HAMSTER has announced that this week’s Arcade Archives release will be the 1996 Namco title Aqua Jet, coming to Arcade Archives on Switch and PS4, and Arcade Archives 2 on Switch 2, PS5 and Xbox Series.
Aqua Jet is a marine sports game released by Namco (now Bandai Namco Entertainment) in 1996.
This game featured a large housing modeled after a personal watercraft, and attracted a lot of attention at game centers at the time.
Enjoy the thrill of running through a resort area rich in nature, the blazing sun, and the undulating water surface expressed by System Super 22
“This game stood out at arcades at the time thanks to its large jet ski-style cabinet,” says Hamster. “Savor the thrill of racing across shimmering waves under the blazing sun in a stunning, resort-like setting brought to life by the “System Super 22″ hardware!”
Aqua Jet was never ported to any home console in its original coin-op form.
