Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing proved to be one of the best kart racers of this generation when it was released in early 2010. Sega and Sumo Digital refined the experience in last year’s Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Despite consoles and PC getting this newest title, Android gamers will have to settle with a port of the original three years after the fact.

Sega announced today that the original Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing is finally available on Android devices. There’s no reason given for Sega’s decision to port the original game over its sequel, but it may have something to do with how the original game is less complex than its sequel.

Even if it is the original game, it’s still a pretty fun. Let’s just hope the touch-screen controls don’t get in the way.

If you want to try it out for yourself, it’s currently available on Google Play for $1.99. If you picked up a new iPhone 5S or iPhone 5C today, you can grab the iOS version here.
