Aqua Jet is a marine sports game released by Namco Limited (current Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.) in 1996. This game stood out at arcades at the time thanks to its large jet ski-style cabinet. Savor the thrill of racing across shimmering waves under the blazing sun in a stunning, resort-like setting brought to life by the System Super 22 hardware!
The Arcade Archives (ACA) series faithfully reproduces classic arcade game masterpieces, staying true to its original. You can customize game settings to your liking, such as adjusting the difficulty level, and depending on the title, even recreate the nostalgic atmosphere of CRT TVs back in the day. Additionally, you can compete for high scores with players from all around the world through online rankings.
