I wish there was a translation patch or a guide on GameFAQs because I seriously can't even beat Iketani. Anyone know how? |

Were you expecting something else? Group: Advanced Members Posts: 3,921 Member No.: 20,929 Joined: Oct 14th 2006 Location: Some place in South-East Asia | Here are screencaps of some of the options and notes on what they do. (NOTE: Not all of these techniques are available at the start of the game) Top: Other techniques Bottom: Heel-toe braking Top: Earlier braking (not sure about this one, but it does seem to be the slowest of the three) Middle: Accel-off Bottom: Normal braking Top: Braking drift Middle: Other techniques Bottom: Zero-countersteer drift Top: Normal braking (medium entry speed) Middle: Early braking (low entry speed) Bottom: Sudden braking (fastest entry speed of the three) NOTE: The game will make you brake differently for fast and slow corners, so sudden braking will work for both tight hairpins and fast sweepers. Top: Other techniques Middle: E-brake drift Bottom: Braking drift The E-brake drift only shows up on hairpins. You can use it without problems even when entering a turn from the inside at high speeds since you slow down a lot during the drift, making it great for hairpin overtakes but nothing more than that. This is the first drift technique acquired in the game. Top: Out-in-out Middle: Late-apex line Bottom: Inside cornering (inside-lane exit - don't use if you didn't slow down enough for the turn) Top: Line cross (you make a lane-change and try to overtake) Middle: Feint motion (think scandinavian flick - flicks your car to the outside lane before pointing it towards the upcoming turn) Bottom: Other techniques Top: Normal braking Middle: Early braking Bottom: Late braking (can be used to overtake on corner entry if the opponent's car isn't in your way, but remember that you'll be heading into the turn with a lot of speed and will likely not be taking it from the outside if you pull off the overtake) Top: "Tsukawa nai" (or however you space it - same thing as "other techniques") Middle: Outside-entry gutter run Bottom: Inside-entry gutter run If you can't read any Japanese characters, you'll have to rely on memory like I first did back when I couldn't read hiragana and katakana. Anyway, these aren't all the options, but I think they'll do for now. Hope this helps. Let me know if you didn't understand something, want a technique explained or need more help with the game. EDIT: Forgot to mention that the out-in-out line works best with normal braking. This post has been edited by Meteor on Jan 1 2012, 10:03 AM |

I believe that it came out way back in 2002, I don't know too much about the background and gameplay though. |

IDW's Corolla Rolla' Group: Advanced Members Posts: 503 Member No.: 13,208 Joined: Oct 2nd 2005 Location: [=(86)=] | That is correct. There is no english version of this game. I got my cartridge from an importer on eBay 5 years ago and I still play it. After a lot of trial and error, you will find out what options work best at certain points in each race. |
