if you could choose 4 £500 machines for an arcade, what would you choose and why?

my guess at the moment is

1. Elvis top 20
2. Cashino
3. Plarty SLUTTO
4. toss up between rainbow riches and whatever takes my fancy

[impact]

Cashino wins for me and R/R only

but b3 suck`s sorry m8

i played elvis on £1 the other day, and to be honest i had a good play, but perhaps i was lucky? after some £80 cycled through i got 4 discs that went £35.

[CoasterDesignerpro]

Id say;

Rainbow Riches
Reel King
Party Games Slotto
Elvis Top 20

[stanmarsh14]

My current faves are....

BFM's Random Spinner
Partygames Slotto
Rainbow Ritches
Project's Casino Cash 500

the multigame ones - where it can have 4 machines on one and you choose from a menu?? Do these count as one machine or more?? If they are 1 I would choose two of them, Elvis or Cashino and definitely a Rainbow Riches.

thats just one machine m8, though the asking price is like buying 4 !!!!

[No1Stoney]

If your looking to make a profit from the punters, I would suggest Elvis, Max-a-Million, Rainbow Riches, Bullseye (or whatever its called), random spinner and monopoly

I know thats 6, but theres my list

what about the top progressive box, is that illegal now ?

[Daza5056]

Yes, progressive wins are no longer allowed

Rainbow Riches still has POTS on the B3 machine though - but when awarded the pots have set prizes on them instead of just BRONZE, SILVER & GOLD

[DnM]

Mine would have to be:

Elvis

Random Spinner

The Holy Grail

& my all time fave £500'er is High Roller, i've not seen one converted yet, i'm not even sure if they can be!

[Richard]

there's not that many b3's out, I suppose I'd have a reel king/rainbow riches/grand casino/python

high roller was brilliant, agree with DnM there, especially good on £5/spin, had so many £250 wins, only one £500, but it loved the £250 win.

[CrAzYbAr]

Rainbow Riches/Cashino, Megaslot, Reel King and Tornado(if converted)

Whats haunted house like on £1? i loved £10 to be honest.. gave you wicked house feature of £250+

does that mean the features are now £25-£40 or are they still the same?

hmmm

[Richard]

nails, how can you play haunted house on £10/spin when the percentage is still only 90% (it doesn't say its any better for £10 anyway!) that's a terrible gamble!

hi-roller and oceans 11 were 98% for high stakes and those CMS ones were stuck at 90%. I've spoken to many people who played them on £10 and they all said they were rubbish!

B3's are just utter crap.

To be honest I preferred them when they were S16's. Mind you i'm glad of the change now coz after playing only one B3 and had about £50 of non winning spins I thought "hmm.. I ain't touching one of these again!" , Only a complete dunce would play a B3 blind.

You're right about there not being many b3s about. I went in most of the arcades in Blackpool on Friday and found only one Rainbow Riches in one arcade. Even Coral Island did not have any - only a couple of weeks ago it had 3 RRs, 2 Cashinos, 2 Monty Pythons and 3 others I can't remember the names of. Where have they all gone?

Agree 100%. The £1/spin game has completely ruined it for the player.

What they should have done with Elvis, Cashino, RR etc. is kept the game exactly as they played on the £1 option on S16 (with the exception of the "pot" removal). Yes, the £500 wouldn't have been as attainable but at least they would have played reasonably well.

Instead, the machines now suck so much harder in order to support the same disc and feature values as they used on £2/spin. The money seems to go in just as quickly as on S16 but you never feel like you're going to win anything, and sure enough, most of the time you don't. It's just dead spin after dead spin, no excitement at all.

The feature game frequency is at least halved from before (and they were pretty scant on S16), the jackpot is almost nonexistent and all the regulars I know are pretty pissed off with them. The takings in my local arcade are also well down compared to what they used to earn with S16's because everyone has reverted to playing the £35 jackpot machines.

no, what happened is that the wins got higher to cancel out the possibility of losing, ie, on £10 a spin, any 3 was £5 and any 3 jp/wild was £25
