Nice! I didn't know the game was ever made. Reminds me of when I found a Q*Bert handheld little pinball style cardboard/plastic game at Goodwill.

Please post some pics of the game itself, curious to see what it looks like. Are most of the pieces there? How is it played? :)
 
I had this as a kid. It's where I learned that the inside of turns has less distance compared to outside turns. A basic concept and all, but that's where I made that discovery. It also, unfortunately, made me think that meant race cars should always take the inside to go faster.
 
Cool! We mainly played the Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Frogger, and Q*Bert board games back in the day. Funny how they try to build them up on the box - e.g. Pac-Man says "As much fun as the action-packed arcade game of the same name" .. right ..

That's cool, looks like it's in real mint condition. Does it have all the pieces still?

I had gotten a Berzerk board game during the summer, and looking to get others. Wizard of Wor at the top of my list, but they are super rare and expensive when found.

Had a SW'ed WoW once. Traded for a new 7800 with a pile of boxed carts. Never regretted it.

But if you think WoW's rare, try getting a hold of a Pooyan! I've been collecting and trading Pre-crash games and memorabilia since '95. I've seen a Pooyan board game once, in another person's collection.

But the Turbo's a good board game find; as rare as Pole Position or Zaxxon from the MB family of video board games. Kudos.
 
All the pieces were present and all in pretty good shape. 2 of the box corners were seperated but I was able to use some elmer's glue on the inside of the box and barely noticable. Me and my 9 year old played the game last night and I hate to say the game play is pretty lame. Boring to say the least. Probably a little more fun if 4 players play instead of 2.
 
Where was I? I don't remember any of the arcade game board games. That's quite a good condition piece even with the price tag to find at goodwill.
 
the price tag came off very easy so no damage to the box. Very Lucky becasue most of the times it ruins the box. Left it on fot the picture so everyone could see what I paid for it...
 
Some of those are really cool! I used to play the Centipede board game at my Grandma's house... I wonder if she still has it.
