  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

A series of racing games known also in Japan as Shutokou Battle and dating to the SNES days, although the games never made it to the United States until the Saturn game Wangan Dead Heat came out in Japan (and it made it here as Highway 2000). It got more notice when the Dreamcast versions came stateside.

The main feature of the game is its free roaming environment (not introduced until the first Dreamcast game) and the "SP" system, in which both your car and the opponent's car have life bars that go down when either car is ahead or hits a wall/civilian traffic.

List of the games in the series (note, these are the ones that have been localized, The Other Wiki lists Japan-only releases and spinoffs):

  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer (Dreamcast)
  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2 (Dreamcast)
  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero (PlayStation 2)
  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 (PlayStation 2)
  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer: Drift (PlayStation 2, part of spinoff series Kaido Battle)
  • Tokyo Xtreme Racer: Drift 2 (PlayStation 2, also part of Kaido Battle)
  • Street Supremacy (PSP, known as Shutokou Battle: Edge of Control in Japan)
  • Import Tuner Challenge (Xbox 360, known as Shutokou Battle X in Japan)

The Tokyo Xtreme Racer series contains examples of the following:[]
