I found this goldmine of a site earlier in the week and have enjoyed many of the classic slot machines, I remember wasting hours on, when I was a teenager in the 80's.
So.. I found Smash "and" Grab, Reelcrazy and eachway Nudge, but I can't remember the names of any of the others and this site is a bottomless pit of fruit machine information.
My question is - Where can I see a complete list of all the classic bandits from the 80's - especially the old 2p and 5p ones...
And can I download these games?
I notice that some of the games lack the artwork. I am a bit handy with 3ds max and photoshop so If anyone wants some artwork knocking up, I would consider it fun.

Best thing to do is to start from the beginning. From the sites 'Home Page', the columns on the left, 3rd down says 'resources'. Click on 'Downloads' and a page will appear with sub categories listing emulators. To the right of these, the descriptions have the odd highlighted techs that these emulators support. Click on each of these 'techs' and an alphabetical list of layouts/games will appear. Then just go through the list of layouts/games to see if theres any that jog the old memory.
I'd advise you to have a look at the following....
MFME1.1 lists MPU3 and MPU4 games. Barcrests techs from the 80's and a fair chunk of the 90's. M1a is Maygay stuff from the 90's. Classics like 'Line-Up/Echanges Unlimited/ right through to Nickelodeon/Cloud999/Top Tenner/Action Bank/ and stacks of those £2 'Cash Advance' type games with the 'Action Nudges/Cash.
MFME2/3 lists System 80, Sys5, MPS and Sys1. Lots of class stuff from the late 80's and into the 90's. Games like Lootshoot/Special Reserve/Cash Alarm/HitMoney/ReelCrazy/SupaTrack/Poundstretcher/ and plenty of those old 2p faves with 50p repeaters.
MFME2.1/3.1 lists Proconn and SP.Ace stuff from the early 90's. Games like 'Play It Again/Twilight Zone/777 Heaven/Jackpot 7's/Open The Box
Of course, you'll need the relevent emulators to run the games in a category. (MFME2.1/MFME1.1 ect...)
Just browse the categories ect... and have a butchers. This will help refine your searching anyways.
Oh, and welcome to the site.
