Title: Gamemaker vs. Gamemaker Plus
Post by: StatFreak on February 20, 2009, 09:43:55 AM
Just a simple question: What's the difference?

Never heard of a plus.  There were 2 different series as I recall, the 7000 and the 7200 series.  What is this about?

I saw a machine with top glass that read "Game Maker Plus" that is supposed to be a multi-denomination Bally GM. I was wondering if that was what the "Plus" stood for, or if there was more to it than that?

Stat, very interesting question with no answer as of yet. To make it even more curious, in my search Happ has the lcd conversions and shows two different numbeers, one for Gamemaker and one for Gamemaker Plus! :103-

With the different prices at Happ for the 2 different 13" LCD's I am wondering if the plus is for a Touchscreen version, there were early model Bartops that used a 13" monitor that were non touchscreen, I have had many GM Keno Plus games that were no different, I am curious on this, there was also a large monitor version GM at the same time of the 13"

I have a Gamemaker Plus.  It has a 13" touch screen and is multi-denomination for all 10 games.  I've never owned the "non-Plus" version of the GameMaker so I'm not sure of the differences between the Plus and the non-Plus versions.

Hope this helps.

It appears from Stats message and yours that the "Plus" must refer to the multi-denomination feature of the Mains. That is the only difference I have been able to discern in this thread.

At this point I tend to agree. My top glass is copyrighted 2001 and reads "Multi-Denomination". The first multi-denomination mains that I know of were the 22's and they are also copyrighted 2001.
