Gameplay

Like Top Skater, the Sega Water Ski machines use a foot controller, and the gameplay is also similar. The cabinet design was also similar to Top Skater. The gameplay focuses more on doing stunts on ramps under a time limit.

Rarity

Sega Water Ski is a rather rare Sega arcade game, like The Ocean Hunter and Sega Ski Super G are. However, the game sold a lot of units worldwide.

Official Soundtrack

A soundtrack containing music from this game and Motor Raid was released on January 21, 1998 by Marvelous Entertainment. It is also very rare.

Reception

In Japan, Game Machine listed Sega Water Ski on their November 1, 1997 issue as being the seventh most-successful dedicated arcade game of the year.[1]

gollark: It's one of the 31 bots on that server.
gollark: Most of the ones I tried would leave *eventually*, except apparently MEE6 and Pancake.
gollark: Yes, highly advanced.
gollark: I use the browser version for mostly unrelated reasons.
