R.C. Pro-Am
(3.3)
3
1988
R.C. Pro-Am is a racing video game developed by Rare and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was released in North America in February 1988, and then in Europe on April 15. Presented in an overhead isometric perspective, a single player races a radio-controlled car around a series of tracks in vehicular combat. Each track qualifies its top three racers for the next track. Collectible power-up items improve performance, hazards include rain puddles and oil slicks, and missiles and bombs can temporarily disable opponents. Originally titled Pro Am Racing, it was ported to the Sega Genesis in 1992 as Championship Pro-Am, an enhanced remake with enhanced graphics and additional features. R.C. Pro-Am spawned two sequels: Super R.C. Pro-Am in 1991, and R.C. Pro-Am II in 1992.

This game doesn't hold up well, but I can see how it would have been a lot of fun had I played it as a kid.
The controls take some getting used to (but a lot of that can be attributed to the top-down view), but the game is pretty straightforward (two laps around the track with hazards to avoid and items to pick up).
Sadly, by today's standards though, it just gets tedious very quickly. Unless you have nostalgia for it or just really like racing games, this game probably isn't worth more than a cursory attempt.

It's fun enough, but it's one that has aged to the point where it just gets old fast. Plus I never really liked this type of racer where you kinda look down on the track. I would probably feel differently if I played this as a kid.
