Monaco GP DescriptionAn overhead driving game where you try to beat the clock. During the game a player is given an unlimited number of cars (lives). Extended play is awarded once a player's score reaches a certain amount.Know anything more about this game? Cabinet InformationThe cockpit version has a very impressive sound system and it even includes a working tachometer. Both the mini and cockpit machines use an LED display for top scores and time countdown.Cheats, Tricks and BugsThe driver starts with 90 seconds. If he earns 2000 points before that, he can keep driving without a timer, until two crashes occur.Game IntroductionA player receives points based upon how fast the car is traveling. About eight points per second are awarded for being in low gear with the accelerator fully depressed while 25 points per second are received for being in high gear with the pedal in the same position.Game PlayThe goal is to beat the clock. The player basically has an unlimited number of cars, but it is nearly impossible to reach extended play except using high gear and not crashing.VAPS Arcade CensusGAMES OWNED, WANTED, or FOR SALE BY MEMBERS OF THE VIDEO ARCADE PRESERVATION SOCIETYCommon - There are 34 known instances of Monaco GP owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 32 of them are original dedicated machines, it is a conversion in which game circuit boards (and possibly cabinet graphics) have been placed in (and on) another game cabinet, and it is a set of circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired. Wanted - There are 2 VAPS members currently looking for Monaco GP. For Sale - There are 4 VAPS members with Monaco GP machines for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts. Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range. TechnicalThe game does not use a main processor. Supposedly it is entirely logic gates. The game's wiring harness is a rats-nest since there are many boards used for the game.eBay ListingsClick here to automatically search eBay's Arcade, Jukebox, and Pinball categories for the Monaco GP Videogame machine and items related to it.Click here to automatically search eBay's Arcade, Jukebox, and Pinball categories for machines and parts made by Sega/Gremlin.
