On the title screen, use the  🡨 ,  🡪 ,  🡩  and  🡫  keys to rotate the "R", and press Camera (default  1 ) to cycle through various colour schemes.

Rotate and zoom track models

In the track selection menu, press and hold  🡩  to make the track model bigger and rotate so you can view the model directly from above, and  🡫  to make the model smaller and view from side on. This functionality only appears to exist for track models, no other menu models can be controlled.

Play as the same character in VS mode

Hold Camera (default  1 ) while selecting a character.

Skip intro/credits screens

Hold Action (default  Space ) and press Accelerate (default  A ) on any intro or credits screen to instantly skip to the next screen. Doing this on the title screen skips to the demo rather than the main menu.

Holding Action (default  Space ) + Accelerate (default  A ) + Camera (default  1 ) and pressing Start (default  Enter ) on any credits screen will instantly skip all credits screens and return you to the Sega logo screen.

  • unlockgame: Unlocks Radiant Emerald track and all hidden characters except Super Sonic.
  • ignorecd: Disable CD check.
  • windowed: Play game in a 640x480 window.
  • path: Appears to do nothing.
  • allowdemorecord: Records the player's races to a file which can be replayed in the attract mode.

These command line parameters only work in the 2004 updated version of the game[1]
