Play Nigel Mansell's World Championship Racing (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) Online

Game Overview

Ever wanted to feel what it was like to be Nigel Mansell in his 1992 F1 glory days? This NES racer actually gets pretty close—for an 8-bit game, anyway. You’ve got all the real tracks from that season, including Monaco’s ridiculous hairpin turns, and the cars handle way better than you’d expect from a cartridge this old.

The split-screen two-player mode is where things get properly chaotic. My friend kept shoving me into the barriers at Suzuka, and I’m still not over it. The AI isn’t much kinder—they’ll squeeze you into walls the second you let up. It’s got that classic arcade feel where you’re constantly wrestling the controller, but in a good way.

Honestly, the graphics are charmingly janky by today’s standards (those grandstands look like LEGO bricks), but the engine noise somehow makes up for it. You’ll catch yourself leaning into turns like it’s going to help. Just don’t expect modern assists—this is pure, unforgiving ‘90s racing.
