Title: Millanary Post by: TZtech on July 23, 2010, 05:06:07 PM Hello All
Dont know if these ever made it to the USA. Have never seen them mentioned here or in the slot tech forum. This is the first time i have worked on one so will post some pics and some more info as I go through them. Universal (which became Aruze) holds the transmissive LCD patent together with WMS gaming (but I think WMS implemented it better in their platform. Ian Title: Re: Millanary Post by: uniman on July 23, 2010, 09:58:09 PM No, the Millanary has not appeared in the U.S. Seen them advertised on the Aruze site. It looked like they applied the transmissive LCD to reel games from the 80's and 90's. :47-
Those slant tops are not pretty. I would agree that WMS has done a much better job. Thanks for posting, never seen the slants. The one pictured is "Double Nutty Jackpot", right? That is an 1980's game. Title: Re: Millanary Post by: TZtech on July 28, 2010, 03:34:15 PM Hello Uniman
Yes they tried to update the most popular Universal eel games here to the newer technology but never did do very well. Comes in a upright cabinet as well but dont have one of those around. Personally I hate any slant Top machine - They are always a pain in the ass to repair (Hence my current profile Pic - Uni Sunrise on its way to slot machine hell :96-). What interesting on this is that you have a feature called rescue pay - If you dont hit a combo in a certain amount of spins it pays the rescue pay amount. Hoping to get these going tomorrow. More pics to follow. Ian Title: Re: Millanary Post by: uniman on July 28, 2010, 09:06:21 PM Aruze has a few video games on Vegas slot floors right now. They too have the rescue pay feature. Pay so much and if you don't get the bonus round in a certain number of spins you get it anyways. Does not seem to be popular from the folks I talked to who were playing it.
I really like the graphics on the dragon game they have out. They have video slot based on the former rock band Queen. I played it for awhile, never hit the bonus. Won't play it again.

Ian Actually I liked the Ultra slant tops that I used to own. The two hand holes in the back and the set of wheels made them easy to move. I used to strip them down and repaint the entire cabinet inside and out. Very easy to disassemble and reassemble. And I liked the fact that the reels, strips, reel glass, and the top glass were interchangable with uprights. |
