« on: August 26, 2021, 04:00:44 PM »
Hey team,

Just wanted to know everyones opinion to what the most reliable / trouble free machine  / easy to get parts for ?
I know they all have their issues but just in general a good machine that is fairly maintenance free overall ?

IGT S+ is my opinion.

Cheap Parts, replace the battery every 15years or so.
Not a lot to go wrong with the machine.
Lots of game kits around, glass is the same size as the S2000, so lots of glass kits/strips around so you can change up the themes.
The 27c256 chips are still widely available if your into burning your own eproms - for backup purposes of course.
On the downside - bill validators are not getting any updates for the new bills. If that is a factor then a S2000 would probably be the next best thing.

The S2000 is a bit more complicated machine, and burning sims requires a fair bit more expertise and hardware.  it can run all the S+ software. 
With an S2000 - You can use TITO and a printer instead of a coin hopper. Printer paper needs refreshing and as its heat imaging any paper you have will eventually turn black by itself so you will have future supply challenges.

If you can't afford to lose you can't afford to win.

The S+ is about as reliable as they get in my opinion.

My 2 S+'s have been under my care for 16 years, only changed batteries once and trouble free operation since I've had them.
