"3D Power Drift" for the Nintendo 3DS is a revitalized version of the classic arcade racing game originally released by Sega in 1988. This enhanced edition maintains the high-speed, kart-style racing that made the original game a hit, but adds modern enhancements such as stereoscopic 3D graphics and improved frame rates, which utilize the unique capabilities of the Nintendo 3DS to offer a more immersive racing experience. Players race through wildly imaginative courses, each packed with colorful graphics and challenging layouts, using a variety of characters, each with their unique vehicles that have distinct handling characteristics.

The game is notable for its history as part of Sega's illustrious line of arcade titles in the late 80s, known for pioneering the use of sprite-scaling technology to create a pseudo-3D effect. "3D Power Drift" on Nintendo 3DS was released as part of the Sega 3D Classics collection, a series that brought updated versions of classic Sega games to modern hardware with additional features like local multiplayer and online leaderboards. Additionally, it includes a selection of game modes that expand on the straightforward races of the arcade original, offering new ways to play and challenges to overcome, breathing new life into a beloved retro experience for both long-time fans and new players alike.
