Overview

Virtual Kyōtei 21 is a simulation of kyōtei boat racing, a follow-up to the previous year's entry and the last title in Nichibutsu's long-running series. It features an official license from the Japan Motor Boat Racing Association, as well as the Racer's Association, including the names and stats of over 1600 real-life racers as of the beginning of 2001. The main career mode from the previous games has been replaced with a new story mode called Four Stories, where the player selects one of four characters each with a unique backstory and scenario, and follows their individual career story; for example, Kentaro wants to prove his worth to his father, while Yuko is a racing prodigy who has lost her confidence following an accident during a race. Quick Race mode, in which the player can set up a customized race field and simulate the race to see the results, also returns. There is also a database mode where the player can review kyōtei terminology and view an introduction to each stadium.
