Comes home today. I forgot to take pictures of this WEIRD beast, but it has a Pyramid shaped candle (it's coming from the "Luxor" here in Vegas.
Bizzare machine, has 5 reels, eats six nickels at a time. Running a 16Mhz board it's kinda slow to respond.It's in good shape...BLUE cabinet, red and blue reels.
It has two progressive meters in the top box. This will be a good study project on progressive controllers. They do light up, the top one shows a $ sign, sometimes shows a C1 while the lower one shows a 0.00 on it. All the progressive crap is in there "Mikon" as well as the player tracking controller too.
This is my *FIRST* machine with a progressive meter, i know NOTHING about them,so this will be a learning experiance.

Pictures to follow.......

Kirk,
There's another fella here trying to hook up his double progressives.
It would be fantastic if you can post high res pictures of how
 it might be hooked up so we can figure out how to make it work.
The "weird"  Luxor machine you're getting...will it be a IGT S2000 by any chance?

It's a S+, weird huh? Was pretty advanced for it's time.Has a standard 16 Mhz board in it....
I will post pictures of the controller(s) both appear to be identical as well as the displays. Same boards, but differant sized LED's. The top display is a lot bigger than the bottom.

Is now home....
Pictures after some Windex and a rag. machine is NOT yet shopped out. Was purchased "Parts Complete" and running.
It needed the DBV145 tossed in the garbage and a DBV200 in it's place.Front bill validator bezel was missing.
CC-16D is in it, takes nickels,bills and the hopper has a nickel wheel in it (works). it runs! now to clean it up and possibly
make the "Progressive Display" do something

Side view......

Built this for a neighbor....a Wild Cherry. Seems her 84 year old mom recently died. When they would bring her to Las Vegas she would make a beeline past ALL the new machines for a Wild Cherry. This was her favorite machine.
In her honor I built this for the couple, so mom can be at home playing the machine...forever
I installed the Wild Cherry 5 coin glass the reel strips (new) and made it a 25 cent machine.Also purloined the correct bellyglass.It's in a VERY nice looking "Woodgrain" formica cabinet.
I'm tempted to put a random timer in it..so it plays itself from time to time....

That's the first time I've ever seen a 5 reel S+...
I knew they were capable of handling it because of the 5 resistors on the 10 and 16 MHz boards.
You're the first I ever seen actually get a 5 reel kit! Congratulations...!!!
The Bible only goes up to 4 reels...if you could get the chip numbers and more info out of it...
you would be the first the enter a 5 reel game in the NLG Bible!

That's the same game I played at the Colorado Belle about three years ago. It too was a nickle machine with the two progressives. Long gone now.
Nice find Kirk!  applause

Cool stuff, Kirk.  Be careful with those chips, esepcially with the labels facing opposite direction (easy to put one in backwards and fry it).  Get those babies read into your computer so you have a backup -- I imagine they'd be very hard to find.

Nice machine -- thanks for posting the pictures!

Actually it's pretty easy. The winning combinations map just has 5 reel information.  It's like a cherry that pays anywhere, there are winning combos that pay if reels 3 4 and 5 line up and 1 and 2 don't matter.

Too funny hitting that progressive jackpot on the Twin Thunder.  Nice hit on Jackpot Party, too.  Very nice looking Bluebird you have there!

Kirk,
I am  very impressed with your assortment of machines besides hitting a couple good hits while do the video .

 my game room looked like that for many years with machines
in every corner of the room -walls walls were decorated with original casino neon lighted boxes saying
for example :  5c area   - to $1.00 area etc etc . along with rope lights along the top of ceilings in several chase modes .
along with casino pictures fliers on certain walls clocks --name of my own casino in large metal plates that light up under black light

I had a darker atom asphere in my game room etc . somewhere i still have assorted pics of the old game room ..
I was SINGLE then except for my three dogs ..lol
so with having the the long term significant other relationship I have with her . which is 15 + yrs with same girl & ten years engaged  Hail Hail Hail Hail
no hurry to get married right ??  frying pan frying pan frying pan frying pan Scratch Head Scratch Head Scratch Head

I had a sitdown  Duh! Duh! Duh! with the love of my life approx -2 yrs ago .. her greatest complaint was my game room in the large family room I have !!

so i moved it to another level of my house that was not being used at all and set it up again .

now the question is from man to man  is >>>my guess <<is you have to be single ?? or you have a other half more understanding than mine lol
I do have 3 slants & the multicade with one bar top game left in my old family room .. just so Idont have withdrawls when the need to drop a coin
or play the multicade  rotflmao rotflmao rotflmao

now the kicker is I am still single & she got what she wanted ??  Scratch Head Scratch Head Scratch Head Scratch Head

My wife and I have an agreement. If I dont disappear on the harley(Picking up babes along the way) I can have machines in the house. Restricted to the first floor gameroom ONLY. No machines on second or third floor...

It's a deal! besides..she does play them along with the Wii...
