S16 machines currently giving the option of £2 play, £500 j/p will be changing. They will still be random, eg Slotto's, but will have the option of jackpot related prizes. For example - You can play £1.50 a spin and win £300, you can play 50p a spin and win £150. I am not saying these examples are correct but this is what is happening. The jackpots will range from £100, £200, £300, £400 and £500 using the multistake option.

This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy

all the S16s will be limited to £1 a spin, but still £500 JP, only 4 per site, but no longer random, will be running set programs like a normal machine.

most of the S16s will convert down to £35jp (bell fruit,astra,barcrest ect) but some reflex ones ie vegas/fortune 500 will be scrap.


the manufactures are starting to send out convertion kits all ready

What I am interested in is how many operators will put their existing section 16/21 machines in Cat D (10p £5) straight away.

How many do you think? Im guessing some Blackpool operators and some of the larger coastal resorts.

I have already got a holy grail set stake £1/£500 jackpot sited in local, tried 20 through it and seemed quite poor. Not sure as the randomness :?

Nope, in a bowling complex.

That's quite strange, because I know quite a few Holy Grail machines have been tested in various bingo halls around the country.
