R.C. Pro-Am is an isometric racing game with vehicular combat developed by Rare and published by Nintendo for the NES. Racing a radio-controlled car around overhead tracks against three rivals, players collect weapons like missiles and bombs, grab tires, engine, and turbo upgrades, and must finish in the top three to advance across 32-plus tracks. Collecting the letters spelling “Nintendo” earns a better car.
