Star Wars Episode One: Racer

We've all seen the movie, played the N64 Pod Racer game, then played the PC version and wet ourselves...now get ready for an entirely new pod racing experience in an arcade cabinet. We know you know that LucasArts has an Episode One racing game in the works for the Dreamcast, but keep in mind the arcade version is an entirely new game being developed by Sega. We've been told that the folks developing this racer is the same team that was responsible for Sega Rally 2 on the Model 3. Don't expect a port to the Dreamcast either--this arcade racer is powered by a souped-up Naomi system, dubbed the Hikaru. Sega has not announced a U.S. release date yet.
