Having got the INDE emulator running sharpishly. I started looking around for ROMS and found there was a few popular titles missing. So I wondered if anybody had these titles or if they can be made. I have listed below the games I could not find. I am a bit of a touchscreen quiz fanatic.

Pub Series Cricket I love this game no general knowledge questions just have to have good coordination

Skill Ball Bingo this is so addicitive but you never seem to be able to win on it.

1 vs 100 Absolutely fantastic this game is 1 of the best quiz games I have seen for payout. If you get to the end game you always get a decent win. You also have dodges and a double if you get the double question right you eliminate a lot of people if you choose the right question. The dodges are skip questions but also eliminate people out.

The Pepsi Chart Quiz We used to play this for hours it is 1 of the generous quiz machines. In that it lets you have a good run of questions so you can actually enjoy the game.

Shoot the stars this is really good it is hangman but you get a picture also. So you shoot the squares and have to fill in the blanks of who the person star is.

They are the games what standout for me which I cant find. Hours of fun there. If anybody can find these or develop them would be well appreciated.

Having got the INDE emulator...


emulator?

To be honest, I'm surprised that what has been released so far came to light. Anything else that shows up will be received with gratitude, but I don't think asking will get you anywhere. This is a community, and when things become available - in principle - they are shared out among everyone.

Skill Ball Bingo would be interesting, but it's blatantly rigged and if you can't see that, I'd give up now.

It's typically on a 30% payout, and the skill element is SIMPLY the picking by yourself of whether to reject or accept a ball. That's it.

If it doesn't want to pay you - it won't offer you a ball you need to win.

It's really that simple. Had a very switched on bloke playing one of the 4 standalone SBB units we had in the arcade I worked in last season, and he called me over - not to complain - but to show me how the machine was rigged. He needed one ball, it was the only ball left, and he had 30+ seconds left. It just kept bouncing around, never falling in the hole.

The machine was not willing to allow a £1 win, hence he could not possibly have received his £1 stake back.

I'm sure many of us already know that the machine works in this manner, but if you don't, PLEASE don't think you can win using actual skill alone. It's compensated, just the same as a fruit machine, but potentially at a much lower percentage.

The version built into the INDE terminals is even worse, as you also have the touchscreen interface working against you. I've an INDE machine in a pub a mile down the road, and the Skill Ball Bingo is basically impossible because the screen is simply not as responsive, or as accurate, as having the actual 'ACCEPT' and 'REJECT' buttons as actual, physical buttons mounted on the cabinet.

Totally agree withyou on the skillball bingo but the majority of the touchscreen games are designed to take your money. That is why there is so many fruit machines and Quiz machines around it is a money making empire. Unfortunately unless you have 3 grand or are very good at remaking broken models then you cant make money renting them out.
