Ports
San Francisco Rush 2049 was ported to the Nintendo 64 and the Dreamcast in 2000 by Midway Games. The Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast versions, as in the original arcade version, contain Dickies and Slim Jim advertisements. When released under licence as Midway Arcade Treasures 3, the Slim Jim advertisements were removed and replaced with Midway Games logos. All console ports featured a variation from the arcade version, that being the addition of stunt wings. The arcade version did not feature the stunt wing ability, which allowed player to perform maneuvers in the air whilst gliding.
The game was planned for release on the PlayStation console but was cancelled.
San Francisco Rush 2049 was also ported to the Game Boy Color by Handheld Games and published by Midway Games. The tracks differ from the other versions whilst the cars are identical. The racing takes place from a top-down perspective.
Midway Games had plans to create a double pack for Hydro Thunder and San Francisco Rush 2049 under the name Hydro Rush for the PlayStation 2, but the game was canceled, with the project moved to Midway Arcade Treasures 3.

Famous quotes containing the word ports:
“All places that the eye of heaven visits
Are to a wise man ports and happy havens.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“When its errands are noble and adequate, a steamboat bridging the Atlantic between Old and New England, and arriving at its ports with the punctuality of a planet, is a step of man into harmony with nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It is true, we are such poor navigators that our thoughts, for the most part, stand off and on upon a harborless coast, are conversant only with the bights of the bays of poesy, or steer for the public ports of entry, and go into the dry docks of science, where they merely refit for this world, and no natural currents concur to individualize them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
