    Default Marvel Heroes and pachislo general help and opinions

    I'm looking to buy a Marvel Heroes pachislo machine. It looks nice but I have a lot of questions about it and pachislo in general.

    I read some roughly translated reviews here: Google Translate

    ...and even though the reviews looked nice...it seems the word "complex" was used in all of them. Is it hard to understand how this game works for a non Japanese speaking person like me? I like the idea of a deep game, but I want something that I can understand. Is the game pretty easy to understand after playing it awhile? Any on-line guides on how different pichislo machines work? Or does it all just boil down to, put in the credits and stop the reels?

    Some other general pachislo questions I have is about the number of tokens needed and payouts. If I am going to set my machine up with a type of redemption system...how many tokens should I buy for this machine so it doesn't run out of tokens while paying out? It says that jackpot payout is about 466 tokens here:

    Google Translate

    ...does that mean 1000 tokens would be plenty for 1 machine...or would I not even need that many...or posably more?

    I also don't understand how you can set the odds on a machine like this. If you set the game to be "easier" does that just make the reels go slower...or does it do something to make the reels "stick" on winning stops more often?

    I have been going nuts working on my home arcade the past month, I have always wanted a slot machine, but shyed away from the idea of a skill stop machine. Now that I look into them they seem a lot more affordable, fun, and flashy than a regular Vegas type slot.

    Any help or opinions are welcomed. Thanks

    Will as far as tokens go. 1000 in the machine & another 500 to 1000 to play. I average about 1500 to 2000 per machine.
    Odd are 1 to 6. 1 being the hardest. has nothing to do with reel speed. 1 will still pay out a big bonus be it will take longer to get there & less small jackpot. 6 will payout a lot of small jackpots & easier to get to big bonus round.

    I have been interested in seeing a video of Marvel Heroes but haven't found one yet on "You Tube" or anywhere else. If any members know of a sight I would appreciate it. Thanks

    Yeah, it is supposed to be one of the better selling machines now, but I have only found the promo video. Nothing with actual gameplay.

    That would be great. I still haven't made up my mind on if this is going to be my first pachislo machine or not.

    Any feedback on how hard the game is to understand (how the jackpots work, how bonuses are reached, how different cut scenes are achieved)?

    On a general pachislo note...I still don't understand how you can change the "skill level" on a machine. If YOU are hitting the buttons to stop the reels...what does the machine do to make you hit jackpots more often? I could wrap my head around this if the skill setting actually slowed the reels down...but since that isn't the case, I just don't get it.

    Another quick question...does skill really have anything to do with these games? Can you get good at them? Do you get a "feel" for a machine you play a lot? Or are the wheels going so fast that you stopping them is just the same as them stopping randomly (chance)?

    Its probably just best to think of pachislos as slot machine(but more fun )...the computer decides when you are going to win, just like any slot!!

    There are times when stopping the correct reels in certain order (the machine will indicate which ones) will make you win more..and there are times when you do have to stop the reels in specific spots , say on 7's to get into a bonus or something, and you have control, and during these times the reels will stop right when a button is pushed instead of slipping like in normal play..

    but mostly, the machine (random number generator) decides when you win..

    So skill 1 is just tighter and skill 6 is just looser!!

    They aren't hard to play at all...and aren't hard to understand once you've played for a while!!

    This is just basic info, all machines are different and very in their interactivity...I hope some of this info helps..

    Another quick question to any owners of Marvel Heroes is it a 3 coin max bet game?

    If so...is that the way the game was originally designed to be played or it that a modification that is made to the machines after they are pulled from the casinos?
