The fIrst one, THIS, was never released in US or Europe.

Second one was, and in Europe (not in US) was titled as if it was the first one, not a sequel.

SD 2 Was a more complete game. First one was very basic.
I always thought that would be a series. Like Super Mario Kart eventually was (after Sonic Drift got this second. SM Kart only had one title by then, until the end of 1996).

Sonic R was like a "pseudo" 3D sequel... but eventually SEGA recovered the idea with the modern "Sonic Racing" series games.

Huh, this is interesting, never knew in Europe it was called Sonic Drift Racing, guess the Sonic Racing brand goes all the way.

Thank you very much for that information about the game.

I thought it was the second game that had rubber banding. Poor memory on my end I guess lol

Honestly I played this GG game but through Sonic Mega Collection Plus on PS2 and I was not convinced because for being the first Sonic Drift I feel it is very limited in terms of content, simple gameplay and also that it has a notorious Rubberbanding AI that makes it a task to try to stay in first place in several races because some opponents go faster than you, although this port of GG2SMS improves somewhat over the original and it is by field of view that it is wider than in the Game Gear version and makes it more visible and somewhat more playable but it has fewer colors but it is the least of it.

This is one of the more recently updated GG2SMS hacks, though it still isn't perfect.
