POLE POSITION is a classic 1982 arcade racing game by Namco. It became the highest-grossing arcade game in Japan in 1982 and the most popular coin-operated game internationally in 1983. In North America, it was the top-grossing arcade game in 1983 and 1984, and remained in the top five in 1985.

Known for its third-person perspective, smooth graphics, and realistic driving mechanics, POLE POSITION is one of the most influential racing games in video game history.

Jacob G. ★★★★★

The steering and gas pedal inputs feel tight and responsive, which makes chasing those qualifying times genuinely addictive. I’ve lost more evenings than I care to admit trying to shave off a single second on the same track.

Robert P. ★★★★★

I’m still amazed this game made me feel like I was back in 1983, and the way the coin-op action ramps up in difficulty keeps me coming back for just one more run. The graphics are blocky but that’s exactly the charm I wanted, and it plays smooth as silk on my setup.

William N. ★★★★★

The steering wheel physics nail that old 1982 arcade heaviness, and the way the timer pressure builds in later laps actually made my palms sweat like I was back at the mall arcade. I've sunk a solid week into it and the authentic Namco polish still keeps me coming back for one more qualifying run.
