Nakajima Satoru Kanshuu F1 Grand Prix is one of those old-school Sega Genesis racers that somehow nails the tension of F1 without all the fancy graphics. The first thing you'll notice? The cars handle like they're on ice if you floor it—took me a few spins (literally) to figure out braking before turns actually helps.

It's got that classic early '90s charm: chunky sprites, a soundtrack that sounds like a MIDI fever dream, and AI opponents that don't mess around. The pit stops are weirdly satisfying too—timing them right feels like solving a tiny puzzle mid-race. And yeah, it's tough. You won't just breeze through Monaco on your first try.

If you're into retro racers that demand patience, this one's a solid time capsule. Just don't expect it to go easy on you.
