Do you think it will ever be emulated? It is one of my favourite machines and would love to play it at home and save my money

[chasnbons]

Mine too and this time next week I should have the real thing in my possession

[mlevans84]

Can i ask where you purchased and how much it cost?

Yes you can ask, but I won't be saying anything apart from I'm buying the whole T7 machine and not just the game.

I do like the idea of a Triple7 machine. I think they look superb. Also prefer this option to having an AWP. I guess they can still get a bit boring after so long but at least they are random based.

T7 machines are excellent.

A love the cabs. Might be able to afford one in about 5 years time. Hopefully they'll be a lot cheaper. I'm hoping a few hundred quid 😃

Best thing about cabs like that is you are not just paying for one game like a normal AWP. Finding one with 12 games on it the same as owning 12 different machines but without the space issues. If you get bored of grinding one of the games just move on to the next.

Is there a newer model nowadays?

Yes, they went to T7 and then Vortex I believe.

I got one of mine from JNC Sales, they're always worth a call.

I have had my T7 for just over a year now.

 

A great machine! I have 9 real play games for it, lots of demos. Keeps me busy

 

SG also made the T8, which is fairly similar, just bigger hi res displays, animated top box, also an all coin hopper. Weird though, T7s seem to be about in higher numbers still. Vortex is pretty good though, from a punters point of view. Lots of games, more than the standard 9 menu.

The problem with Vertex is that it's subscription based, so not only does it cost an ongoing amount of money (which isn't cheap), also Barcrest won't entertain the thought of allowing someone access on their home machine to the Vertex system.

 

I REALLY need to get hold of the Triple 7 multi-menu (It was made for Gala I believe). Not sure if that is also subscription based or not, but would love to do some experimentation, and would pay if someone could get it for me.

There seems to be lots of rental menus now. Also games that you would expect to find on a T7. 

[nails]

Barcrest realised they could screw ppl for £££ if they made all the games rental only.

 

sooner rather than later t7's will be gold dust.

I had said this to our team why are we sticking these on Videobet they will become no good for the home market and old seaside arcades in the next few years I was told its for our customers request naaa BS more like to stop the every joe having a unit , T8 was to totally axe old friends work and design and put SG label all over the poxy thing. The T8`s are soon having the support for them dropped. A T9 is coming very soon.

Yes me too.

I have one machine that has 12 licenced games and I can only display nine of them.
