About — The Pioneers of Car Games
The 1970s: Birth of the Arcade Racer
The first generation of car video games emerged from electro-mechanical arcade machines, evolving into purely digital experiences. These games focused on creating a basic sense of speed and avoiding obstacles.
Gran Trak 10 (1974)
- Significance: Widely considered the first arcade video game to feature cars and racing.
- Innovation: Introduced the use of a steering wheel, accelerator pedal, and a four-position gear shifter, setting the standard for arcade cabinet controls.
- Perspective: Utilized a simple top-down, fixed-screen view.
The 1980s: The Golden Age of Scale
This era saw massive technical leaps, introducing color, sophisticated scaling, and more realistic racing dynamics, establishing the blueprint for modern racing games.
Pole Position (1982)
- Significance: A monumental hit that defined the modern racing genre.
- Innovation: Featured the first racing track based on a real-world circuit (Fuji Speedway) and pioneered the use of a qualifying lap. Its color graphics with sprite scaling created a convincing third-person, behind-the-car perspective, a view still used today.
