Off Road Challenge - Two-Player Mode (Actual N64 Capture)

[Note: This video and description were originally posted on Youtube on September 30, 2015.]

This is a capture of me and a friend playing Off Road Challenge for the Nintendo 64. This is not an emulator. This footage was recorded directly from my Nintendo 64 using an actual Off Road Challenge cartridge. I'm player one and Drew is player two.

Here's some footage of the two-player mode in this game. Like a bunch of other racing games on the Nintendo 64, Off Road Challenge doesn't allow two people to race against AI cars. Instead, you can only race against each other, which is really limiting. It would be a lot more fun if two people could complete the different circuits together, similar to SNES racing games like the Top Gear series.

Drew and I completed three courses using the Toyota Trophy Truck and Class 10 Heavy-Metal. I hadn't played this game in a couple years and Drew has possibly never played this game before, so we didn't race all that well. Also, I couldn't figure out which button allowed me to downshift (I used a steering wheel for my prior playthrough), so I had to leave the truck in fourth gear every time I crashed.

Recorded with the Hauppauge HD PVR and the official N64 S-video cable. I used a Toshiba model D-R550 DVD Recorder to upconvert the SNES's native 240p signal to 480i so that the Hauppauge could capture the console's audio/video signal.

We're using standard Nintendo 64 controllers.
