Indeed they were owned by Sega. My 1st JPM was Force10, what was that feature called again? £7.60 + £7.60? something Mega Climb? Brilliant when they rolled in, especially when in the kebab shop in Wimbledon and my local Agora

Wasn't it JPM who made the sonic fruity too? I am sure there was something you could do and it would go "sega"!!

Yeah JPM made Sonic as well. That was before my AWP time but I have played it on the emulator.
The tail end of JPM was pretty awful though with Tomb Raider. I had the misfortune of playing it as it came out right at the beginning of my playing days, but only by just.

Bizarrely, I recall watching one of the first Carry On films and Charlie Hawtrey has a go on a 'fruit' machine (it looks more like a vertical roulette) and you can see 'Sega' written along the bottom of it. lol Must've been early sixties...

Arcadia easily the best, followed by Red Arrow, 5 Liner and Hi Roller. Do You Feel Lucky was too mean... when they turned them in £25 jackpots, they were crap, streaks still paid £15 and £20 if you got the top the way we were!

Quantum Leap and G-Force treated me very well, boy those two could hold so much buzz.

I used to like popeye,couldn't exactly make a fortune on it though.

The new Popeye is the most disgusting fruit ever created...or at least as disgusting as the other disgusting ones that that disgusting Bell Fruit company makes...
If its not Bell Fruit its some other shit company with the fat pipes with the trampy buttons, you get the idea.
