playing with a gamepad, and the controls are still too sensitive for me to be completely comfortable with.

Since then, the community around the game has stepped it up, and there are now fixes for the controls and various other things.Īwesome stuff, but for me at least, it’s not without issues right at the minute. Glitch-free and all! That was two weeks ago. So I managed to get my hands on this Daytona update, and followed these instructions to get it running.Īnd run it did.

While it wasn’t playable yet, it was now running on PC, and some of the controls did work in the menu. By then I’d be pushing 50, and my reflexes would be gone. It would be left in the arcades forever, at least until emulation caught up with it. So I COMPLETELY FLIPPED OUT when he released this video:ĭaytona Championship USA was a game that I’d never be able to play. I watch his channel closely, because he tends to get straight on to new developments within the community. Most of his videos are captures of various SEGA/Misc arcade racing games.Īlways completely relevant to my interests. MrThunderwing is a YouTuber I follow closely and watch like a hawk. The f ull game was contained within an update for arcade owners, who were able to download it directly from SEGA themselves to apply to their machines. Here’s some cool stuff I’ve been messing around with in the last couple of weeks!Ī couple of weeks ago, the internet cottoned on to the fact that SEGA had inadvertently released a complete version of Daytona Championship USA on their own website. So I’ve been pretty busy bringing you lot all the content I can, yet I’ve still managed to make some time for actual gaming.
