--- Quote from: danny_galaga on June 23, 2004, 05:48:16 am ---those things are an utter rip-off. in australia they have become incredibly popular, partly due to an australian manufacturer which produces something like 20% of the WORLDS poker machines. cynical industry, im surprised they havent got an atm slot on the machine already. or some way for pensioners to put their cheque straight into the machine...
if you have no chance of winning money i dont know why you would want to play an emulation. but its great that emulating them has shown how rigged they are .

Well im in australia and i agree that its shocking how many poker machines are around.
I am a bit surprised tho my nan would win 95% of the time when she goes out she usually wins over $100 for the night :)
she very lucky women i tell ya she must know when the computer is read to dish out ;)
For some reason i think that there is alread a ATM kinda thing built in.
I'm sure they have a card that u can and it calculates the total into your account and they take it out of your account.
altho i could be wrong :)
I think the pokies are set to let u win $2 or so then keep making u big higher to lose it.
if so it be great to work out the time it dishes out ;)

Are u gonna build 1? I was thinking of getting a old run down poker machine and then put a monitor inside with a PC but after playing the emulator it didnt seem worth it. Altho it prob be good if u found another emulator/simulator :)

I have had boards for those games. They have a payout % you can set by dipswitch.
I talked to a guy in Alabama. He said a kid took one of those radios you get a walmart and keyed it up by one of the new machines and it caused it to payout bigtime.
He took the kid in the back room and had a talk with him to find out what he was doing. He said he got the radio and found that most of his new machines would actually even go into test mode when the mike was keyed.
Video Poker machines are outlawed in TN, and most other states. You see the boards from time to time on ebay.
I have a couple of empty video poker machines I got at the auctions for cheap. I was going to cut the bottoms of them off and make them into little Jamma machines with 13" monitors to sell. Kids love them and parents pay $300 to $500 for them at the auction.

I bought my wife a Williams touch screen video slot machine "Winning Bid" ( you can own any games in TX). I have three separate boards and 5 different sets of game chips for it. It's a lot of fun and both of our families love to play it.
On the WMS machines, the percentage is set by the program chip installed and cannot be changed on the fly. You actually have to remove the chip, change it, and reset the program.
It would be interesting to have them emulated, but I really don't see that happening. You think arcade game companies have money to spend hunting down emulators? Think how much the gambling industry has!
