F1 ROC II Race Of Champions (SNES) Review

SNES Racing games on the Super Nintendo are a bit of a mixed bag. There’s the obvious choices like Super Mario Kart, F-Zero, Top Gear or Rock and Roll Racing. But then it goes downhill fast. You got Stunt Race FX which is has a god awful framerate and slowdown.

Then there’s Uniracers which I guess is a racing game? I don’t know it’s unicycles for crying out loud! If you’re looking for something that mimics Gran Turismo on the Playstation, meet F1 Roc II.

F1 ROC II does have a ton to offer and is an excellent choice for a SNES racing game on the Super Nintendo. It isn’t just a blatant ripoff of F-Zero. You’ll need an FX Pak Pro or SD2SNES to give this a go if you don’t have access to a copy in your region. It uses one of the DSP Chips that a lot of flash carts don’t offer. It’s also fairly inexpensive if you try and find a loose copy on eBay. Give it a go any way you know how.
