Fruit Machine Chat

Some new machines have been released.

See Fruit-Emu http://www.fruit-emu.com

More clones. It really didnt take extreme long to clone manic muncher....

Predicatbly a a clone from red of JP Gems....not so dazzling.

The BFG looks refreshingly different dare I say it.

Great..... a sackload of clones.

On A Roll - Clone of JP Gems
Gooaaalll - Straight clone of Take The Piece (with a trail added)
Superbugs - Straight clone of Manic Muncher

God sake.....make something new!! :x :x

I did say at Fruit Emu in relation to new machines.

What about a 5 reeler video, completely different to sec 16/21s.

It would have a similar format, video reels, it pays out to a percentage, jackpot of £25 and £5, has bonus games attached and costs only 30p or 10p to play, as a fixed stake.

Actually designers are already thinking similar to this, they have been planning 50p £25 sec 16s incase the origional sec 16/21 break down during the new laws. Some ALMD thing. (Coinslot subscribers should see info on the Monty Python Page).

Then Bazpeeb said

"What about a 5 reeler video, completely different to sec 16/21s" quote Coaster.

"watch this space!!!!!"

But not like Barcrest's Videostar.

do you reckon bellfruit are predicting the future with these 4 reelers or are they just trying to create something novel to make up for the rest of thier shit catalog?

clones are a quick and cheap way to knock out new machines though arnt they...for the majority they wont notice that the machine is a clone of JP GEMS say as they may have never played one or being sober enough to actually notice the display in full. :P

only one id touch would be on a roll..i like JP GEMS alot.

Make more DNA/LAB clones (basically anything with £15 rev sevens, fruitsteps/cash/nudges, and feature shots with a guaranteed £25 top). Any more of those and i'll be so happy!

Matt

Well i think that manufacturers would rather spend a little bit of money on a clone rather than spend lots of money on a brand new design. I mean its an easy steal, why bother creating new when people like old?

But, then slowly i think people will stop playing as the idea will get really old. Its funny as you see bad games getting withdrawn fast.

yeah 2nd that matty i love the added feature of features on LAB gives you another option as i rarely take notice on the ones on DNA...unless its the £10rpt for afters.

pulsation is being nice to me at the moment but fucking £20 tops are soo annoying...its a clever way to get you to put more credit through it thought really isnt it

£20 top...ten more in £45 top was my last effort..

I would like more machines like GZWI, Cabin Fever and Pink Panther.

Isn't X-Rated a clone of these, i found it to have quite poor gameplay.

X Rated was out before DNA and LAB, so if anything they are clones of that. DNA is reds best effort ever IMO. Sure they've had classics out, but i still genuinely get excited when i find a new DNA

Was over the moon to find one in Colchester last week!

Matt

yeah i did love DNA when we had 3 of them here.
last one was removed today for a bloody super smash martians is it? by Bar...never seen it before..:S
Top Giza is another firm favourite with Rocket Money keeping my faith alive in that clone series..

DNA in Southport next to a Crazy Cobra,LS, Addams family and a Monopoly fuuny thing is though with all the locals there you think they would always be stone cold dead but Addams Family was there for a quick £25 repeat for the taking Lucky Strike with a quick £20 cashpot and DNA which I bottled to take £10 repeat which repeated.

When everyone is saying this DNA is great everytime you force when its full and giving good signs like 3 and 4 shots £10 and giving frequent boards, do you just play for the setups to get you fruit steps in or is there a good play method using nudges and swops?

Being meaning to ask but not sure who can be bothered explaining

you cant rely solely on either nudges or fruit steps..
you need to be able to use both effeciently..knowing the reels will really help you as you will know exactly how many of each you will need to get you anywhere.

red exchange points should be taken advantage of and using the bonus before swapping over will mean you will get it again when you have swapped..so many times ive seen people waste this chance by taking the number step after swapping...very silly.

God no!

Why would anyone want any more of these flat profiled pieces of crap anywhere. Nearly always costs as much to get a JP as you've put in, and they are rarely in any sort of decent state. Keep 'em away!
