i think the most satisfying jackpot, despite no music, was oldschool Bar x with like £1 for x's and £6 tokens for Bars. waiting all that time while it adds up the £6 , knowing it could hold 3 or 4 more times... was so intense.
i always used to help kids if i saw someone with invincible or on a feature u can get jackpot.. didnt need to shark anyone in those days. still dont but most arcades are so tight now, and with everyone else doing it.. its you or them i guess. but i still feel guilty for saying to a kid ' ill give you £5 for that feature right now ' when he had shizam on arabian nights.. and then getting £24 from crazy streak. he was only young.. i still bow my head in shame now ..
lol at the 10% taxing of tokens
id take it if given but never really asked for it.
Folkestone used to be mad for me, doing test ya strength for myself on roller coaster when another person is shouting across the arcade '' addict come and do rollup rollup please!! '' , while another might be shouting for some help with setting up the Walterz feature for £15.20 ( we had a lot of roller coasters in folkestone, during the jpm season. must admit though, being nearly 26 and not playing as much like before, ma reflexes aint no where near the same now . did once do test ya strength with ma eyes closed, just cause someone dared .
when those jpm's died (roller, money talks.. etc etc..) like any other machine that is worth playing eventualy does .. a part of me died with them.
Pretty certain about £1.50s, 100% on the £2.40.
