Chocobo Racing Grand Prix Contest
The Chocobo Racing Grand Prix Contest was a promotion for the game Chocobo Racing that ran from September 30, 1999 to December 8, 1999. The contest was sponsored by Square EA.
The contest's title was a misnomer, because participants entered by playing through the game's Story Mode (rather than Grand Prix Mode) and sending in their scores (either through taking a photograph of the score screen or saving the score to a memory card and sending the memory card).
Contest entries were divided into five age groups: seven years old and younger, eight to eleven years old, twelve to fifteen years old, sixteen to eighteen years old, and nineteen years old and older. Square EA (the sponsor) then determined the three highest scores per week in each age group. The three participants with the highest scores of the week in their respective age group each received a Chocobo Piggy Bank.
At the end of the Contest, Square EA determined the three highest scorers overall in each age group. Each participant with the highest score in the contest overall in his or her respective age group received one free copy of each Squaresoft title released for the original PlayStation in the year 2000 (SaGa Frontier 2, Front Mission 3, Vagrant Story, Legend of Mana, Threads of Fate, Chrono Cross, Parasite Eve 2, and Final Fantasy IX) and a Chocobo Watch. Each participant with the second highest score in the contest overall in his or her respective age group received a free copy of Chocobo's Dungeon 2 and a Chocobo Watch. Each participant with the third highest score in the Contest overall in his or her respective age group received a Chocobo Watch.
