Retroware TV - Turbo by Sega - Episode 10 Part 1

[DjReietto]

Hello! i have the standup version of this game, and its in my garage, why im commenting now is because it has no motherboard, i was wondering if you knew where to find them? or if its just one :it? I have worked very hard on this machine, it has a new steering wheel, a new pedel, a new power source, heat sync, ect, but i cannot find a motherboards, please help!

[RetrowareTV]

@DjReietto Best bet is a arcade forum like KLOV.com Check their forums out, there are tons of peeps selling PCBs on there and you can let peeps know your looking for one in the WTB forum. Someone is selling an untested one right now actually. I may have an additional working set too that I would need to test.

[DjReietto]

@RetrowareTV Lovely, im on the forum site, but i cant post because theyre regulating me...i cant post unless i donate (which i havnt gotten around to yet xD) or get reffered......if your willing to test that one for me i would deff be willing to buy!

Just a note - you said the control panel is the exact same in the cockpit, but it's not - the gear shifter is a meachnism nearly twice the size that lives on the seat, and it has an LED RPM/MPH readout and one lit dial.

I've got the mini, I'm still trying to fix it up and get it working.

I like your review, I have owned both the sit down and upright of Turbo, and a Sega Monaco GP sit down also.

[RetrowareTV]

@ArcadeGames Thanks man, yeah I really like the Monaco GP sitdown.

[Danbotology]

I had the board game of this! I'm pretty sure it's still in my nan's cupboard somewhere.

[RetrowareTV]

haha, I never played the board game. I actually found it new on ebay for like 8 bones sealed but kind of don't want to open it now.

[Danbotology]

It's a pretty cool board game! But best not to open yours if it's sealed- may be worth a lot one day!

@RetrowareTV

It may became more valuable the older it gets if you never break the seal on it.

I've got Turbo on the Colecovision with module 2 I came across upright and cockpit cabinets in the arcade but don't remember the cabaret version

[Tenspeeder]

I found this game at a restaurtant in Edmonton...what a classic!

[Atomicskull]

This game used a weird analog sprite scaling system (also used by Subroc and Buck Rodgers) The scaling in MAME isn't as good as the arcade version's

[braineaterknux]

Nice review, it looks pretty entertaining (kinda reminds me of F-Zero)

[JPPT1974]

Don't you just love old-school games!?

[elvisapresley]

Very in depth review. Nice work.

[danytoon]

I wish to see a second part of this episode, talking about "SPEED RACE" and "MONACO GP"...

Enduro for the Atari 2600 doesn't seem so original anymore.

[everyonelovesbutters]

to a 5 year old playing turbo on the colecovision,, that steering wheel was just the right size,, and it could spin the full 360 sdegrees.,, sadly that headphone jack where u plug the pedel in go damaged from playing with the controller on my lap insted of on a stable table.

[nesplayer94]

Sega was king of arcade games!

[Cyborcat]

Heh--the controller pedal makes me think of a sewing machine.

[RetrowareTV]

OMG, I never thought of it like that.... YOUR SOO RIGHT, I was laughing out loud at work when I read that comment, it's soo true. Good catch Cyborcat

[maz12004]

Amazing for 1981. Seriously amazing.

[odetofall1]

[ChibiFighter]
