Alex DeMeo's Race America adapts automotive racing to NES with American circuits crossing the states. The conversion keeps the behind the car perspective and road trip spirit but gameplay stays basic. Pleasant for 8 bit racing fans, original in the US tour concept.

Absolute Entertainment's transcontinental racer, a late 1990 release with narrow distribution that made it one of the priciest American NES titles loose, far beyond its standing as a game. The scarcity is real, rooted in this third party's small run at the tail of its catalog. Desirability rests almost entirely on supply difficulty, the game itself remaining minor.
