You seek Daverob, much powerful in the way of the dongle is he...

[Eddie]

Daverob PERIOD Your search ends there.

Umm I thought the dongle allowed you to shoot the ball.

Doesn't electricity/transformer make the LCD work?

Maybe you should check all of your connections, unplug and replug them all just to make sure.

Just a thought.

we all assumed he was taking about the 2 buttons and display on the front??

[Lddrizzt]

Well if that is the case, then I stand corrected. And Daverob's dongle is the way to go.

Thanks everyone I will buy one of them dongle things when I get home

One more stupid question (sorry) is there a setting for making the game a bit harder ? The reason I ask is that I can empty it in about 5 minutes eveytime I play it...kinda gets boring after a while...

p.s the machine is a Woody Woodpecker...

Thanks

How many balls are you playing with?

[gadget]

I think I have 1000 (can't remember how many I got with the machine), it fills the hopper almost right up if I tip the lot in...

I thought the idea in Japan was to win balls... so I would have thought they would be a little less easy to play and not go into "Fever" mode so quick and easy...

I thought Fever mode would be like hitting a jackpot on a fruit machine and once it's paid out one you don't get another one for a while or until the machine has taken more than it's paid out (steel balls in the case of pachinkos) or am I completly wrong...

I can use between 50 and 100 balls to get it into fever mode, it empites itself I then tip the lot back into it and 50 - 100 odd balls later it's off again on a huge payout streak ??

there are hot spells and dry spell, you just happen to be in a hot one.

the odds will average out and things will slow down after awhile.

enjoy the wins while you can

[Lddrizzt]

You can always adjust the nails so it's harder to hit the pockets.

Ok thanks for the replies I will keep playing it until it calms down a bit

Where do you get a daverob dongle?

Where do you get a daverob dongle?

Best place to buy it from is through the PachiTalk auction site. It's the cheapest place to buy them from, and it helps support this site.

My PachiTalk auction listings can be found here.

They should always be available via the auctions, but if you want to spend an extra $10, you can buy them direct from my website.

[Johnny9ball]

For sure I will be buying one through here very soon. As soon as I decide on the machine I want. Best to support our site! Thanks for an awesome dongle card combo! should go awesome with my new modern Pachinko when I finally decide on the model.

By the way here is some awesome vids on Daves Dongle and smart cards and how to install them and how they work.

Thanks for your positive feedback on my videos.

as i recall in a purely academic work it's perfectly fine to plagiarize as long as one GIVES CREDIT IN YOUR BIBLIOGRAPHY. I'm sure the latter half of his work will credit you properly.

[Johnny9ball]

All credit goes to the maker of those videos not me I didnt make them.
