When do arcade machines pay out, the truth behind Blackpool’s flashing lights.

Hello everybody it’s Christian YouTube Daddy here guess where I am again oh yes here I am retro slots yet again I was bored it’s Thursday it’s started to get dark there not a lot going on so I thought I’d come enoy the ginger one now look he’s taking the machine away now we

Got a bit of a surprise here because the machine he’s taken away from there is going to end up in my place so done a little bit of ducking and Diving a little bit of uh swapping and changing on machine and this machine’s going to be mine and there it is there’s the

Broken down machine it’s a party time that’s going to end up at the Las Vegas at my arcade now it’s not going to end up there until next season because uh I’ve only got four weeks on the end of season so it’s going to be in here and

Here he is the man himself a Ginger Ninja hi guys so I was just telling the people that we’re doing swapsies bit bit of nud nud wink wink swapsy swapsies so this is going to end with my place and you’re having a couple of machines from my place aren’t you I

Am yeah he’s having spend spend spend H what’s the want and the Bex so they’re coming over through here so if you like Ben Ben Ben and Bex they’ll be over here and if you like party time that will be at my place so this is a party time

Three player as I said guys it won’t be happening until uh the beginning of next season because it’s I can’t bother to move stuff around this season and there’s only four weeks of it left for me so what’s going on here look at this he’s

Got lots of bits and pieces so for all of you all you uh machine gigs look at this is like a gigs Paradise isn’t it we’ve got Hoppers we’ve got mpus we got power supplies and we got screen we got everything in here this is the heart and

This is the back of a red hot roll I got one of these which needs which needs some work doing on it so mine it’s exactly like this except for I need a mpu 4 replacing on mine which is one of them down there and that bit there is the game

To so as I’ve said before I’ll show you I’ll show you what happen that’s the co back hold that’s the coin B where the coin comes in that’s the tube that it goes down to that’s the wheels the telling the wheels there’s the power supply and there’s the motherboard and that’s

Basically it on a machine there’s bger all else to a machine is there not really it’s just the main leads that come through the machine itself so we can have a have a bit more of an explanation right so if we look at this one it’s even better than the Simpsons

Because the Simpsons have different slave boards so this is coet line which takes your Co which tells the machine what Co it is where to put it and how to put it um we have they’re all color coded really in a sense right so blue is lamps all your lamp drivers

Green is your photo which is your Optical drivers for your reels and they just run straight down into the mpu 4 at the bottom obviously this is a breakout board in the link off for them lamps them lamps lamps and it’s got a belly door so yeah this um also yellow is

Displays we have a orange and black just underneath the board there um might be able to see it orange and block leads their switches And door switches to be fair is quite easily an easy job but it’s quite complicated with all the wiring so explain to people obviously I know how it works but explain to people what happens with with the uh The Hoppers in other words when the money goes into The Hoppers how they

Fell up and when they they fall they then kick it into the back and down the bottom and stuff like thatl that right so this is a solenoid machine cuz it’s that old right so once the tube gets full as you might be able to see this

Little cut offs in the tubes so when the tube becomes full the co come down the slide and they come straight into the bottom when you get a win of say3 it’ll come out of the tube and until the 3 gone back into the tube the

Money that goes over the3 so say you put the fourth one in it’ll go down to the bottom same with the 20 PS all of the change it 2B coins 50s and 10 so explain to the people what I’m trying to explain to the people is this is why people

Believe that if money’s going down the back it’s due to pay out it’s not actually right but people believe that it’s it’s it’s a mythical kind of I I understand that it’s mythical kind of term that once it’s full it’s due to pay not necessarily you could have a machine

And you could be playing it for x amount of time and was full when you got on it um and it’s not done anything at all but there are machines where they have been full and they willay it’s the machine being full or not doesn’t determine if it’s going to pay

Or not machine can have 0 and0 p in it and still give it a big bank if it wants to it just depends where the program is at that time where the cycle is so take for ex example party time it could pay 50 Quid out 60 quid and it’ have no

