to actually find an original jpm machine will be very hard now even the arcade in mabelthorpe that still has lots of oldie machines doesn't even have this.

the only ones i think u might find will be mk2 and mk3's now.

they do appear from time to time on ebay.


happy memories of the original eachway shuffles

i loved these original JPMs!! shame an emulator hasn't been written for them. the MK2s and 3s are sadly nothing to the originals.

i'm sure i remember some of the early eachway shuffles being capable of holding up to 5 or 6 times after a jackpot - or even a £1 win which wasn't bad, 5 or 6 pound in old 10ps. i think the max 3 holds after jackpot was a re chip to prevent them constantly emptying of tokens, a common problem with some of these machines i whitnissed.

They were very popular machines some of the arcade i used to frequent in the summer hols had rows and rows of them n yes they did used to hold £2 and £1 wins over and over.. I do remember a £3 jackpot eachway shuffle at my local take away £3 for melons £1.50 grapes it never held on any win greater than 3 cherries etc.. sure he had it rigged.. anyways enough of me rambling was kinda sad that these machines were fazed out.. for machines like line up, exchanges unlimited, adder and ladders etc machines which seemed to be so predictable just like most of todays

Remember you can download both of them on here. Sadly, not the Mark I's however

Here's Lite A Nudge anyway.

Best place to look is eBay. There have been a couple sold on there in the last six months or so and the last one only went for £100 so a real bargain!!

Great machine - along with the likes of Lite A Nudge - but unlikely to see it emulated any time soon.
