Qualifying will enable the player to start in one of the eight available positions. The faster the lap time was, the better the starting position in addition to bonus score points. The number one starting position, is the Pole Position. Pole Position is a racing game; you're a Formula 1 driver, and you want to become champion.

Sounds easy, and it is. There's no plot or track selection, just simple racing on pre-defined racecourses. Every new track has more turns, some of them quite sharp, which makes it more difficult to get to the finish line. Driving in this game is very easy. You can define keys to control acceleration, braking, turning left and right, and switching gears your car only has two. Unlike the European version which was exclusive to the European market, the re-release was distributed worldwide and cannot be qualifed as an European exclusive title packaging wise.

That "Thermonuclear Soft" release looks a little I wonder if it was officially licensed? Scott, I know what you're referring to with garbled graphics of the flag since it's evident in all file versions but not say, Pole Position Race Designer or similar hacks. You're playing a corrupt version of the game where the checkered flag is glitched. There is a real glitch in the game in that you never actually reach the finish line at the end of a race!

You also will finish the race even if you crash right before the finish line! Received this cart for X-mas in Sure, the graphics are blockier than the arcade version, but it played very well and saved me many quarters. The game isn't that watered down, aside from not having voice synthesis or graphics on the signs, and a few minor bits that didn't detract from the enjoyment.

I guess there's a bit of an Easter egg in the game, but it's nothing major. If you fall short of the finish line when it's in sight on your final lap, you see "curse" words.

It's just random characters like you in the comic strips when a character swears e. Playing this on an emulator has a quirk, when you turn off the collision detection.
