congrats on the fix, I think it's a cool game. Cromptons is the most iconic coinpusher company, going back to the early 60s. The coin launch gameplay makes this more exciting than most pushers for me
are they easy to change to a non ticket machine find them pointless if u cannot win a prize from them? also them flippers are so over priced had 1 and needed 4 of them would of cost to much to change
@@playuk-tiktok They are basically impossible to swap over. Different software. Plus the token version actually had a token dispenser as well as the token counter, so to my knowledge you didn't actually win the same tokens you knocked over. This was done so they could do the jackpot, but makes it impossible to use for prizes. I might however, have plans to modify it to unofficially give the tokens you win back, instead of tickets.
@@BlocksRetroRepairsWould be awesome if you were able to convert it and get the software. The UK token (coin) version didn’t have a token dispenser so any tokens/prizes fell directly into the payout chute. The hopper would just be used to payout a coin value if you got a coin into the goal holes instead of tickets. Might be a bit tricky if a specific board was needed to control the coin hopper paying out coins via the goal feature rather than tickets unless they both use the same board. Other differences on the UK version are obviously you’d need a payout tray and to install some sides on the bed for the house takings so it’s not 100% payout. There’s a video of the UK version on YT if you search Cromptons Soccer Shot by Mcpizzaface. Gives you an idea of what the payout tray looks like and where the house takers would go. The hopper did actually double up as a change machine although I believe only a few had the change machine feature added. I presume it was an optional added extra. Cromptons were a brilliant company, so advanced for the time and made extremely solid machines built to last. So many still going strong today in the UK. Sadly was their downfall, built so well you wouldn’t need to buy again hence they sadly went out of business around 5 or so years ago. Interesting fact - Cromptons invented the coin pusher back in 1964

A hundred bucks ... that game was likely well north of $10k brand new!
