What is Taito Memorial - Chase H.Q. - Secret Police?

This is Taito Memorial - Chase H.Q. - Secret Police, a Japan-exclusive Game Boy Color port of Taito's classic arcade racing game. It was released as part of the Taito Memorial line, a series that brought older Taito hits to Nintendo's handheld. If you grew up with the original Chase H.Q. in arcades, this version aims to replicate that experience on a smaller screen, though with the expected visual and performance compromises of the era. The game puts you behind the wheel of an undercover police car. Your job is to chase down fleeing criminals within a strict time limit. You accelerate, steer, and ram into the target vehicle repeatedly until their health drops to zero. The road scrolls forward automatically, and you must dodge civilian traffic while keeping your speed up. Each successful capture earns points and advances you to the next stage, with tougher opponents and tighter deadlines. It is a straightforward arcade-style chase game that captures the core loop of the original: high-speed pursuit, limited time, and satisfying crashes. It is not a deep or long experience, but it has a certain pick-up-and-play charm that made the arcade version a hit. If you enjoy retro racing games or want to see how Taito adapted their coin-op titles to the Game Boy Color, this is a neat piece of the company's portable history to try.

How to play Taito Memorial - Chase H.Q. - Secret Police online

Getting Started When you boot the game, you will see a title screen with Japanese text. Press Start to begin. The main menu likely offers options like start, continue, or settings, but since this is a Japanese release, the menus are untranslated. Look for the first option (usually highlighted at the top) and press X (A) to start a new game. Once in the race, the core loop is simple: follow the road, speed up, and ram the target car. The car in front with a flashing icon is your target. Use the D-Pad to steer left or right, and press S (B) to brake or reverse if needed. You have a timer counting down, so you must catch the criminal before it reaches zero. Each successful ram reduces the target's health bar; when it depletes, you win the stage. A few things to keep in mind: civilian traffic appears and must be avoided. Hitting them slows you down and can waste precious time. Also, your car can take damage if you crash into walls or other obstacles. If your car's health reaches zero, it is game over. The game is mostly about persistence and learning the timing of each chase. If you fail, you can continue from the last checkpoint using the Continue option on the menu.
