Quick Update…This game has been sold to a new arcade collector. I also sold the Frogger to another new collector. It’s good to see more people interested in joining such a fun hobby. Enjoy the games, guys!

On the heels of my last game sale, I am also listing my Sega Turbo for sale this week. I’ve had the Turbo for a very long time, and it’s been a great game. With the acquisition of Monaco GP and the repair of my Pole Position 2, I think I have too many racing games. Got to make room for some of my other games which are taking up way too much space in my garage!

The Turbo has been the kids’ favorite in the gameroom for several year, only surpassed by the Monaco GP because it is a cockpit cabinet and is fun to drive in. Turbo is the first color arcade game to provide a “3D” perspective in its gameplay. It is the unofficial sequel to Monaco GP. I remember when Turbo first hit the arcades in the 80s. It was a huge hit. Coleco purchased the home console rights to this game and created an “expansion module” racing controller to bundle with the game. It was a great home version. Both the arcade and console versions are still a ton of fun to play!

The cabinet is in fantastic shape. It is all original. The artwork looks great. There is a very large subwoofer in the cabinet that sounds amazing when driving through the “tunnel” scene. This game would be a great addition to any racing themed home gameroom!

I’m asking $400 OBO for this machine. It’s been a great machine for me for several years. Please send me an email if you are interested in purchasing this game.

How I got it:

Picked it up in my March 2000 bulk purchase. Works great, and the monitor looks fantastic. Glad it does because it has a special monitor. The side art has some large scratches, and the cabinet needs a good cleaning. But, the game is in great condition overall. The high score LED’s all work fine. I read somewhere on the net that these are troublesome. Anyone who knows about some of the issues with Turbo, let me know. Just won an Ebay auction for an original Turbo Flyer. I would like to get a nice original flyer for each of my games!

Recent repairs:

Repaired the shifter so that it would stay in gear. It actually was held up by some nylon rubbing on the shifter. Had to adjust it and it works fine. Also realigned the accelerator pedal for better control.

What it still needs:

Not much right now. A new light bulb for the marquee, and a better cleaning than what I did.

Final Thoughts:

The first real race game I played as a kid. I love Monaco GT also, but heard they are tough to fix. This game will probably hang around the collection for a while. The subwoofer effect is great! Especially in the tunnel.
