Player's Review

Daytona USA: Circuit Edition is the Third release of the game on the Sega Saturn. Released only in Japan in 1997.

The game is mostly the same as the US/EU release of Championship Circuit Edition, but this JA only release adds a few more tweaks to the game including control sensitivity (drift mechanic),the choice of original arcade soundtrack or the remixed music from the previous game and also the ability to add a day/night effect to your race. A Daytona medley lasts approx. 8 mins is also in the game made from the three original tracks but is not shown in this video.

This longplay is overkill in that I show the full progression needed to unlock the super car and the two horses. Yes I could have used cheats to show them but I wanted to show how you would get them legitimately. I also wanted to show the Hovercraft that is talked about on the segaretro and gamefaq sites but Ill be damned if I can figure out how to get it, if it really is in the game. There does not appear to be any screenshots or youtube vids of it in action. beating the game on Hard with Horse2 didn't cut it. Maybe the game needs completing in mirror mode, but even then you need to know the button combination(cheat) to make it happen.

00:00:00 All Five tracks completed on Normal. The game only seems to show the full ending credits after completing this mode. Daytona Supercar Unlocked.

00:31:05 All five tracks completed on Hard with Daytona Supercar. Unlocks UMA1. Each track shows a different weather mode. Original Daytona music also selected.

00:57:37 All five tracks played on Normal using UMA1. Unlocks UMA2.

01:24:00 All five tracks played on Hard with UMA2. No ending credits or anything unlocked that I can tell. Wasted effort??
