Oh my - this looks like it took ages! Thank you S -
Thank you - not seen this one before. It looks quite interesting. S -
Thanks for this - it looks great and I'm looking forward to playing it. Some of those 2p machines were really quite fun. S -
Interesting - thanks for this S -

Looks great - thank you. I remember going to a stodgy amusement arcade in Aylesbury in the 80's and playing this and various arcade games when I should probably have been in school. Darned if I can remember the name of the place it was the something cafe. S -
Thank you. I've not seen this one before - it should be interesting. S -
This looks like a lot of fun - thank you. S -
Seems like a reasonable explanation - thanks -
Love it - I remember these in the seaside arcades as a nipper. Mind you I spent most of my money playing things like Lunar Lander and Space Invaders instead. I wonder what the codes (e.g. M74) at the side of the monopoly board mean though. S

They look fab - thank you S -
Magic - thank you S -
This looks fun - thank you for your hard work putting it together. S -
Wowzers - thank you for another great looking DX. The tune it plays when gambling nudges etc has become an ear worm. I know I've heard somewhere else and I can't recall where. S -
Thanks for this. I remember playing it (badly) in the amusement arcade on Tottenham Court Road - apparently there was a way to milk it but I never figured it out. -
Yes - the original Spectrum came with that Horizons tape, a couple of books, some leads (to connect to your TV and a tape deck) and a power supply. A bit later on Sinclair bundled more software with it including Chequered flag (motor racing), Chess, Scrabble, Make-a-chip [design logic circuits], VU-3D [a rubbish 3D designer] and Tasword 2 [a word processor]. I think they were trying to make the spectrum look like a more rounded computer than just something for the kids to play games on. Of course, lots of stores will have done there own deals to shift units. Particularly after the launch debacle which saw WHSmiths getting hundreds of machines returned to them because they didn't work properly and the Sinclair name was mud for a while. Oh, there is still a thriving Speccy community out there. S Who remembers typing in Krazy Katapilla as one of his first experiences of Fruit Machine Simulation

Thank you once again for all the hard work that goes into these. On the £8 machine, the ring the bell has a £10 jackpot decal - is that correct (I've not won it yet)? S -

Hi Ginge, Thanks for your hard work putting this one together. S -
Really enjoyed this one. A post about the Hi-Flyer layout reminded me that I'd created a crib sheet for the special features for Hi-De-Hi. There are a couple of gaps but it might be useful S HiDeHi.pdf -
Not sure how useful it will be but I did put one together for HiDeHi (attached - apologies for the rough and ready style). A couple of gaps still to be filled in relation to game play. From what I recall the various hidden treasures are the same though. S HiDeHi.pdf -
@TonyC1971 - Me too. I particularly like the Twilight Zone one. I've not come across this one before though - really looking for to playing it. @Clo06 - Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into creating these. S

Hi Woodsy, These look fantastic - thank you. S -
Thank you for your hard work putting that together. BTW - did I hear a rather odd rendition of Enola Gay when hitting the jackpot? S -
Magnificent - thank you S -
OMG - these are some of my favourite machines. In fact I think I mentioned them when writing my original "new member's" post. Thank you I'm off to drool in private now. See you in a fortnight. S -
Another memory happily rekindled - thank you. S
