Historical Trivia or Fun Fact
Cruis'n USA originally roared into arcades in 1994 under the direction of legendary game designer Eugene Jarvis, known for arcade classics such as Defender and Robotron: 2084. The game was famously promoted as part of Nintendo and Midway's early Ultra 64 partnership before arriving on the Nintendo 64 in December 1996. Its larger-than-life American road trip helped establish the Cruis'n franchise, paving the way for sequels including Cruis'n World and Cruis'n Exotica.