Money in the hopper cuz that was its float at the time for example and you’ve come along put a couple of quid in it got of 2030 in the bank and you press collect and it’s right one it that’s way it is that’s where it is

In the cycle if it wants to pay it will pay if it doesn’t want to pay it won’t pay so so money the money situation in that sense is it doesn’t matter if it’s full or not if it’s going to pay it will pay you absolutely because what I’m trying to

Say you already hear people and I heard it so many times and I’ve tried to explain to people that just because the money is going down the back doesn’t mean it’s going to pay out now what you also have on the new kind of machines or random number generators right so there

Your category B3 um some category C’s have random games so real B Mo most real based games are compensated there two different terms one’s compensated game and one’s a random game a compensated game is we’ll take for example this is how it’s best to explain it two cups one’s got a hole

In it one’s not got a hole in it you can pour water Al into your first cup without the hole and what does it do it overfills so that’s when the machine pays out and that’s compensation yeah cuz it has to pay random is pouring water into the cup

With a hole at the bottom and it just keeps coming down and coming down and coming down it doesn’t have to pay a thing so random games will pay I know they have a baseline percentage but they can pay a jackpot and then pay another jackpot another jackpot and

Another jackpot in the save in the space of so many spins but they can also pay absolutely nothing for ages and you don’t have to pay because there’s no compensation there to state that the machine has to pay so what I’m trying to get at guys is if you think that you’re

Go if you’re going to play a game yeah you’re investing money to that game and you go to get your money back or you go to win your money yeah you’re not it’s a game of chance it’s a game of chance but game of fun if you’re willing to have a bit of

Fun you pay in a sense you’re paying for entertainment and the entertainment value is here in the small businesses in Blackpool at the moment small Amusement arcades like Peter Happy Days Chris at the Las Vegas Burger Bar here at retro slots G at Whit sze we all have a working understanding

Of these types of games and value for money that’s what it’s based on and if you want to have fun come down it’s all about fun so my pointing about this is some people have this my that they’re going to I know how to win machines I’m

Always going to win you’re not the reality of it is you’re paid for entertainment and whether you win or lose has got no real bearing on how you play the machine it’s purely about luck you could have somebody coming before you take take a massive jackpot and you

Could come in straight afterwards and put £50 in the machine or you can put 10 p in the machine and win a jackpot it is all about luck but here at retro slots we’ve brought some of the machines back that people have enjoyed they don’t produce anymore and Chris has got some

Dan’s got some and Pete’s got some and we’re and we’re all kind of Bas of retro music music on in the background yeah I’ll I’ll we going turn that music off I’m just going to get them to turn the music off so we don’t get uh uh we don’t

Get copyrighted on it so I’m just going to turn there we go so we’ll come back in a second so as I said guys yeah that’s basically how machines work so just because it’s going down the back which is down them tubes down there which go to the bottom doesn’t

Necessarily mean that you’re going to win yeah please remember treat machines as entertainment cuz that’s what they are they yeah and we all we want you to do is come here and have a little bit of fun yep we actually have a new addition to Retro slots SP pool if you’re ever in

The area and Mr like to come and see it okay oh look at that Trivial Pursuit I had one those years ago That’s a classic isn’t it that’s absolutely banging that is look at that that really is old school isn’t it it took me three and a half weeks to make that

Work so as you can see we’ve only been for walk around here that’s a basic so when you going to get your bingo machine going I see you got a zingy we have got a zing and we are awaiting a new screen so it’s a screen that’s gone on it a

Screen that’s gone on it yeah okay so you’ll be able to come and play zingy here but don’t forget we have got a zingy at my place and Pete got them at his place as well so there’s plenty of them about and Viva Las Vegas oh we got

Loads of them here haven’t we right I hope you found that interesting a bit of an explanation on how machines work and also an Insight that that is going to end up at my place next season and some from my place are going to end up over
