Played this via the new Arcade Archives release on Nintendo Switch.

I used to play this all the time at a restaurant in a town in the middle of nowhere. They had this and an Addam's Family pinball machine. This has nothing to do with the game, I just thought it was a neat memory.

I still really enjoy going back to Pole Position II. It's simple, tough at times, but a very good racer. There are better old arcade racers but this just has a charm to it, down to the bit crushed voices.

Anytime I turn this game on, via the few methods I own to play it, I get a good solid hour of enjoyment of just playing this neat arcade racer. I think that qualifies it to be fun.

Get it? "Qualifies"? You see the joke is...
