Identification Help
« on: September 15, 2020, 09:38:03 AM »
Looking for help identifying both of these games.


I believe one (RED) is a Games of Nevada machine, but not sure the model.
The other (BLUE) i believe is a Sigma but not sure and no idea what model.


Has anyone ever owned or worked on either?


Red, plugged in and flipped the switch..nothing happens.
Blue, turns on but screen stays black.

Also, in your opinion, is one more valuable than the other?  Priorities for working on one first?

When you get responses about the machines, please start separate threads for EACH one when you start to work on them.
Thank you.

Will do!


Thank you


I actually already received identification of the Joker's Wild as a SIGMA HR-IM I2211.  Restarted another thread for the same machine.

Green5,


 You are correct.  The first one is a Games of Nevada machine.  I believe it's an GVP-7?  It's been 25+ years since I played with one.  I have forgotten more then I remember.  They used to write the model number on the hopper with black sharpie.  You may check for that.


 The second is definitely a Sigma.


 I assume there are no serial tags on these games?  The GON would have had a tag on the lower right side of the cabinet (outside). The Sigma would have had one on the right side (outside) just below the reset locks by the fan exhaust.


 As for value, I really couldn't say.  Both of these company's have been out of business for some time.

Confirm, the red one is Games of Nevada. They are fairly rare, and represent an early/transitional "electronic" machine; actually best described as "electrio-mechanical." Most of them operate with in-house-built stepping switches, wherein an electrical contact arm "steps" around a circle of contacts on a light-brown circuit board to select a number or payout or.... If yours is of this type, know there are very few spare parts avialable, but know also it is extremely simple in design. Most relays are readily replaced with other brands, and the steppers themselves are not difficult to rebuild.  Quite rare, and few people know how to work on the, but if you are bright and hands-on, you can do it. I LOVE these things and have worked on them for others, but have never had the chance to own one myself.
Please post internal photos, I'd like to drool. And if you'll let it go gently...... :drool04:
(Yeah, I know this thread is more than a year old.......)

Thanks for your reply to the thread.  I purchased just the Joker's wild machine shortly after this original post.  Searching for parts and trouble shooting it since.  I am happy to let you know I got it to boot up and run successfully two days ago.  Will be posting a new thread on just that machine with some photos.  Managed to get an additional monitor for it!
