AUTOMATIC

Post by taellik »

This machine was chosen based on the graphics for the top and belly being changed to have a Star Trek appearance to them. Apart from that - it is an Automatic model. This machine would be what I'd call a 1st generation type since it is a basic 3-reel model - no 4th reel, no LED display, no video, etc. This is as it was in the beginning..lol. It has solid gameplay, the reel graphic symbols seem large compared to more modern machines which have to make space for the previously mentioned LED, video, etc. so for those family members with diminishing eyesight, the symbols are easier to make out. The machine plays as a three coin/credit type only. The spin knob is not lit up, however, the stop buttons are and change color from red to blue as they are pressed to stop the reels. The machine is a very loud one and volume control would be recommended add-on mod to make for it. It has good, challenging gameplay and is a nice bare-bones type machine to contrast the more modern made ones available.

Appearance : 7 ( was modded graphics for Star Trek - reels graphics are originals )
Gameplay : 7
Sound/Music : 9

I've had my Bellco Automatic pachislo game for about a year. It is the only machine I've ever owned so I can't really compare it with others.

The machine is fun to play, and although it's really loud even set to minimum levels... the sounds themselves are pleasant and I personally enjoy the music during bonus.

There is a lot of variety in the game which is explained in the video manual I've compiled and linked below.

This is a basic machine, very often it is chosen for 'customization" by changing out the belly graphics. It has a special reach feature, the digislo, it is an LED on the right side that if 3 Automatic symbols are hit 3 consecutive times it will give a bonus round, a replay will keep the reach round going but any loss will reset the led and the reach ends.
it has a very upbeat big bonus music, almost techno. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiFEBG1Mfrk
