Maluk Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 What are the monetary units aboard the SDF-1, Macross 7, Eden or in places featured in every Macross video? Quote
Aurel Tristen Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 What are the monetary units aboard the SDF-1, Macross 7, Eden or in places featured in every Macross video? I believe its just "credits". Onboard the Macross if you're hungry, you can get a Macro-Sand for 200 credits.... hehe (DYRL) Perhaps Macross money... or maybe UN money... if there is a one world govenment. Quote
Wumzi Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 If I recall correctly in Macross Plus, when the chip to be installed into Sharon apple was bought, the guy payed for it with "credits" Quote
maxjenius81 Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 credits....ah yes the basic generic money of the future......I dunno ive never really liked when a series just went with credits...its kinda....bland. At least give your money an interesting name like Macredit or something else Quote
dna Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 As near as I can tell, the payouts from the video game machines seemed to be in credits, not game tokens, as you can see Max lugging it home (IIRC). So there's your chance to see it. What was it, a big yellow coin with an "M"? Quote
007-vf1 Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 ..Yeah, but how do you say 'credits' in Japanese...? may be the pronounciation sound cool... Quote
J A Dare Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 ..Yeah, but how do you say 'credits' in Japanese...?may be the pronounciation sound cool... Romanji translation: credit card = kurejitto kado (note: the 'a' is long) Quote
maxjenius81 Posted March 13, 2004 Posted March 13, 2004 Guess not.... As for the M, it was probably an arcade or casino token so the M is probably specific to the joint whose name escapes me atm... Quote
Druna Skass Posted March 14, 2004 Posted March 14, 2004 credits....ah yes the basic generic money of the future......I dunno ive never really liked when a series just went with credits...its kinda....bland.

J A Dare Posted March 15, 2004 Posted March 15, 2004 Remember, Macross had an international crew! UN Spacy anyone??? So, since the EU uses the euro, I guess Macross would use the...uno? Yo Roy, can I borrow 5 unos? hmmm...sounds Spanish. Quote

I'd have to review the actual ep in question, but I doubt Max would haul home boxes of tokens. They seemed to be treating it like money. Quote
Pat Payne Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 (edited) What if they called it bling-bling? Over my dead body. As for money, I always thought that at least on board Macross there was a ration system and no real monetary system -- that they used ration points for making purchases of staple living necisities. Maybe there was some sort of money for luxury items? Edited March 16, 2004 by Pat Payne Quote
Godzilla Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 I can't believe you guys are talking about this. This is like the Star Wars discussion which Did the general contractors all die on the Death Star 2? Kudos to those who knows what movie I am referring to. Quote

Powered Convoy Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 So I take it Macross-nald's (from the TV Series) doesn't have the Dollar Menu. Randy Quote
