Its been over THREE YEARS since I started Unported Playlist to talk about some of my favorite retro gaming arcade games that never got home ports...and I wanted to revisit a handful of my favorite episodes to get them to a wider audience...because its one part video game history, one part video game preservation...and one part I just felt like revisiting these classic video games! Retro gaming revisits incoming!

On this episode we are looking back at Dirt Dash from Namco. Basically if you take the Ridge Racer formula, mix in some Sega Rally / Sega Rally 2...and have Namco make another arcade racing game with the DNA of Ridge Racer and the offroad racing style of Sega Rally...out pops Dirt Dash! And compared to the Ridge Racer / Rage Racer franchise...Dirt Dash is firmly in the rare and obscure retrogaming experience camp! It's one of my favorite racing video games of all time and I wanted to talk about it again!

Most every Namco video game got a port to home consoles (Ridge Racer, Tekken, etc) but for some odd reason...Dirt Dash never did. The System 22 arcade board was a powerhouse and you will see why here!
