Will this finally be the death knell?
Will this finally be the death knell?
Unless the companies are prepared to put in the investment required to update all their old machines, will this be the point when we can finally bring down the curtain on our little world?

This had already occurred to me.Surely pubs wouldn't stand for machines that don't take the new pound coin.It is possible that the companies aren't prepared to spend whatever it would take to update the coin mechs (I have no idea how much that would involve) but cool's experience of having the note changer updated is a little more encouraging.Can I ask which type of machine that was,cool?
i was in a pub yesterday near chancery lane and the quiz machine said HAVE A FREE GO. So I took the "freeby" game and would of theoritically won £10. some crap game a bit like blockbusters crossed with hangman ish. anyways on the free1 i must have "fluked" the 10bar.

it's fairly inexpensive to update for the new coin.muddle wrote:This had already occurred to me.Surely pubs wouldn't stand for machines that don't take the new pound coin.It is possible that the companies aren't prepared to spend whatever it would take to update the coin mechs (I have no idea how much that would involve) but cool's experience of having the note changer updated is a little more encouraging.Can I ask which type of machine that was,cool?
hoppers don't need any work at all
cashflow/ sr5i mechs can be reprogrammed for £20-£30
also you can update the sr5 yourself using teach and run feature
i wouldn't be surprised if the big players have 1 ready mechs on site now..
