    Default What makes Spin Luck so special ?

    Hi folks

    I have only just joined the forums so I am on a very steep learning curve and have been checking out 100's of recent posts and have seen a lot of you mention the Spin Luck machine which looks like its the holy grail of Pachislo

    So what makes this machine stand out from the rest ? why so good ? I'm very curious and you will have to remember I have only seen one Pachislo machine before and only spent 5 mins with that so I have nothing to compare it with but having looked at various pics of the machine it looks very standard ie does not seem to have all the bells and whistles of say a sinbad machine

    It would be great to hear your thoughts & views

    Welcome aboard aiboman. I too had the same question a while ago:

    http://www.pachitalk.com/forums/show...ight=spin+luck

    I've since bought one and can tell you that it is very good. I can't say why exactly, it just all seems right when you play it. The Spin Luck feature makes me go back for more - basically you can hit anything from 20 to the elusive 7777. Even then, you need to hit the right combination to bank the wins. If you do a search you should be able to find out a bit more about it, plus see some videos. If you are thinking of buying one, you'd better hurry, there aren't that many left (I know only of two available - one in the classifieds at 350 and one on Ebay for 500). It's doubtful they'll be anymore coming into the country now as well. The Sinbads and other more 'technical' machines are good, but I don't know whether they'd have the staying power. A lot of the guys have a large collection so they never get bored.

    Ive put mine on e-bay for 300 starting price or 350 for straight out sale.....

    If you're interested then have a look .... I'm only in Stoke so could deliver to you in person

    NOTE: and I wouldn't be selling mine other than its to fund a bad Pachinko habit !

    I'm also selling a Hanabi Hyakkei ( essentially same style as Sinbad for a very reasonable price if you're on a budget )

    Azlew: thats pounds not dollars.

    truth is its best to STAY AWAY from the SL no matter what anyone says thats a lot of money just to have the funnest machine I've ever played(after all ,you could have 10-15 MILLION GODs for that kind of money)

    Well, I have probably played the Spin Luck more than anyone who does NOT own one, and I can say that it's the most addictive pachislo I've ever played!!! The "future game" feature is what makes it so fun!! Trying to bank as many points as you can, and watching as the wheel goes past 7777 only to land on the 20 right next to it, keeps me coming back to try and get the quad 7's!!!!

    And Willie, who had never played a Pachislot before, had 23 different machines to choose from!

    NOTE: He hardly played the King Camel.
    Check my member page here or...

    Temporarily, go to youtube.com and search for BudgeRahe for videos. Until I get the links set up in the museum

    Like Tony says, I hardly played the KC, but I did give it a shot, along with several others, but none held the appeal of the Spin Luck. When I go to visit him now, it's hard to get me away from that machine to try others.

    Did somone mention Million God? I lost out on one on ebay it was going for $40 I was winning at $41 untill the last hour It was mine !then some non Pachislo knowledgable guy came in and started a bid with $75 ugh I want one for as cheap as humanly possible. Million God starting at $75!!!!!!! Da bum
    it was mine I tell you, mine at $41 There should be a law! May his reels short circuit, may his stop board go haywire (Like my Banker Nine) May his LEDs burn out (Like my SinBad Adventure) may he never hit a big or the top JackPot (Like 7777 on my Spin Luck) Million God, Dragon Dice whereforth are thou?????????????????

    Fantastic! Welcome to the club. A wise choice methinks. If only because you'd probably struggle to buy one in the UK in a year should you want to. It is a very nice machine, can't wait to hear your thoughts.

    A donation of around $50 dollars to the Pachi Church should be about right.
