Apparently the original reel was too small as the tickets ran out too quick and so the op put in a bigger one. Everything was hidden behind the door and the slot where the tickets came out had removable TICKETS decals if you wanted it for home use.
1 slot coins... 1 slot tickets.
The game wouldnt be as deep as a modern pin either and seeing as all Stern boards are in the header im still struggling to see how they came up with the placement for this.
I mean good on them for doing it but FFS... who the hell  thought it was well executed??

BTW... boards in my TEN STRIKE are in the bottom of the cabinet and with the shallower profile there was still room for coin slot, ticket redemption mechs etc

it is good for pinball in modern arcades, and at least kids will have better fun with a pinball spewing tickets than they would from a basket ball game spuin tickets. its also good its optional and means a machine can be upgraded with a kit, i think that is how it should be, makes sense. but a bit more thought could have been put into it.
I honestly dont know why this hasn't been done before, but to me that system they have just looked at a catalog at a external ticket machine and then thought that will do.

it looks like a rushed idea and plucked out of the air and they have just started selling the first idea that came into their head.
the fact its a photoshop i have feeling it hasn't even been made yet.
when was this released??

it certainly leaves room for some one to design and sell a better redemption setup, the stupid part is this system has almost created a NEED for a better positioned ticket system.
