is a racing game released for the Nintendo 64 made by EA Games. Originally, EA had planned to create a racing game in the form of it’s popular Need for Speed series on the N64 before deciding on Beetle Adventure Racing. The game features 1970's dialoge and style music. This is a different kind of racing game as all of the vehicles are Volkswagen New Beetles, which were released the previous year. Paradigm Entertainment, which previously worked on a flight-simulator for the N64, was able to get heretofore unseen draw distances on the N64, and otherwise left Beetle Adventure Racing as one of the better looking games on the N64. Despite the use of real vehicles, the gameplay is much more in line with San Francisco Rush than it is with Gran Turismo, with an emphasis on shortcuts.
