Hi guys.
My first post here for a long time. I just got my hands on a Mario Kart 64 Fruit Machine today. It is in fantastic condition, working and sounding very well. Very clean machine, and maybe a few bulbs not lighting. I was wondering if I stuck it in ebay what i get for it. Any clues what its worth?
Also, how does one change the date etc on the LCD board?

He was polite...to a point...Perhaps this is trifling a little but with Baz helping there hasnt been a Thanks for that, has there.
Either he just didn't, or he didn't read any of the replies and therefore doesnt read the forum or go on it.

I once made an account on FF. I didn't like it at the time, bearing in mind this was Sept. '05 and I didnt feel big enough for my boots yet. Didn't go near until last year or thereabouts. Nothing there interested me then.

Could be the same, if he has nothing concerning fruit machines or nothing he feels important to share then theres nothing telling him to post it anyway except himself.

This is a site for EMULATION purposes of older machines. Not playing strategies.
If you are more interested in playing modern machines,
visit Jackpottyforums

(DOND is around now on this site..... How long was this sig out of date...!)

Could I add that its strange that he has not had a question to ask or something to contribute in all that time - I have only been on here since early this year and in that time have asked stuff and also commented on stuff that I have experienced. I would also add that although I am fairly new to this field (though not to electronics type stuff) I have learned an awful lot from the guys on here (Baz, Impact, Lincs, Ady, etc. etc.)- directly or indirectly and am grateful for that and would always make that known.

I am sorry guys if have upset anyone. I have not downloaded anything from the website, i only had a free email address when I first joined and I needed another. My wife let me use hers, I forgot password etc, and forgot all about it but got sorted today.
I am a fruit machine lover and I intend to get my hands on some more. I have a room in my house that will fit a few. But Mario Kart was not one of the ones I wanted. I aim to get another with the money I get from Mario Kart.
But thanks anyway!

Welcome,

lol naw you didn't upset anyone buddy....

We see loads who only post when they need help etc, a lot of them ask and never return to see replies or even say thanks when its given.

Theres loads of friendly banter like you read here....I hope you get your help and that you'll join in the discussions ;)

Off to work now :(
