Sorry another question based on my inability to remember the names of machines. 

 

After the eachway shuffle and double up there were some great JPM machines that were quite similar but with interesting little quirks, It make be there are EMus here, in which case please let me know. 

 

There were two with numbers on the reals but one one you got 10 nudges for getting something like 5 (probably corresponding with the word N-U-D-G-E. On another you got a nudge stop if you got to 5 but if you got to 6 (with 3 twos) you got 10 nudges. I remember these as 2p games (in Caister and Hemsby in around 1984 onwards) but they may have also been 10 or 5p games before and they may have been around earlier than that. 

 

Another good JPM game that was around by 1982 has numbers adding to 4 or 6 (I think) to get another real to spin to give nudges. This was perhaps the first machine I saw with a feature hold for numbers. A more complicated machine that came soon after, called Quest, had a similar theme but I think that was Bell Fruit or MayDay. 

 

Any help with the names of these machines or getting EMUs would be much appreciated.

Sadly the mk1 versions of these games are on a tech that is not yet emulated. There is a stand alone simulation of each way nudger available. The mk2 are available, there is a good discussion thread about the SRU tech and the machines on it over at the Mecca. A golden era for jpm games, make no mistake.

Thanks all for replying and it's great to see that video, I'm jealous of that visit. Seeing those machines brings back a lot of memories - I remember why we used to bunk off school and head down the seafront. 

 

Shame those older machines are emulated yet but glad to see people have them, are taking care of them and are enjoying them. 

 

I was reading about an arcade of classic machines in Kent, so hope to get down there and see what they have.

That arcade you speak of in Kent, is one of two (The other is in Gravesend), operated by none of than than Mr P's, and he has a web forum too, along being very well known to us in FME, and a member of some of the related FME forums :)
