Talk:Daytona USA

message: Can anyone who's editing Daytona USA right now start an article on the hero racing team from this game? I searched for it tonight and it wasn't found. Does anyone know much about the Hornet cars in this game? --D.F. Williams 04:54, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Anyone know how i can get a working arcade version of this game?
:: I can think of only 2 options... 1. Find an arcade that has this game and offer them cash... 2. Find the Dreamcast Version and buy a Steering wheel set... --Biggman15 18:32, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

message: This statement at the top of the article is highly doubtful, and I am going to remove it.  While Daytona USA was certainly popular, it did not sell as many units as Pac-Man and other notable golden age hits and there are no numbers that I am aware of that show it took in more quarters than any other game either.  The "reference" used to prove the statement provides no information at all, as the author himself states that he has no figures to back up his assertion that it is the highest grossing game; he just figures it must be based on what information he has.  Unless a reputable source can back up this statement, it does not belong in the article. Indrian 00:40, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Highest Grossing Game of All Time?

message: It IS the highest grossing game of all time (hello ONE DOLLAR is more than ONE QUARTER!) If I need to, I will have SEGA confirm that with me. Ashura96 17:12, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: What did Sega have to say, and can they point to an official source outside your email inbox? For that matter, where did you get the original idea that it was the highest-grossing game of all time? -Ashley Pomeroy 17:54, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Seeing as how a local restaraunt has had a deluxe 1993 cab set up next to a twin 1994 cab for as long as I can remember, and that the 1993 cab displays all text in English and has a speedometer displayed in miles per hour, I'm fairly certain that the 1993 version was officially released worldwide and not exclusive to Japan as the current article seems to indicate.208.180.139.108 06:24, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  1993/1994 version 

message: The article currently states that car number 20 (MISS Tea) is a notable CPU opponent to watch out for, but I haven't seen a car with that number in the game. Cars number 21 and 14 (the latter of which only appears at the name entry screen) have MISS Tea as a sponsor though... Curiously, on the Beginner track, I notice that the leaderboard display beneath the start/finish line usually reports that car number 20 is indeed leading the race or at least in the top 5 after a few laps, but after some testing I have discovered that it is reporting the incorrect number for car number 69 (Car Ex).
As others have no doubt noticed, the ordering of the CPU cars at the start of the race begins with the highest numbered car in the pole position, the next highest numbered one following, and ends with numbers 00 and 1 directly in front of the player. This is also generally true of the rolling demo. I've noticed, however, that car number 69 is present in the rolling demo for the Beginner track, behind car 21 and in front of 16.
I'm playing the 1994 arcade version. Is the current article mistaken or was there indeed a car 20 in a previous version that was replaced with number 69 in this one?

message: Judging from the revision history, there seems to be some confusion about the composer. I've never heart or read anywhere that Tetsuya Mizuguchi composed the soundtrack. According to various sources on the web and Mr Mitsuyoshi himself, the composer is Takenobu Mitsuyoshi. Now, I've changed the article accordingly, but just to prevent further uncertainty, here are some more sources: Takenobu Mitsuyoshi is coming to Leipzig, Mitsuyoshi performs Daytona USA, S.S.T. Band. - ntropie 19:28, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

message: My save file in Daytona 2001 is past 24 hours now; I still don't have the Red Cat. I have no idea where folks got the idea that 20 hours would earn it, but either we've been had or there's some other mystery task. And curious that there's no details on the Javelin here...have that few people been able to unlock it? 172.129.136.69 05:37, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I have noticed there are 40 cars when you play by yourself. 8×5=40, so all of the colors are repeated 5 times if there are 40 seats. I also noticed if there are 2 or more players, there is a car 99 (which is the machine). SEGA will help me build this game for my children (and car 41 is the machine).

thread_title:  Demo 

message: Additional "Endurance" and "Grand Prix" modes are also included, both of which require pit stops.
By including the above sentence in the paragraph discussing the Saturn version of the game, it seems to imply these were added for the console port. But referring to guides for the arcade version written in 1994 and 1999, it's clear that these longer gameplay modes were available in the menus for the arcade cabinets for arcade owners to set as desired. And pit stops were only required if the time lost to a pit stop to get fresh tires and damage repaired was less than the total time lost from continuing to lap on worn tires/with car damage.
