Anyone remember a old Bell fruit machine called pick of the pack??It was a club machine which I spent hours on when I was younger. It was a great machine that paid well. It had a deck of cards going along the machine which you had to link for greater prizes.
There must be one somewhere out there.

When I first read the title, I was expecting someone demanding the recent £25 AWP version be emulated

Anyway, not a machine I've played before but sounds interesting, I'll have a quick look around for stuff, although it is no doubt not emulatable at this time.

Yes similar to Barcrest's 'Club Celebration' from the G for George era.

A fun machine, used to be 5p play in the Stratford Upon Avon Working Man's club. It had the option to turn the bank into credits with the chance to win extra credits. A quid could last for ten years.

[sparky1971]

yeah,,very similar to club celebration but the idea was to link the cards on a "fan"...more cards you linked, the greater the prize...link em all and you got the jackpot

Hi all!

 

So much has gone on with emulation recently with games that said could never be done

 

Has anyone come across this??

 

I know I posted years ago but was hoping someone might of had some luck!!!

Yes it can be done now, i am sure someone will take it on, ploggy and pook were discussing this way back in 2006.

Yeah it is similar .

ploggy and pook were both looking into creating a dx of this way back in 2006

 

there is also another one similar called   double dealer and you can choose to play on 10p or 20p.

Indeed I've had prepped art art for over a decade, back when I did this it was a non runner but it believe it does now. Also have art for Double Dealer.

OMG!!!!  That's the game!!!!  Cant believe you have the screen shot of it already

[sparky1971]

I was just watching a you tube video of Phil Doncaster playing on it....many moons ago, one came up on ebay and I went after it but it went for silly money.

Does anyone have the roms so it can be emulated???

God would be amazing if someone could do this!!!!

 

I spent so much time on this when I was a kid;;;obviuoulsy playing illegally hahah

Been playing cash attraction club as well---another old favourite!!

 

They dont make em like that any more......But pick of the pack was the best!!!

[mabby2000]

I had pick of the pack clubber on 150 quid jackpot 20p play back in 1994! I still remember when you win loads, thump thump as the 2 £1 solenoids paying out and the machine shook a bit lol!
That was bell fruit system 87 I believe.

Very nice base art there mr pook to say it's 12 years old look forward to the finished product.

[sparky1971]

mabby,,,,so so jealous.....I just thought it was a brilliant game....always remember when you hit the shuffle and when you thought you were on for a good link,,,it stiffed you.....
With you,,,when those 1s starting paying,,,,it made the bar turn around

Maybe older, note how the reel casing was made vertical as the emu didn't have reel masking back then, if I did resume this one I'd clearly have to edit it back to suit the emus current design tools.

Everything looks in place for this to be emulated in classic layout form, by anyone interested.

 

There's possibly even a near finished classic layout sitting on a hard drive somewhere, that wasn't released because it couldn't be emulated properly.
