"Anecdotal"
A port of the founding 1995 cabinet, this title revives one of the most memorable racing soundtracks of the arcade. Its pioneering themes, cheerful synth riffs and chanted refrains, defined the sound of arcade rally before all others, while the famous announcer's voice punctuates corners and finishes. A raw melodic simplicity, laden with nostalgia, that stays etched in a generation's memory.

"From the very first seconds"
Arcade racing in its purest form: three tracks, surfaces that change the grip and drifts to tame to claw back every second. The thrill comes from wheel-to-wheel battles and a timer crumbling away. Raw sensations, instant handling: this rally arcade monument is still a treat with a pad in hand, even more exhilarating with several players.
Complete: box, manual and disc/cart very clean. Lightly handled.

Is Sega Rally Championship still worth playing in 2026?
An adaptation of Sega's legendary arcade rally game, Sega Rally Championship stays a genre reference for its revolutionary surface handling, where going from tarmac to dirt then mud instantly transforms grip and driving. The sense of sliding, the snappy pace and the immediate joy of the races make it a timeless classic, exhilarating in a duel. The thin arcade-inherited content weighs a little. An excellent racer for fans of arcade rally and off-road driving in multiplayer.
