Play Super Sprint Online

Super Sprint came out on the NES in 1986, a home port of the Atari Games arcade cabinet. It was part of that wave of straightforward, competitive games that thrived on the system, built more for quick sessions with friends than a deep solo campaign.

You control a tiny race car from an overhead view, steering it around tight, obstacle-filled tracks against computer opponents or a second player. The main goal is simple: finish first. You collect wrenches scattered on the course to upgrade your car's top speed, acceleration, or handling; you also dodge hazards like oil slicks and, on some stages, tornadoes that can spin you out. The races are short but intense, and the computer drivers are fiercely competitive, making every mistake costly. It feels frantic and immediate, a pure test of reflexes and track memorization.
