What a great BFM clubber that machine was.

Ah no worries at all mate, thanks very much for going to all that trouble regardless, much appreciated Ploggy.

Yay!!! Awesome news mate!

Crikey, yes, that's it Ploggy! Wow. It was a nasty piece of work in my experience, seemed to take take take (teasing for the 2 x Joker cashpot), and both the cash and nudge gambles were brutal. (The nudge gamble was one up or down, but it would let you carry on, so you could eventually lose your entire nudges, which I think accumulated as a nudgepot?) I must've been 18 when I last played one of these in the wild The clubber was a much better machine (IMO) but even more brutal. BFMs of this era didn't muck about. EDIT: Shame it doesn't work though (I wonder if the ROMs would work in the BFMulator? Long shot I guess lol)

Yeah, Jokers Wild was another one - and its grown up clubber variant which was Queen of Clubs. I remember the latter well; it had various "player advantage" pre-spin bonuses like "double next win" (up to JP), and like all great clubbers, it had a proper shit-or-bust gamble all the way to the JP, from any reel win. £50 double/nothing in 1985, anyone...? (Ouch... I was earning £35/week in 1985!)

Awesome flyer, cheers Ploggy! I guess it's possible one of these could turn up one day... It was a very entertaining machine for its day, and like you say, the Big Money feature was a massive big deal which could repeat on and on and pay out massively (and a great rarity, which added to its appeal, a bit like 5-5-5 on Razzle Dazzle/Strike-A-Light etc.)

Hi all, not sure if this is the right thread etc., but does anyone happen to know if an old BFM AWP called Superpots (or its later update Hyperpots) from circa 1985 or 1986-ish have ever been emulated please? System 85 I think (possibly System 83). They had a "sudden impact", randomly given BIG MONEY feature which either gave £3JP or £1 cash out of nowhere, which could then repeat quite a few times. The usual feature involved a number trail and various nudge pots etc., it's been a very long time though lol. These were good, hard-edged AWPs to play, especially in their original £3JP guise. Any info appreciated.

Stake Up is actually a very early MPU4 game I believe (not MPU3). But anyway, yes, early Barcrest clubbers would not permit gambling past £10 on 10p play or £5 on 5p play (unlike similar vintage BFMs or JPMs). IIRC there is a dipswitch setting on MPU3 roulette wheel gamble games which doubles the gamble limit (£20 on 10p and £10 on 5p).

Pfft. “Thank you” costs nothing mate. Bloody entitled snowflakes these days, can’t stand ‘em.

Meh. I reckon that flat battery was left like that "by accident" lol. Perpetually RAM resetting machine always in start up suck mode, day in and day out (complete with "80% payout or greater" sticker?) Sounds like a very easy way to site a de facto very low % machine to me. Surely not.

Awesome thanks Andy, that worked a treat! Gotta love those Roy Walker samples... "Riiiiiiiiight!!"

Hmm, this layout appears to be mute for me. Am I doing something wrong?

Awesome, cheers guys Sorry for the late reply, well laid up with man flu. Is there anyone who hasn't got this fecking cough?

Ah, sorry @SocialDragon368 I didn’t even realise we had a legacy section…: … silly old fool that I am, I mean I’ve only been around 20 years Many thanks

Hi guys, does anyone know if BFM’s Gameshow AWP and/or 4-reel clubber of the early to mid 90s has ever been released for MFME please? (I seem to recall the clubber was done way back for the BFMulator)
