Daytona USA Deluxe/Hidden content

Back to: Daytona USA Deluxe.

Windows PC version

The PC version of Daytona USA Deluxe hard codes the extra Saturn buttons required for these codes to the gamepad. It does not appear to be possible to perform these codes using the keyboard as these actions are not mapped there. These codes were tested using an x-box one pad with the following mappings:

Saturn Button / X-Box One pad Button

X / Y

Y / LB

Z / RB

L / SELECT

R / START

The x-box buttons are listed in the codes below

Unlock the 'Original Daytona' car

On the main menu, hold down +++ START  on the x-box pad and select 'arcade mode' by pressing  Enter . The original car from Daytona USA is now available for selection below 'Balance' in all play modes.

Unlock 'Uma' the horse

With 'Daytona' already unlocked, on the main menu, hold down ++ SELECT  on the x-box pad and select 'arcade mode' by pressing  Enter . Uma the horse is now available for selection below 'Daytona' in all play modes.

Unlock 'Uma2' the grey horse

With 'Daytona' and 'Uma' already unlocked, on the main menu, hold down ++ START + SELECT  on the x-box pad and select 'arcade mode' by pressing  Enter . Uma2, the grey horse is now available for selection below 'Uma' in all play modes.

Note that all three of these codes remain unlocked after you close the game, you only need to enter them once.

Mirror mode (direct draw version only)

On the track select screen in any play mode hold down ++ on the x-box pad and press  Enter  to select your track. The words 'Mirror Mode' will appear under the game type and the track will be mirrored left to right.

Note that with the direct 3d patch, mirror mode is available as a standard option after you select a track so this code is no longer required.

Change time frame (direct draw version only)

Holding buttons on the "GENTLEMEN START YOUR ENGINES" screen will cause the time of day to change:

: twilight

: midnight

: midsummer

+: flood-lit

+: dawn

Note that with the direct 3d patch, the time frame can be selected as part of the track select menu so this code is no longer required.

Flying car

Hold + START  on the "GENTLEMEN START YOUR ENGINES" screen. Then when the race starts, you should have a hovering car. As you pick up speed, your height above the ground increases, eventually letting you fly over your opponents (though you will fall back down to Earth if you hit anything).

Easter eggs

All Saturn championship circuit edition Easter eggs are present in this one too.

• Slot Machine on beginner course (press to stop the reels)
• Hidden message up the ramp on the intermediate course
• Jeffry statue on the expert course (press to get him to do a backflip)
