This game was Sega's attempt for competing with Nintendo's Mario Kart 64. Sonic R has great music and large courses, but with only 5 courses and moving and turning combined into one button, Sonic R isn't that great. But since it's so hard to find, make sure to keep a copy if you have one. It's valuble, it wasn't suppose to be released in North America, and it's worth a great deal of money as well.
