SNES Series From the 90s Making a Comeback in 2025

In the year 2025, there’s an unexpected resurgence of a classic video game series from the 1990s, specifically Tokyo Xtreme Racer which first appeared in 1994. This was a time when console gaming was relatively new and not as widespread. Games like Final Fantasy VI, Donkey Kong Country, Super Metroid, DOOM II, Daytona USA, Tekken, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, X-COM: UFO Defense, NBA Jam, Ace Driver, Earthworm Jim, and others were also released that year. Interestingly, many Japanese games didn’t reach Europe and North America back then, and Tokyo Xtreme Racer was one of them. Despite its popularity in Japan, it didn’t make a significant impact in the west. The series went dormant in 2006, but there were only two mobile releases in 2011 and 2017 to break the silence. However, starting from 2025, this is changing.
