The original Testarossa is not in the game. This happened with Out Run in Shenmue II on Dreamcast and Xbox. Same with Out Run in the Yu Suzuki Game Works compilation on DC.

However now you can select different colors.

There are TWO NEW music tracks for the 3DS version.

It seems there's no framerate option as with the Sega Ages Saturn release (60fps Smooth Mode) so I'm assuming 3D Out Run runs at the original arcade 30fps.

Hopefully it defaults to 60 FPS. With M2 at the helm, it's certainly a possibility.

Even if it's not, with it being on a small handheld LCD, a nice smooth 30 FPS should be very pleasing.

I'll definitely buy this when it comes out to the north american e-shop.

I friggin love OutRun.

As cool as a definitive enhanced version of OutRun is though, what I'd really like to see is OutRun 2/SP/2006 Coast to Coast ported to the 3DS in 3D. The PSP got an excellent version, so I'm sure the 3DS is capable of even better.

I'd rather see Outrunnners and Turbo Outrun. :)

Just for the record, it's 60 FPS.

i'd like to see all of these "archive" titles out on a 3ds cart in stores.
