I would say Street Fighter 2010 would fit... I doubt you'll have much trouble finding games to fit that description if you make it a little more clear as to what you're looking for.

If The Death Race 2000 the movie qualifies then there is a game of roughly the same title "death race"; I am unsure if they're related -jack http://www.bredberg.org/nes/bestGame.php

It was one of his books that the Snes game Shadowrun was based on.

I believe it was a 16-bit era game (Genesis or SNES). Or my personal "cyberpunk" favorite, 'Blackthorne' for the SNES and (recently remade for) GameBoy Advance. Don't know of any more NES though. Maybe 'Time Lord'? http://www.playthenes.com
