Although this game is not well liked due to it's heavy focus on vehicle gameplay and lack of platforming. It is still a game from my childhood. I remember spending more hours in mumbos motors trying all kinds of part combinations to create everything from motorcycles to fighter jets than I did actually playing the levels. I spent so much time in the test o track just playing around with all the different vehicles I had made. I've been wanting to see a PC release of this game for many years due to the fact that I moved away from consoles over 10 years ago at this point. But unfortunately there has been no such release in the 18 years since this games release to Xbox. Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie aren't so much of a problem because they can be easily emulated. But no matter how hard I try I can not get nuts and bolts to emulate on my PC. So a GOG release of this game would help me re-experience a game from my childhood.

Wangan Midnight
Wangan MidnightWangan Midnight is the first video game adaptation based on the Wangan Midnight manga. The cabinet consists of two racing units with a chair and steering wheel. Similar to the concept of the Tokyo Xtreme Racer \ Shutokō Battle series, players roam the Metropolitan Expressway in Tokyo that has been divided into eight tracks. The Story mode adapts parts of the manga as the player's character seeks out and defeats increasingly challenging opponents. The player can freely roam the expressway with a traffic density that shifts according to the time of day. When an opponent is encountered the game enters a battle mode and the cars start to race each other. Each car has a life gauge, shown as an SP meter, that is drained for the trailing car. The race is over when time runs out or when one of the cars loses all SP. The other game modes are the Time Attack mode and a Versus mode played against another player locally. The available cars are licensed from manufacturers such as Mitsubishi, Nissan and Subaru.
