Ok. I was watching one of my Only Fools and Horses DVDs and theres a part in the episode "chain gang" when Del meets a jeweller in a casino and in the background theres some bandits. I noticed Barcrests Blackjack which I've since downloaded and love it.
Has anyone else ever found a good machine on telly or in a film? I watched one of my childhood fave's "just ask for diamond" recently and theres some 80's machines in it but I cant make out what they are.
Yes, this is sad. As I write this my girlfriend is ruthlessly ripping the piss out of me!

LMAO - great thread this could be!
Personally I love watching the video to the song 'West End Girls' by The Pet Shops Boys. You can see the view from a bus as it goes past an amusement arcade. Really takes me back - I can't make out any machines as such but the old cabinets look great and there's definitley a Cromptons Silver Skis pusher in there. I'll have to watch it frame by frame next time
Speaking of Only Fools and Horses, in the Jolly Boy's Outing episode Sid and Albert have a lengthy conversation whilst stood in front of a JPM Reel Crazy.
Sure there's more - I'll have to have a think...
Great post though - welcome to the site!

Dont know if anyone else noticed but every time steve or any other character plays fruit machine in coronation street its always the same old sounds it makes from machines.
The sounds never change no matter what Fruit machine the rovers got in lol
I reconise the sounds it makes from fruit machine from years ago and tech way before the one in rovers.

Also in Only Fools and Horses, there's a scene in a cafe and there is a Barcrest Tic Tac Cash in the background. This is either the Batman episode or the Peckham Spring water one - Mother Nature's Son I think it's called.

I remembered myself that being in Modern Men episode.
This is a site for EMULATION purposes of older machines. Not playing strategies.
