Play Nakano Kouichi Kanshuu - Keirin Ou (Japan) Online

Game Overview

Ever heard of Keirin Ou? It's this weirdly addictive SNES cycling game that never made it outside Japan, and honestly, that's a shame. You're thrown straight into those banked velodrome tracks, pedaling like mad while trying not to get boxed in by the pack. At first, it feels like just mashing buttons to go faster, but then you realize there's actual strategy—tucking behind riders to save stamina, timing your final sprint so you don't burn out too early.

The pixel art nails the chaos of a real keirin race, with cyclists jostling for position and the crowd animations making it feel alive. And that soundtrack? Pure early '90s energy. It's one of those games where you lose half an hour just trying to shave milliseconds off your time. If you dig obscure sports titles or just want something different from the usual SNES lineup, give this one a spin.
