Cruis'n is a series of racing video games developed by Eugene Jarvis for American based company Midway Games, and published by Nintendo. The series debuted in North America, and Europe in 1994. Initially, the series was exclusive to the fifth generation consoles and was brought back later in the seventh generation video game consoles by 2008. The games consist mainly of racing with various cars on various tracks, and to some extent, including stunts in races.

Cruis'n USA was released for the Arcade in 1994, then later for the Nintendo 64 on December 3, 1996. This game was developed by Midway Games and published by Nintendo. The race starts in San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge and ends at the White House in Washington, D.C. The objective in this game is to outrun nine different cars in fourteen different levels. In the Nintendo 64 version, the first time you play all the levels are locked except for the U.S. Route 101. Along the way you can race in different difficulties to unlock new paint jobs and upgrades. The Nintendo 64 version can save different accounts by using the Game Pak. Both the Arcade and Nintendo 64 versions allow two players to race on each course or cruise the U.S.A.
