About

Densha de Go! Shinkansen: Sanyoushinkansen-hen (loosely translated to "Go by Train! Shinkansen: Sanyou Shinkansen Edition") is an electric train driving simulation game developed and published by Taito for the PlayStation 2 in Japan on September 20, 2001. It was later ported to the PC by Unbalance on December 13, 2002. A spin-off of the Densha de Go! series, Shinkansen focuses on the titular high-speed rail line San'yō Shinkansen (through the entire route both ways, between Shin-Ōsaka and Hakata). The game was later ported to the Wii as Densha de Go! Shinkansen EX: Sanyoushinkansen-hen (loosely translated to "Go by Train! Shinkansen EX: Sanyou Shinkansen Edition") on March 1, 2007. This version features a new "Kids Mode" utilizing the Wii Remote's motion control.
