Title: Worst Slot Game Ever!
Post by: reho33 on March 27, 2011, 05:49:38 PM
I am going to go out on a limb like Jason and ask the following : "What do you think the worst slot game ever is?"
My 1st vote would be for the game Hundred or Nothing.

This particular game of Fox-N-Hound. Not exciting. Top pay only 500

Maybe the original Lucky 7's

The multiplier versions are more interesting to me.

50 and 100 times pay games.. based on the fact that the multipliers hardly ever stop with a win.

I don't know about a "worst" slot machine, but I think the bonus round on the Double Diamond Run vision machine is pretty cheesy

Jackpot Jungle...my first slot.

Let me define the criteria: tackyness, infrequency of hits, plain old ugly factor, etc.

Jackpot Jungle...my first slot.

S+ crappy sound, monochrome reel strips, and it was tighter than Tom Thumb's ass.  It was boring to look at, boring to listen to, and boring to play.  But hey, we all have to start somewhere.

Yes, but several hundred dollars later, I'm starting to feel like the finish line is near.  Oh wait, how many times have I said that now?  LOL!

That pretty much describes every slot machine made!

For a guy who admittedly doesn't like slots, you spend an awful lot of time around them and the folks who do. :200-  :30- :208- :208- :208-

Bonus round on the Double Diamond Run qualifies under tackiness(cheesy)

For tackyness and ugly factor my vote goes to IGT's "generic slot" machine. A clone of Wild Cherry this game was black and white and the belly glass said SLOT MACHINE.

Wow really?  Was it an S2000 or an S+?  Any photos of said machine?  Were they abundant on the casino floor at any time?

I remembered seeing one of them on a casino floor once.  White glass with black text, white reel strips with black printing.  I've never been able to find a picture online because if you search for "Slot Machine" (which was the name of the game), it obviously brings up eight million results that aren't what you're looking for.

What a beauty.

That's it!  :47-
I saw one at the Colorado Belle in Laughlin a few years ago. Guess it was targeted to folks that buy bulk generic products?
Nice find Mah,  :259-

Speaking of MINTY, that is one heck of a rare kit, and it sounds like Jason is itching for it!!! Maybe he will go for it and get me his BORING, USED, OLD, OUTDATED MUMMY KIT! I did call Dibs on it! :88- :96- :200- :72- :72- :97- :208-

MAH, :259- for finding the PIC, I knew that I had a PIC somewhere, but I had not been able to find it yet! :279-

A while back I was looking for a genric belly glass. But not that generic.  :47-

Indeed, nice find -- I've never been able to find a picture of it for the reasons I mentioned earlier.


Title: Re: Worst Slot Game Ever!

To really make it plain, they should have made it with no sound at all!

It looks like a clone of Five Times Pay!

Anything Bally Evo and Hybrid takes the platform cake.

Maybe CDS is a runner up.

Well really any machine with a CD as it's source sucks....  Even the Atronic Emotions can be a pest....

I wonder if there was more than one version of the "Generic Slot"? :128-   :47- :30-


Title: Re: Worst Slot Game Ever!
Post by: knagl on April 05, 2011, 03:38:19 PM
I agree that the one pictured is a Five Times Pay clone.  Of note, it looks like there's a logo that isn't IGT's logo in the corner of the glass.  It's too small to tell, but perhaps it's Sunkist Graphics (http://www.sunkistgrfx.com/)?  Point being, I don't think we can blame IGT for creating that game.

Sure we can.  :72- :72- :72-
Not sure, but I believe that "logo" might be a fake bar code giving the machine that "generic" look.
But I am positive the one I saw at the Colorado Belle was a Wild Cherry clone. So there are more than game type. I had a pic of it but it was lost when the hard drive it was on failed.

I agree with you about the barcode, but look right below the barcode -- there's a logo that isn't IGT's.  It's also in the lower right corner of the upper round-top glass.

Your right, not an IGT logo. Hard to make out, Sunkist would be my first guess too.

I've been trying to find a picture of the Wild Cherry (or any other) generic slot glass, but haven't had any luck so far, either online or on my computer. :47- :30-
