VR Virtua Racing

Virtua Racing is Sega’s first ever 3D, polygon-based racing game. The game
consists of racing Formula-1-looking cars around a beginner, intermediate, or
expert track, competing against a second player or computer drivers. Despite
having Formula-1 cars, the game controls are very “arcadey” and players can
see the leap they made from here to Daytona.

The Megadrive/Genesis version of Virtua Racing is of note as it is the only
game for the system which features the SVP chip (Sega Virtua Processor). The
chip is a 3D processor built into each cartridge (the console itself had no 3D
capability) and is very similar to the SNES’s SuperFX chips, used in games
such as Starfox and Stunt Race FX.
