I spent most of my time playing at Gold Saucer. There are eight different parts inside. They including the Station, Speed Square, Ghost Square, Chocobo Square, Wonder Square, Event Square, Round Square and Battle Square.You get 10 GP(main form of currency) the first time you visit the Gold Saucer.You can earn GP in three ways. The first one is to bet on the Chocobo races at Chocobo Square. The second one is to play games in Wonder Square.Really good stuff must be won at the Shooting Coaster, Chocobo Races or at the Duel.The third is before you enter the Station about one time in seven you'll encounter a dark figure in the top left corner.(right after the save spot) He will sell you up to 100 GP for 100Gil=1GP Enter here to play Gold Saucer Games!!!

This is the list of Gold Saucer mini-games.

Arm Wrestling

The strategy for this game is simple, you just hammer on the O button, and if you win, you get 1 GP for Sumo Wrestler, and 2 GP for Wrestler.

UFO Catcher

The machine on the left has mostly Potions and 1 GP's, but there's about a 1 n 100 chance you'll catch 80 GP or Megalixir. Machine on the right has about a 1 in 100 chance of getting 100 GP or a normal Elixir, and 1 in 30 chance of getting Phoenix Down.

Super Dunk

Anyone can master Super Dunk with enough practice. And if you can you will get quickest way to collect GP.If you make the basket you get the chance to shoot again, if you miss the game is over and you get 1 GP for every shot you made.When you reach 10 points the machine will ask you to play double or nothing. The game will stop when you reach 300 GP mark.

Mog House

The trick in this game is simple. If mog looks hungry feed him.If he looks full stop feeding him. If you win the girl behind you will give you 30 GP, but only once.

Shooting Coaster

There are some good good things to be won here, but it is really hard to get the minimum 5,000 points necessary to win some good things. There is a little cheat if don't feel like playing this game, for more info on Shooting Coaster cheat see FF7 Tips section.

One game at the Shooting Coaster costs 10 GP. You will get the prize if you score 3,000+, but these are items like a model of Shira Sweeper, or Masamune blade. The big prizes are at the 5,000+ mark. On disc 1, the prize is Aerith's Umbrella weapon. On disc 2 and 3 prize changes to Cid's Flayer weapon. Tired of old shooting coaster, then visit Gold Soucer Games Page where you can play Java Games!!!

Chocobo Racing

For the full strategy and complete prize list on Chocobo Racing see the Chocobo Racing section.

Snowboarding

You can only play this game after you play it for real in disc 2. This game costs only 200 gil and you can continue as many times as you want.

To advance to course B and C, you must score at least 70 points on course A and B, respectively. You will have to learn how to steer with the L and R buttons. If you get 70+ on each of the three, a yellow balloon will apear near the start, and taking this balloon will take you to the hidden obstacle-less time trial, where you are ranked on your time only.

The prizes for 90 points are: Course A-30 GP and a Safety Bit. Course B-100 GP and Enemy All Materia. Course C-300GP and a Cristal Bangle.

My records on time trial are:

Course A- 00'55'146 -excelent

Course B- 01'09'632 -super

Course C- 01'22'777 -very good

 

I will post more games here soon.
