Hi,
I remember as a kid (Late 1970's early 1980's) playing a Bell Fruit machine, It had a Jackpot of I think a £1 which was paid out in tokens when you had three Bells in any combination.
There were other smaller winning combinations which paid out cash, a bell used to ring on winning the Jackpot.
My question is is there anywhere I can get a emulation of this old machine??
Thanks in advance,

The machine your refering to sounds like 10 up it used to have 4th reel this was activated with any pair win, and used to spin to either plus 10 stop or 50p, this machine was an early not a microprosseor based unit. it was electromicanicle based and is there for cannot be emued. The first microposessor based BFM's were the likes of firecracker, gamblit & (upstairs & downstairs AKA Reel Gambler). sadly this very early tech is not emulaterble either.

If, as cliffc says, it was 10 up, try this:

but there were plenty of others along the same line so step back and forth through the gallery. Great nostalgia trip if nothing else!
