4sale : Ferrari F355 Challenge Deluxe 3 screens
« on: September 25, 2013, 10:21:36 PM »
...i went last week with a colleague to Jeutel/Eurofinatel to check their (new) pinballs, close to my workplace in Luxembourg, and they have a very nice Ferrari F355 Challenge Deluxe for sale.







Price to be discussed with Mr TEL himself, you can contact him here : http://www.jeutel.lu/index.php/en/

Normally 5-6000 eur, much cheaper than André's SW cockpit for 50.000. ;D

it is just that i don´t like ferrari from sega that much.
somehow i think it is one of their weakest games allthough the cab is just amazing. if it comes down to sega racing games i prefer daytona, sega rally or scud.

Seriously, I dont know the seller, is he selling at "retail" prices or does he actually want to sell the game? (It would need to be less than €1000 if he wants to sell.)

really? i would buy it within a second if it was under 1000? such cabs usually are offered for crazy prices in europe. 3000+.

most big racing cabs aren't that expensive because they take up so much room and few people have the room for it.

This one may a bit different though. I think it was only 4 years ago that I played one still in commercial use at Hommerson, Scheveningen. I recently saw one in operation at an indoor play area for kids.....although I truly wondered why they had exactly that game there.

The three screen setup gives a great feel of reality.

Also, F355 is a simulating game and not an arcade game. You can't compare it to Daytona etc. because those are true arcade racing games. It is almost the same game as on the Dreamcast and very much like console games of the era like Gran Turismo on the Playstation. (in fact, you can insert a Dreamcast module in the cabinet if you had F355 at home).
If you loose distance to the leaders in the race F355 doesn't brake the computer cars to bring you back to the front of the race. It's not forgiving.

So the game play doesn't suck, you guys simply can't drive  ;) ;) ;) ;D ;D ;D

However cool a three screen F355 might be, you can not compare it to the goddess of sit-down games !!

it offers not enough to be a real simulation. it is just a damn hard game on dreamcast and in the arcade if you ask me. :)
i did not like the gameplay that much and i am sure that it will not satisfy me in the arcade either. it is also not a game that people enjoy playing.
impressive cab... no question. :)

Hmm. if we talking about this cab and who can drive and who can't, I saw F355 last time on a gokart ring.
I'm a member of the Pata Negra racing team (Pata Negra is the best spanish restaurant in Budapest), we use ultra strong racing gokarts to practice. ;) ;D
