Death Race

Death Race is a vehicular combat video game developed by American Game Cartridges for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), and published in 1990. It is a remake of a 1976 video game of the same name.

Death Race is one of three games that American Game Cartridges published for the NES. The others are Shockwave and a conversion of the 1986 light gun arcade game Chiller. They released all their titles in 1990. In Australia the game was distributed by Home Entertainment Suppliers, and was only available to members of their "HES Game Club".

Nintendo Player described Death Race as the "spiritual predecessor" of the Grand Theft Auto game series developed by DMA Design, which applies major gameplay elements from Death Race. BMG Interactive published the first Grand Theft Auto game in 1997.
