Well said at the end there lads, absolutely agree with you. A lot of people I’m sure don’t get that it’s not about the money playing these classic slots, that’s why they ask. They may think they are similar to the FOBTs and you’re out for the purpose of making a profit from these, but if they realise that these machines just are not about anymore, maybe they’ll understand. Don’t want to be ageist, but it’s probably people in their 20s asking that question, who have never experienced these slots whatsoever.
Money is important to a degree, mainly as a measure of how good or bad a machine has played. But, as for checking after each machine, how much you're up or down, then nah, can't be arsed with that 🤣
I think that question pops up from people of all ages if I'm honest, some it's just curiosity others it's more because they only see highlights. To me it's all just a little but of fun and provided I get some enjoyment from it I don't really care too much, that being said we both like to finish up but if one does significantly better it's just kebab time 😂
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines Absolutely agree with you both. If you’ve had a good day, a good laugh whether you come out up or down is neither here nor there. As long as you have money for this legendary kebab you speak of in Bognor, and hopefully I’ll be sampling in a few weeks time! 😂👍
Yeah been gambling all day and I’m £30/40 up that’s really good. Put it next to expenses and your down it’s for the thrill of it a trip away on the machines reminiscing. Btw did you notice Fun on the run wouldn’t go over £3 at the Airport I’ve seen a few like that Pub Program if not TT.
Great vid again boys ... blue moon came good at the end ... and as for win and loss ... keep your nose out ....I go for nostalgia... if i win great ... dont care if i loose ... its the memories... cheers boys
I've always been aware that nudging for a Jackpot set up is a very good sign that it might be streaking. However, if you go a long time without a Jackpot, it will start offering set ups before the streak, simply because it wants to pay a pot. That one that day was weird though, as it actually nudged for the jackpot, but wasn't streaking. It had gone a while without a jackpot, but didn't seem to be THAT due...
100% agree with the end lads although i do think theres always an automatic mental note in the back of the head once a few £ into something as of course you on some occasions like roller snakes jpms like that you will need to no weather to take a jackpot etc applies to a few others i think do you agree
Yes.... although I do lose track sometimes. I've often got to the point where I think, I'm a fair chunk into this, but not sure how much. Even on 10p Barcrests, they take forever to board, and my mind goes numb, and things just become a blur 🤣
Absolutely devastated, seen old games there that I used to play and there is none in my town now. The Gambler, Indian Jones and High Spirit's 😢 good watch all the same.
thats what its about lads fun and if you make a profit its a bonus (kebab time 😁) nice run on miami dice 👍 and wtf with that blue moon not spinning in jp? 1st time ive seen that 😵💫
It's a bug in that, and some Project's programming. If it was naturally going to spin a win in, even when it's holding after a nudge, then the winning spin seems to take priority. Reflex has done it a few times.
More enjoyable excellence there lads, most appreciated. Nice to hear you play for fun and nostalgia (although I already knew this), if and when I get there, that will be my reasons too, won't care if I lose £100+ as long as I get to enjoy and relive the good old days for a short while. Regarding Andy Capp, had me panicking for a moment JH, that pot was so far away, didn't think 147 was going to be enough lol :p :p
Don't think me and Jus could sustain making any vids if we were taking spankings everywhere we go lol. Mr W would telll you that the maximum needed would be 45 nudges assuming only 1 jackpo per reel...........I know he will be reading this to pick up on there being more than 1 red 7 on Andy Capp on case I slipped up!
I am the same about profit or loss, I play for enjoyment, I make an odd fuck up lol. But I dont keep track all time. I do sometimes say how much im in on a machine when playing. I count up when i get back home. What i set off with and what i go home with. Includes meals, drinks etc
For me JD it is hard enough making the content without me needing to concern myself with anything else. Its all for the enjoyment, we do often have a count up at the end of a day or trip but it willl rarely cover the costs of doing it especially when you factor in how many miles we drive, hotels, food, parking etc etc etc
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines Exactly. Pound coins going in and out of pockets like mad. As i told Jus a few months ago... All the trips last year including arcades,travel, food etc cost me 200 quid. I wouldnt have cared if it was 2k after all the trips i had. I enjoyed myself and thats the main thing. Not got out as much this year so far but still half a year left haha
@@JDSlotsI must admit JD, if you're ever prepared to divulge how you do your trips so cheap, then I'm happy to listen. Or do you just have loads of groupies, now that you're famous? 🤣
Fun Fact - I'm in Taiwan explaining to a date a bit about my personal history and she was really curious about my gambling days. She asked if I could show her the machines I used to play - this channel certainly came in Hardy, I mean handy
@@mekkimaru2365 Oh, I'm always aware of JH's A-List celebrity status, and how he and his alumni are in a league that mere mortals such as me, can only dream about 😂
It never came to my mind to know what you won or losted. I love see the old machine I use to play and just don't get them no more I would love it you could tell me where about you are or leave post code for use to find these place but Win or lose it the love of the machine Keep doing what your doing love the videos
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines that would be great because me and my brother watch your videos and we just don't have them around use Boring Stockport lol 🤣🤣 do you know close one too Stockport/ Manchester
@@JamesHardyFruitMachines and snap sk area too. Shame your friend won't open a shop with all them fruit machine he haves. Still hoping one day you message say he getting rid of ( life a beach ) lol 🤣🤣
Great video James and jus,, I would worry about people asking about winning/losses,,, most people who watch the channel do so for the retro machine play and know it’s about the game play,,we are hoping to get the agc license though for Bathgate any week now,, fingers crossed 🎰🎰🎰
Very true I agree with Chill slots not about always making money but enjoying yourself and if you make a profit all the better besides Retros are better than Other Arcades you get better value for money anyway Great Video Guys all the best
Gone are the days you could play endlessly and never lose even then you would have been making to much to record 😅 now everything needs pushing 😂 can't take cash with us when where gone ❤
Days of making a living from older machines is long gone, it's all just a bit of fun and nostalgia these days. Retro arcades are the only places left where you can actually get some value for your money.
Late is great 😂Another epic sesh for the HarshdyFiles 💿 👌
Later than late here pal but better late than never.
Yous both do a brilliant job lads, this by far my favourite channel 😎😎
Thank you Alan

You are welcome pal
The blue moon has been chipped, so that the nudge reel spins every credit. So it looks like it's streaking. It's harder to tell, and it's deliberate.
It is an unusual chip, but it doesn't normally play like that. Thankfully, it wasn't costly, it just took that £19 bank back, then streaked properly
Ahh a hardy n winter vid, happy days😂, top class yet again lads👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it pal
Cheers pal
@@GuruJus everytime jus👍👍👍
Great content as always lads ill never tire of watching the classics the intro was a bit lively lol
We overshot on the intro 😂 turned into an outro
Jus im very glad you've seen the light😅( re Blue Moon ) when talking about it streaking you said the words " see it's nudging for jackpot "

@@davidmellish3295 Fair enough. That nudge for £6 is quite hard to explain though 🤣
