How long have the touch screen fruit machines been in pubs for?

Pardon my ingnorance but I live in Edinburgh and the pub I was in at lunch was the first time ive seen one. Seen them in bookies but never the pub.

Played DOND at lunch on one there, so does this mean these games will be emulatable in the near future?

I've had a pub with 4 Juice machines in it since last July.

From the outside, it looks like they're Quiz machines so I rarely notice any players taking an interest.

These are in Shakespears on Lothian Road - just off west end of Princes Street.

The cabinet is labelled "Player" and one only has DOND and the other has a few games on it.

From someone who likes to mess about with emulated machines, I thought it was a bit shit, and didnt feel like I was playing the real thing.
