Can you please ask why you turned a reasonable thread into some moronic attempt at a particularly feeble riddle?
I think that Pachislo machines are stunning, I'd love to buy one, although unfortunately I think that to convert one to accept UK coinage would be too expensive.
Why convert it? Well, the way I see it is that if you play it on Tokens, you'd either need to run a '10p per token' exchange, and trust yourself to change in and out correctly, or stick with Tokens. On Tokens what you would basically have is a very attractive machine which will achieve nothing, other than depreciation. At least when running on UK coinage you can save enough in them to cover the initial outlay.
Oh, and Jos, can you please explain what you meant by the above post?

Wonder what the odds on these machines are, as looking at the auction it looks like they payout 300 or 400 tokens for a jp, that would be one heck of a large jackpot if it was converted to pound coins!

Well, if as I think I said earlier, each token was replaced by 10p if you managed to calibrate the validator to take them, that would make say 10p Play / £30 JP. If that sounds far too awful to play, consider a £300 JP machine on £1 a play. Should be more lively than 25p a play.
Having said that - as I understand it a Pachislo machine is a true-skill stopping of each reel individually, so it wouldn't matter what the stake was. I'd assume the JP would be something like 250xLine Bet, i.e 10p Play / £25 JP.

sorry if i have got this wrong, but you skill stop each reel on the machine instead of it spinning, and its true skill? so that is a jp every spin then (if you are good). how would the machine possibly make any money?

True but think of the odds should the reel be spinning so fast you cannot actually see them pass...16 Fruits on 3 reels, that means that it's:-
16x16x16=4096 to 1 ...... then 4 reels this increases to 65536 to 1
So even at true skill..the odds are still on the machines side.

you can buy conversion kits or some machines actually have the facility built in to convert them to our style of p[lay. ie the reels stop on there own.. but it is pure random reel stopping......i have been trying toget THE TERMINATOR and DIE HARD pachislos for years after playing em in hong kong.......they directly use samples and i am quite sure they were driven by pc,s sitting inside the units them selves............

I bought one of these recently, and after a bit of thought came up with a cheap solution to reliably convert to 10p.
Cost= empty coke can and a bit of bostic glue.
I cut a small a rectangle out of the coke can, and bent it neatly over the inside of the coin mech with a bit of glue, (the metal plate that the coin slides down) to give the 10p that extra touch of height.

Sorry to bump up an old thread but im really tempted to get one of these.
The ones with the LCD screens are stunning, having mini games and telling a story throughout, great, i seen one on ebay which if you shoot vilians you get rewarded with a softcore anime video, wow.
Not to expensive and easy to be courierd.

im looking at theese on ebay at the moment but token play really puts me off.
any chance of a pic or diagram how you made it take the 10ps if i could do this it might just give me that incentive to buy one as theese machines look dazling
