Question about reels on enterrise machine

[arcen]

Hey everyone -- new to having a Pachislo (Pachislot Gyakuten Saiban -- which was made by Enterrise) and have a question -- are the reels in some machines 'weighted' to land on certain spots more than others? My center reel lands on the same symbol in the center nearly 80% of the time despite that symbol only being 4 of 20 slots on that reel. In quick testing this evening, it landed on that symbol on 25 of 30 spins, which feels out of sorts. (My left and right reels are a bit similar, where the same symbol appears in the lower slot an unlikely number of times based on the number of spots it exists on the reel, but not as often as the center)

It feels like there's on some spins a slight delay on the skill stop that leads it to stop on that symbol, where on other spins it stops immediately...on that same symbol.

I wasn't sure if this was connected to the odds of the machine, if this was just normal on these kind of machines or if there was something I should be looking at on the reels. Thanks for the help!

WELCOME!!!

Even tough pachislos are often called skill stops, they are really like regular slot machines in that if its not your time to win, the reels will stop where they were programed to and not right when you push a button!!

Unlike regular slots though, there are times, depending on the machine, when you may need to stop on specific symbols to go into a bonus and the machine will then let you.. and times you may need to push the buttons in the right order to win or maximize winning!!

Basically the while concept of skill stop is a myth during normal play. The reels will slip or delay to either get a win or not. What ever the machine has decided.
