Hello everybody,

I've got a Super Monaco GP upright and I want to know if the steering wheel shakes or not (such as Power Drift / Out Run, upright version, for example) ?

The flyer doesn't give me any hint : maybe only the cockpit version has such steering wheel movement ?

Best regards,

well, it doesn't "shake" like outrun.
it's a variable-speed vibration that emulates
the engine RPM -- similar to Super Hang On.

side note: power drift has no shaker motor.

one weird thing i found out about SMGP:
during the attract, on the records page,
pressing START will display the ALL-TIME records
(which are saved) as opposed to the regular
list which is lost when shut off. not sure why
they did this, but i was happy to learn my greatest
records are up there!

awesome racing game once you get down the
tight physics of a formula one car.
 
hey it doesn't look like your machine has the fresnel
plastic that magnifies the picture by like 20%.


sort of like this:

it tries to be a poor man's 25" video in that respect.
works fine for the most part. i think the sitdown version of
roadblasters did this too. so did m.a.c.h. 3.
 
The Fresnel lens is here and very clean in fact (as new).
Another photos in order to better see :

The only missing parts are the following :
-original central logo (with the screw) for the steering wheel (I've got a reproduction)
-a few screws for the marquee
-the original manual
