This article has a talk page!The Getaway: High Speed II is a 1995 adaptation of Williams' 1992 pinball table, itself a sequel to 1986's High Speed (which was itself adapted to the NES in 1991 by Rare).
Does any of that make this a sequel? Maybe? No?

There is an unreferenced display resource at $02:4EE1 in the ROM (near the beginning of the displaying routines itself), which consists of two messages. The resource probably has an incorrect structure or is intended to be displayed by the game in a non-standard way. It is unknown where it should be displayed.

Though the box indicates Super Game Boy support, the final game has its SGB features disabled, a bit of false advertising that somehow managed not to provoke a lawsuit. After editing the Super Game Boy flag in the ROM at 0x146 to 0x03, it becomes clear why it wasn't enabled: it was never finished and simply uses the border and rather grassy palette from PGA European Tour, another Unexpected Development game.

The border and palette were likely put in as placeholders until the proper ones could be made, which ended up not happening.
