Does anyone remember a fruit machine called Blues Brothers. It had a spinning reel on the top board and I remember winning loads on it. If anyone has this I would love to know.

Top reel if I remember had 6 or 8 stops on it and was a car with a value on it.

Bottom glass had a set of 4 reels with the hi lo reel next to the 3 fruit reels like a JPM does.

But at the end of the day its all academic as its a BWB with BWB (Bastard $&%#ing Bollocks) protection

Yes mate I remember it well and have enquired on this board to see if can be emulated in the past. If I remember rightly you could also nudge the hi/low number real aswel. 2nudges on a 7 was a mystery feature and was quite good and 1 nudge on an 11 for same. Had £4 cash spinner at top and could go £40-50 sometimes as could the £8 (tokens spinner). It aslo had the same reals (rom) as the rocky horror show so could be barcrest and hopefully emulated. Hope this helps to fill in the blanks mate.

Bonjour!!! (del boy)

I am glad I am not alone in this quest. You just reminded me of some of the featutres this game had. I hope one day it will be emulated.
The film was better than the machine.

Thats the one, do you know if it has ever been emulated. Would be a great blast from the past.

I remember hearing of a copy that worked but paid out a jackpot on practically every spin... haven't got it myself though and I've not seen it running so can't guarentee it even exists.

Hi ive been coming to this site for about four years on and off but never really got involved. Ive never made a layout or ripped a rom or supplied a flyer. BUT I want to give something back. If someone could give me details on what would have to be done to emulate this machine I would gladly give it a go. I know VBasic insideout, and I can code to a reasonable standard in C,C#,C++, Turbo C. I remember this machine and loved it. I was offered to buy one about 6 months ago and couldn't afford it.
Help me give something back and ressurect this machine and other BWB's
