R.C. Pro-Am Ultimate

R.C. Pro-Am Ultimate (also known as R.C. Pro-Am Recharged in Europe) is a fanonical racing game by Retro Studios released exclusively on the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS video game systems. It is a re-imagining of the original R.C. Pro-Am video games. It was released as both a physical copy and a downloadable title purchasable from the Nintendo eShop.

Gameplay
R.C. Pro-Am Ultimate features a contemporary gameplay engine, based on Diddy Kong Racing, but with some modifications to include the elements of the classic games that were released on the NES and Game Boy. The game is now presented in a third-person view, unlike the isometric view of the original games, along with the addition of a new powerslide maneuver that makes conquering tough corners easier.

Gameplay Modes

 * Single Race: Just a singular race in any of the tracks against computer-controlled opponents.
 * Time Trial: Set a fast course record on any of the tracks, and then challenge yourself to beat them!
 * Pro-Am Mode: Race against opponents in one of six gauntlets of five challenging racing courses each. The player with the most points at the end of a gauntlet is the winner.
 * Battle Mode: Battle it out in an enclosed arena. The racer with the most kills within the time limit is the winner!
 * Multi-Player Mode: Race against up to three human opponents, whether in a single race, Pro-Am Gauntlet, or a battle.
 * Online Multi-Player Mode: Go online and mix it up with other players from across the world, whether be it racing or battling! There is only one winner in the end, though!

Power-Ups
Power-ups can be acquired by driving into icons that represent them. Getting more than one of the same type of icon would give the player access to a stronger version of the base power-up.
 * Rocket: A single unguided missile that can be used to slow down enemy R/C cars.
 * Rocket Ten-Pack: A ten-pack of rockets that you can fire at more than one opponent.
 * Homing Missile: A single homing missile that flies to the nearest opposing racer. If an opponent is using this weapon, wait until the last moment, and perform a brief powerslide to dodge it.

 * Bubble Trap: Leaves behind a bubble that temporarily traps any racer caught in it for a second or two before popping.
