- ipdb.notes
- 'Euro Star' is a conversion of an unknown bingo machine made by WIMI whose logo can be seen on the coin door. The new game name is not shown on the backglass but appears on the coin box lid, admittedly a portable component that could be moved from game to game.
Collins Entertainment, Inc. imported bingo games and added a flipper to the playfield to classify the game for a much reduced licensing fee than it would have as a flipperless game. They also added a printer to print tickets showing credits won, to be redeemable for merchandise. To ensure the flipper was noticed, the conversion games done by this company can be expected to have a large white sticker at the top front of the backbox having the words 'SKILL FLIPPER' on it.
Circa 1990's.
The name 'Skillpins' appears on this game as one word and also as two words. More information about Collins Skillpins can be seen here.
