Your All-Time Favourite Machine

That's one more down, several more to go mystery plum.

And yes, feel the nostalgia. All available to download bar Cash Bowl (I think).

Funky Town - Lipps inc was actually the music on Kev's Garage, not M/A/R/R/S as I originally guessed.

Quick tip: For serious 80s nostalgia search for Pseudo Echo - Funky Town on Youtube.

I can't quite get the music on The Trolley Dash (I'm cheating now, I've downloaded it on the emulator). Brian Adams in there someowhere. Those old skool dance tracks and some ZZTop?

Cash Bowl is emulated, (reel skill features require a reset, though) and was the first machine I ever played.

i liked the boxing one where the fighters said things like "i could have been a contendah" but if ever i were to buy one it would be let the good times roll. probably best part of 15 years ago now.

Got 1 just round the corner from me. A player has already got it covered though. Plus the % is only 70% so I don't bother with it.

That was around the same time as Top Gear, it was great! Never seen either since.

Maybe just getting old, but will always reckon awps have gone down hill,
cabinets boring, gameplay poor, hate screen machines.
Bring back the classics! !

I remember an old Project Coin XS? It featured an XS nudge pot that would activate on occasion (can't remember if there was a 'trigger' as such), credit after credit when streaking! Didn't seem to be a very common machine.
