Afternoon guys,

Thinking of getting another machine - was initially looking for decent low tech, but Ive noticed that Jackpots that Rock & Roll seem to be going cheap at the moment so might be tempted to get that instead. Sounds like a good theme, but never actually seen or played one before. Anyone played this one, and if you have, do you think it would be a good machine to have?

Cheers,

Mark

Yeah go for it Mate, I like this Machine, loads of features and lots to do on the feature board. One thing, make sure you have lots of coins to play it as it takes so much cash in seconds:)

nope , too high and too much !

[roderz]

nope , too high and too much !

Shouldn't be a problem if there fitted with the latest mk2 psu with the new circuit board fitted,
but a lot of so called 'distributors' seem to like ripping them out and putting old crap in instead.
Then the customer sends us a 8 year old psu back for replacement !
which we know has not been fitted by us in the factory, takes the p**s really.

Really? I can do you a 3Kva 600volt PSU ( have to be 3 phase though!), or how about a 200amp 12 volt DC one?

Well spotted..but Global machines run on Epoch Technology which no emulators can handle at present.

Yeah..we know Magga the guys dont mean any offence by thier comments..it is meant in a tongue in cheek sarcastic way.

Thats the way these forums are..we are all into having a laugh and taking the piss out each other..as well as the more serious side of the forums.

Hope ye can join in the fun...and not take these comments to heart.

[magga]

Ok no worries!

Out of interest though regarding global machines not being emulated, how come Jiggin' In The Riggin' has been emulated?

[magga]

Ahh ok, cheers. So it's just epoch Globals that can't then?

[magga]

ok, cheers
