About this product
Product Information
Riding Hero is a 2D motorcycle racing game that offers a view of the world from behind the rider. A background picture scrolls in the far distance to give a sense of depth, while the road edges and trackside items fly by to give players a sense of speed. The game includes two modes of play: a standard racing mode and a career mode.<br><br>In the standard racing mode, players participate in a race against several CPU motorcycle riders using one of four motorcycles. The goal is to pass all the CPU opponents and end up in first place. Career mode gives players a stack of money and sets them off on a quest to acquire the ultimate motorcycle. <br><br>Players start with enough money to buy the cheapest motorcycle in the game and must earn additional money by winning a series of races set in different locations. These races can take place anywhere, even on a busy highway. The career mode adds characters and a dialogue-driven story to tie the events together.<br><br>While racing, players can brake or accelerate and steer their motorcycles by leaning in the appropriate direction. Players also have a stock of turbo charges that can be used. Each charge lasts for a limited time and gives the motorcycle a speed boost.<br><br>Riding Hero is one of three Neo Geo games that support a link function between two Neo Geo consoles. With two consoles and two copies of the game, players can link them together using plugs on top of each cartridge. The link-up is not part of the Neo Geo's base hardware capabilities, but is enabled through the cartridge itself.Product Identifiers

Great arcade racing fun
The game is difficult as with any Neo Geo arcade game though. That said it’s great fun and the challenge keeps you wanting to try again and again. Highly recommend a memory card if you’re an AES owner so you can save your progress between levels.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
