funny you should say that. oddly enough I got a Winsprint(none runner from Sheffield)off eBay last year for £50 buy it now(I said to the my other half that it felt like going back 15 - 20 years). cabinet was mint too and as it was an original Frog IT(with the 20p tube) it’s now been returned to its original state. I take your point though, this was definitely a lucky one off plus I had to check twice as I couldn’t believe the price along with I not being snapped up. getting that feeling when you are driving away from the collection site with a classic in the back of the van). I haven’t had that feeling in over a decade.

There's still the odd bargain out there, you just gotta keep an eye out. And be prepared to travel if you see something that you like. Unfortunately the days of picking up Win Sprint for £100 in Loot are long gone!

In many ways, I did. I still don't consider myself back full time, but I've sort of been nudged back by seeing what the likes of John Parker et al are doing. If I can lend a pair of hands or a set of eyeballs than great. A certain person's video series has provoked my interest in the old code, too.

Give that man a cigar!

JPM Reel Magic Fruit Machine.

I've got a nifty nudge .not sure how many are left but there were three about quite some years ago now but two were broken up . They came In 5p and 10p formats.

Seeing as I can't change the account name to agemame to match DIF, I thought I'd reintroduce myself. I've mainly tried to emulate the video techs and the most novel stuff, but as I look through I realise how much of this could still disappear, so I'm trying to get back into the resource hunt.

I'd say it is.

Not sure if that's the Gottlieb pinball System80?

IIRC it just popped up on eBay one Sunday evening and I was on my way to Sheffield in less than 24 hours. I remember the seller messaged me saying “you know it doesn’t work’ and they couldn’t believe I was going to pay £50 for it. The machine was sold when the daughter was cleaning out her dads house before selling and she said it had been there since she was a kid(big posh house too).

Couldn’t agree more! I like yourself don’t look anymore, I will not pay the prices being asked!

Nice machine Nic. Used to love playing this. There was one in my local arcade, but kids (cough) used to rub their feet on the carpet and give the coin mech some static, causing it to payout 10p. Soon got removed from the arcade floor alas.

Great to see you back no one truly leaves.

I know there's been discussions over this, and Chris certainly worked it out before his passing, but is there anything that would help with the PCB parts identification or similar? Everything I've seen indicates ACE filed the part numbers off, so I'm flying blind trying to get MAME's emulation of the same working. My goal is to try to get the video stuff working better, but having been out for so long, I don't know what's been going on and where. Would just hate to lose that knowledge to time.

I recall the thread you speak of and unfortunately it ran into a dead end I did find this of super sidewinder that has some pics of the boards maybe that could be a clue?

Hello. Do you remember Droopy's line ? You know what, I'm happy.... The machine is good working, all buttons are now active 😂😂😂. I searched for a long time, I could see roughly where the problems came from but my knowledge of electronics was too weak to understand. So I did many tests. Do you remember the drawing about the 7 buttons, the contacts for stop 1, 2 and 3 and collect risk are between P1- 29, P1-25, P1-32 P1- 16 and P1-1 and for start, gamble, take a lot between P1-32, P1-29, P1-25 and P1-2. P1-1 was good working but not P1-2. So I tried to reverse P1-1 and P1-2, and made many other tests and ultimatly, I removed IC25 (CD4538) and the seven buttons started towork fine. Now I can even test the machine with the switches B8 or B2, even the coils.... I ordered new CD4538 and I hope the machine continue to work well with a new IC25.

Thanks for the pic, This board sadly, is not compatible with my machine.

Yep agreed the 20p play £150 game is much better .use to own that version .

Yes its on 20p play £150 jackpot most wins are double and plays a much better game , you move a wire in the machine to alter the jackpot and price per play

The GALs have their own internal fuses which most manufacturers burn at the end of programming to stop people copying the chip. I couldn't tell you if they were in your particular tech, you could be lucky though? In earlier JPM CPU cards (SYS80) the 14k version had a PAL which wasn't protected but even earlier (MPS1) was, work that one out!

Can't view this unfortunately.

Think the ram is surface mount, I have 6 of these boards, there are 2 types for JPM and blueprint which uses flash card

In my watchlist, anyone got a scalpel? 😀

Eachway Shuffle is a JPM machine so won't be MPU3. Can you post up a picture?

Excellent al I don't blame you as frog it is a better game and looks better too .

Cheers nick i certainly did turn it back into a Frog It(and thanks to phill for sourcing me a couple of missing bits).

Bury St Edmunds ronnie so yeah it's a few miles away !😕

There's a free Flash Cash on Marketplace, it's a bit of a fucking shed with bits missing but ideal for spares. And it's free!

I think they've already been collected. I'm always looking, there's seldom any thing of reasonable price. Occasionally a clubber that someone wants £450 for.

Here you go.. Jolly Imperial V(1).zip

Often there are no manuals or diagrams. The method I use myself is tracing the wires, where do they go? is there current on the wires compare with another string? Follow the wire back to the motherboard, to the right pin and see if you can trace to which Transistor. Transistors go bad over time. are there burnd risistors? also check if your lights are intact. and if you have continuity in the wires (no break) also check the diodes, if they are bad the string may not work either.

Been numerous times, everything in there is bang on from classic machines, bowling and food.

Hey Baz, these any good for you? If not then let me know and i can scan them in at work tomorrow in PDF.

I did already add the link in my forum signature over on Dif: Not exactly one of my projects since it's simply a one-off upload of @Geddy's incredible work, but it's such a valuable Community Resource I felt it warranted a place among the other project links! I did also post a new thread about it in the Dif Resources section: https://www.desertislandfruits.com/forum/index.php?/topic/16850-fruit-machine-rom-archive/ I just looked it up, and there's no way to post a raw URL link in a google drive, you can only post links to other google drives. So no way to create a direct link right now. I've added a text doc, with just a link to the Community Drive so far... I can add more links, open to suggestions

I saw someone trying to track down some ROMs the other week over on Desert Island Fruits, so I've mirrored @Geddy's big fruit machine ROM collection to the Internet Archive. I can periodically upload a fresh copy to overwrite the old one... since we've got the publicly accessible Community Drive (see Dif for more info on this project), this seemed like a good companion resource Link is here: https://tinyurl.com/3jhzbueb

As promised, ROMs attached for Club Supreme by ACE. ROMs are M2764s. I have verified all these as good. Not sure if we have this version, hopefully someone can update me? Thanks [440] Club Supreme.zip
