back in the day
played f 20 years and still av never got an emptier but enjoyed machines until 1999 and still play now unfortuntaely barx 7 f streaks if ya lucky hi techs very boring unless emptier obvisouly but what is everyones favourtie in terms of playability over the years id say andy capp, roller coaster, red alert, psycho beast, and winner takes all 8 quid tokens.
Theres been some great games over the years, i quite enjoyed Arabian Knights, Neptunes Treasure, not so much Red Hot Knights, found them slightly tighter and they did a random flash, also PCB and Frenzy were good.
Ps, was there £8 token machines? I thought they finished at £6? I remember seeing my first machine with a £10 jp all cash payout which was Eastenders lol.

I remember Switchback. A later version of Note Exchange.
The latter was a sure-fire starter in the days where you could start off with your pocket money, changing your pound coins for 10p pieces, then looking for one of these with a 2 on the line, hoping for a hold & a boost to mystery!
Switchback would on the rare occasion, roll the £4 straight in and offer you the exchange for £4 + £2 note run.
I had NE £2 plus go for £36 once and was literally begging it to stop because I thought it was broken!

Which machine was it that first came out in those fancy grey cabs with the flash rippled buttons?Been-Grant-Mitchell'd! wrote:CashWise, Chain Reaction, Lynx.
Anything with a skillclimb or reel match.
Had a trail to 8 I think, skill cash was about the third feature up but use to cheat you, also had a reel match low down I believe?
Use to make the high pitch bleep on each £1 that clicked out and a low pitch for 20p's and tokens or vice versa?
Use to love that game, had it in a chippy near me.
