great vid lads and you cannot miss the escourt mexico orange ewn what martin used to have 😁 looks like this place has even a better selections of slots now 👍 how was paddy and did you have a full english?
Another great vid Lads 👍 I have a question though, the likes of cloud 999 before my time great machines but curious to why they were £4.80 jackpots and not an even £5 Jackpot.
down to the jackpots of that era, token payouts etc really, believe it or not these got bastardised to ticket payouts somewhere down the line, that's really madness that people did that to them.
They would have been £5 token and £2.50 cash. However, at the time, machines had just started paying out 20p coins, thus meaning they couldn't pay £2.50. So they made it £2.40 cash £4.80 token
@AdamF8 absolutely welcome. Loads of private sellers don't bother. Loads of machines on FB marketplace in various conditions and machines on ebay from both licenced and unlicenced sellers as well as businesses that sell them. Hope you find what you are after.
Being a fruity gambler and originally from kings lynn, no way the venue will survive in current location. With everything up the coast moving to redemption, if you find a small unit Hunstanton etc, sure you’d make a load
Question time james, that pot of gold is that a remake of a machine called "gold reserve" well i think it was called that. Im sure someone here will know. Grew up in skeggy myself and they was everywhere... only £5jpt unfortunately though
Gold Reserve was made by MDM and Pot of Gold was made by Ace, they also made Robin Hood which is a direct clone. I have said Gold Reserve would be a bit of a rip off of Ace/JPM's layout if anything. Other similar machines were done along this sort of layout too.
Yes your right about the ace layout mate, happy memoires 🎰 i go down to kings bus station often, but i think a road trip down south is in need this year. Need my 90s fix 💪
@Simon Oak Maidstone and Bognor are next level for slotting action. Still some older stuff round Skeggy but I guess that's slowly going. When they all go someone will open a retro 😂😂😂
Yes mate this year I'll take the trip with ma bro, retros are my kryptonite. Slowly haha i used to visit skeggy for the 6weeks and easter break, but that stopped a good 5 years back too many wannabe players and a fraction of fruits compared to what used to be there. Not worth the trip for me but kings is good for a fix as it's only an hour from me.
If you love old fruit machines so much, and I watch a lot of the old retro fruit videos including yourself, then why not be a bit gentler with the buttons rather than slapping them?
I get this sort of comment sometimes, I have never in my life damaged one single button, I'm naturally a bit heavy handed but they were designed to go in pubs and they are hard to damage.

@@JamesHardyFruitMachines ok no probs. You definitely know way more than me about fruit machines, no doubt whatsoever. Like you said, it’s come up before. It just looks and sounds pretty heavy handed when a gentle press would be what I would do. No probs 👍🏻
Just can't help how you do it, this is maybe 30 years worth of how I press the buttons, but they are fairly robust little units and designed for the environment they live in. Only way they tend to get damaged is when someone does it intentionally.
How’s about a breakfast 🍳 vlog as well 👍
I'm not sure anyone wants that! I'll try to remember the next decent brekky I have
Yes please love a brekkie blog
@@arronfrost2872 I just love the brekki, @Hypalinx is the man for food and drink vlogs 🤣
I've watched the first 5 minutes and saved this to watch later as already I know I will enjoy this one when I've got the time! 😃👊💯
Thanks for sharing some good old fruit machines!
Glad you enjoyed the vid, plenty more classics on the channel.
At last, a genuine reason to visit Kings Lynn 😂

@@JamesHardyFruitMachines it’s from Monty python (as you’re probably more than aware on the I.M lol) 😅
Last time he was that late, Pauline Fowler had never lost any takings 😂
All the way to worksop for an extreme! That's a bit extreme!
It was on the way to somewhere 😁
Tell you what is bad on that big breakfast James, the excellent button panel paint job.
Yeah, was not the best but I do enjoy them on £4 esp when they do their run.
3:35 "You can't Park there Sir"
Ahhh super was wondering today when the next video was gonna be..... that's my next hour sorted nice 1 lads :)
Enjoy pal, some ups and downs in this one, long vid too

Thanks Alan, one of my home machines is coming very very soon.
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines can't white to see it I've Got a new machine coming hopefully next week
great to see the big breakfast machine !! Do you remember a national lottery slot with feature. i used to play it a lot. £6 token jackpot
There is one in Maidstone and has been for some time
First time I've see a cloud 9 hold after win Jus.
Yeah, it's rare, but can do it. Probably less common than on 777 heaven
...long go on Dr who mate!
she was broken sadly, however its a game I rarely sit on for long periods, wouldn't mind seeing one on tokens
💥👍🏽👍💥😉
great vid lads and you cannot miss the escourt mexico orange ewn what martin used to have 😁
looks like this place has even a better selections of slots now 👍
how was paddy and did you have a full english?
Nah mate, had a brew and stayed a couple of hours before heading down to Maidstone.
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines keep up the good work you and jus, looking forward to the next one 👍
@@Crazy-Reels loads more to come pal
Love to see Fruit Explosion on a proper ROM package, not a kiddies fiver one. They paid and took big on £10 or £15
Had one at Bens for a bit but because it didn't have a battery on board it was always too far from the run as a ram reset.

Great start 2 the new year👍 thanks lads great video that rollercoaster is shite😞
Yeah they are awful those Electra rebuild cabs
@James Hardy Fruit Machines there rr shit mate🙄
If we wanted to buy a fruity to own do we need a special license or something like it? 🤔
No, you need a permit to sell machines but not to buy them.
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines Cool thankyou 😁👌

Great old school arcade where's this location pal
King's Lynn bus station, title does all the work on this one 😂
Great vid lads but! Please change the intro music sounds like cats on heat.
My daughter made it for me as a present, you'll just have to skip it if you don't like it as no plans to change for a while.

tbh anything on that coast that isn't ticket redemption would do really well.

Sometimes you need both hands for example to hit chancel, to do some skills etc.
