Was playing a bank job earlier....when i just scanned my eyes across the glass. Apparently on the bank job game you can get your offer or game amount offered with a REAPEAT CHANCE. Not a repeat chance like other machines, but a reapeat chance. Does this mean that Chris Rea pops up and starts singing out road to hell should your game reapeat??
Any other machines with things spelt wrong??

I saw that on bankjob but had assumed it was deliberate. As in reap the rewards or something. Either a poor attempt at a pun or very bad spelling.

Cluedo says hot pot on the screen when you collect the third feature, not a typo, but wrong machine. Bank job says Poker Face on it somewhere i seem to remember too.

If Bankjob is on a quid stake in attract and you whack a quid in it also says $1 4x NUMBERS, when the enchancement is actually 2x numbers and the winners bonus
OK it doesn't have a dollar sign, but I'm on an American keyboard and can't find the pound sign.

There've been loads of typos on machines in days gone by.
You could spot the unchipped/chipped Snakez'n'Ladderz by getting 'UPDRADE' or 'UPGRADE' from the bonus;
Paycheque had the word Calendar spelt CALENDER on the alpha;
I could go on but I've just realised how sad I've become remembering all this...

Jewels goes on about how you can get all the treasue in attract mode, I get the impression whoever came up with this and bank job done so in their lunch hour. I noticed the reapeat thing also and, for some reason, also thought of Chris Rea

all very strange.

The original version of spotted dick had drunk and disorderly spelt as drunk and disordely.

I came in to post about Spotted Dick, but McStreak beat me to it.
For anyone that remembers Coppa Cash, a 2p rebuild of Barcrest's Action Bank, I think done by some tuppenny-ha'penny third-party company back in the late 80's, you may remember that the cancel button legend said CANCELL, and the collect button said COLLET.
Also, on Fruit Machine Simulator by Codemasters on the Commodore 64, there was a SKILL CLIME and a NUGE POT.

Bacerest, i wonder if that geezer still thinks its called this?
I have a mate who will always bell me whenever he's in a boozer to tell me what the machine is, ''its one of them Bar-quest ones'' i've never corrected him in all these years
