Fruit Machine Chat

They have dosh and pecks in eastenders bookies and used to have a golden dragon in the queen vic, what other good soap machines have there been? Also why does the machine in the queen vic still play the dragon effects?

I noticed that in the vic too, keep hearing 'dololololo' trial hold sounds from golden dragon played randomly, even if nobodys on the fruit, i think its some impulse thing in there now, never seen it out in the wild tho.

Its amazing in the jockey in shameless, bet the maguires had that covered to fuck, and probs threatened to batter any engineer that dared to try and come and chip it lol

theres more to life than machine hunting watching soaps, its not likely you'd get a chance to play them

Doesn't anyone remember the money money money from Corrie? I think the woolpack had a duty free at one stage too.

Oh and only fools and horses jolly boys outing had a Reel Crazy in it hehe old skool :p

The machine in corrie makes me laugh, no idea what it is coz i hate the show TBH but mum and dad watch it, and the sounds, they are pitiful, like some kind of 8 bit beepy sounds like an early nintendo gameboy would make!

I will never understand why they dont just have the sounds turned up to a sensible level on the actual machine itself so that it all seems more realistic, instead of added in sounds from something that sounds nothing like any machine around these days.

Yeah why don't they just let them play it properly instead of them pretneding to play in attract mode or test!

The pub in Al Murray's Happy Hour has a Rollercoaster but its always turned off.

Who would wnat to play a fruit machien anywaye?

Bit sad dont you think, most people in life grow up to be great parents and leave their kids something to look forward too.

The sounds they use in corrie, on the mc, does anyone know if they're from a mc called exchanges unlimited?

Used to have that sound in my head for hours, after a vist to the arcade..the higher u got on the gamble, the sound would go faster.. can still hear it now!!

I thought the sounds were from Sunset Boulevard.

Currently workin my way thru an entire shameless box set and I can confirm that they only seem to have two samples.

The collect sound from a joker poker and the jackpot music from the old ace machine grand national!!!

Just had a look on u tube. Exchanges unlimited, is very similar, but i think they're using the line up machine sounds.

Eastender used to have a horseracing themed one.

I cannot remember the name of it, but it was a Barcrest and a green colour i think.
