SWP in a fruit cabinet

saw an odd thing: 50p/£20 or £1/£50 skill DOND in a fruit machine cab.
it gives 16 (or maybe 25) numbers bwn 01 and 50, flashes up your option and you have a certain amount of time to accept it or refuse it depending on whether the number which comes on the dot matrix is in your menu. you have a set target to get to and you only score points for matches (none for correct binning).

it is rubbish (think skill ball bingo without swiss tony) but if the YTS kid has bothered to make it, and it was in the pub where an AWP was previously, maybe the latest crap from the DOND stable is up for general release, the fruity boys will not be amused.

the gameplay is obviously limited by having no video display and only two pressable buttons.

A supplier is a offering a guarenteed buy back on these at the end of the season ,reckon they have had a hard time shifting these ,hence the offer.
not heard anything positive about this machine.

That one appeared then disappeared soon afterwards in O'Neills in Wycombe recently, but it didn't replace the two AWPs and one SWP (an uninspired Ind:e). However given the huge proliferation of DOND games of both types it seems that Noel's reach knows no bounds...
