Mi Hun Che (迷魂車), more commonly known as BB Car (屁屁車) or eventually Ecstasy Car and Super Car (奇妙車) is a port of Rally-X, made for the Famicom by Hwang Shinwei in 1988. It was originally published by Chi Chi Toy Co., Ltd under the Mi Hun Che and Super Car title. Bar Car is a slight update released 3 years later, in 1991.

Overview

BB Car's gameplay. Note the PAC-MAN trails the car leaves behind in this round.

This game is a port of the arcade game Rally-X. The player drives around collecting flags and avoiding other cars until all flags have been collected. They can attack the cars by dropping trails which if the enemies crash into, they spin out for a few seconds. The player gets 3 lives and no continues, and a limited amount of fuel which decreases quicker while trails are being dropped. The graphics are similar to Rally-X, but downgraded at points with the HUD being at the top of the screen as opposed to the right. The explosion upon losing a life appears as numerous tiny squares dotted around the player's car along with the music appearing to freeze briefly. Oddly, the car's trails' graphics change every level. The music isn't from the arcade game or any of Hwang Shinwei's other games, and its origin is unknown.

Trivia

• The Chinese title (which is also shared by Sachen's own port of Rally-X called Jovial Race) is what Rally-X is called in Chinese territories.
• Super Car has the music slightly reworked compared to the original release.
• BB Car features more elaborated music, a level select and removes some of the in-game copyright text found in the border of some stages.
