Super Baken Ou '95 is a horse racing prediction and betting simulator. Unlike standard racing games that focus on the act of riding or managing a stable, this title functions as a specialized analytical tool. It allows users to input and track horse data to predict race outcomes, serving as a digital companion for enthusiasts of JRA (Japan Racing Association) horse racing.

BARCODE: 4988004900716
GAME ID: SHVC-A4TJ-JPN
Specifications: The game utilizes an 8-megabit cartridge.
Released on March 24, 1995 in Japan. It was never exported outside Japan.
Genre Niche: This title is a direct evolution of the Baken Ou series, which previously found a home on handheld platforms like the Game Boy. It occupies a niche utility genre where the goal is not "winning" a race in the traditional sense, but successfully predicting real-world race outcomes or managing virtual betting strategies.
The "Teichiku" Connection: Teichiku Records, a well-known music label in Japan, occasionally published niche hobbyist software and karaoke-related titles for the Super Famicom, making this a distinct (and somewhat unusual) entry in their software catalog compared to their primary musical operations.
Data Input Focus: The game allows for the input of up to 130 horses, reflecting its nature as a database-driven piece of software rather than an action-heavy title. It was marketed primarily to serious horse racing fans who wanted a dedicated platform for their data tracking on a home console.
