Title: Early vs later Splus?
Post by: jonbbrew on March 31, 2023, 11:25:49 PM

Hello all,

I have both early and late Splus’s. Besides a few layout differences, is there any pro/con to each that differ for future purchase considerations?

I don't know what you mean by "cuter purchase considerations", but early S+ machines did not have bill validators. They're strictly coin-in, coin-out unless you add a bulky and now nearly impossible to find "sidecar" bill validator box to attach to the side of the cabinet.

Later S+ machines have embedded bill validators which makes it significantly easier to add credits.

Ah but, the IGT S series and later non validated S+ series were perhaps the most reliable slot ever built.
