Now if you have ever been to a pinball emulation site like vpforums you would have noticed that a big trend is that people are build pinball cabinets or "Cabs". This is essentially the cabinet of a pinball machine with a tv where the playfield would go. This setup makes the emulations pinball tables on the vpforums website to feel like playing a real table with working flipper buttons and plungers that read how far you pulled back electronically and the ability to nudge or bump the Cab and have it affect the ball just like with a real pinball (and for anyone who doesnt play pinball nudging a pinball is not the same as nudging a fruit machine, it involves phisically pushing the machine to change ball direction slightly). The same has been done for old arcade style video games like pacman ect know as video game cabs. Does this mean it would be possible to build a fruit machine cab? And to use the emulators and emulations on this site to play these fruit machines. Because there is a clear benifit that you can have multiple machines in the space of one and have it cost less than buying several fruities. Just a thought of mine. So could it be possible? Has it been done? And how would one go about it? Also are the DX layouts high enough resolution not to look horrible on the big screens? Sorry for all the questions but this could be a good idea.
OK, so I love fruit machines but I live in Canada. Thats a big problem. I know I could easily get a vegas style slot machine but they are boring compared to fruties. Same goes for pachislo, it just pales in comparison to the incredible hunk of plastic, technology and fun that is a fruit machine. So as you can imagine there is no changing my mind on getting one. The problem is, I LIVE IN CANADA!!!!!!!! And no, canada is not just some place where people live in igloos and eat fish. We are a very developped country and so I dont see why it is this hard to get a hold of a fruit machine. But I want to know how to anyway. Do I have to import it myself? (Something I have no idea how to do) Do I have to have a importing company or something, do I need relatives in the UK to bye one and ship it to me from there (by the way, i dont have any relatives in europe or near europe). How can I buy one and get it to Canada? How much would a fruit machine cost in Canadian anyway? Sorry for all the questions but I think I might be screwed! Help me!
