City Connection

Is this the perfect arcade port of City Connection on the Sega Mega Drive? It sure looks like it! 🚗💨

City Connection is a fast-paced, high-flying arcade classic where you speed across platforms, avoid cops, and somehow paint the entire road while driving like a maniac. But how does this version hold up? In this video, we put the Mega Drive port to the test, comparing it to the original arcade version and seeing if it captures the magic of the 1980s classic.

Expect tight platforming, classic 16-bit visuals, and some truly questionable driving skills (seriously, why do I keep falling off?). Plus, with commentary throughout, we’ll break down what makes City Connection such a cult favorite and whether this Mega Drive version is worth your time today.

And because we’re all about retro gaming in style, we’re also checking out how it plays on MiSTer FPGA - because who doesn’t love a good hardware-accurate retro experience?

If you love arcade ports, classic platformers, or just watching someone struggle with pixel-perfect jumps, this video is for you!
