It depends on the slot machine, on some you can stop the individual reels, on some you can stop them all at the same time, and on others you cannot stop them at all.
There are very few slots that you can stop the reels on, the ones that can be stopped are no better than the ones you can't stop. For those slot machines that have this feature, stopping the reels "manually" just ends the game sooner. The results would be identical if you just let them stop on their own. The point of this feature is to give the player the perception that they have some control over their game. That's all it is.
The skill stop function is a feature every slot machine manufacturer builds into available features. It was developed in the early 1920's and first installed by the Mills Novelty Company of Chicago,Illinois.
Once a person has pulled the lever or pushed a button the gears and levers start to work. The central shaft is what supports the reels. Once the reels are in motion a braking systems is in place to bring the reels to a stop, senors communicates the position of the reels and activates a payout if required and allows play to continue.
That depends on how many combinations the manufacturer programs in to the machine software. Modern "Stepper" machines use a stepping motor and plastic flags on the inside frame of the reel which are read by an optic. This allows the machine to stop the reel on whichever symbol the software says it should stop on allowing the software to use what are called "logical reels". The software can be programmed with an infinite number of possible symbols for each reel. The average 3-reel "stepper" game has 22 physical symbols per reel including blank spaces. 22 X 22 X 22 = 10,648 possible combinations minimum. There are some machines with combinations in the tens of billions. Corrected Answer: If by "one arm bandit", you mean antique, mechanical slot machine, most have 20 symbols per reel, so one BAR symbol per reel should be 8,000 to 1 odds. Many have more than one BAR symbol on at least one of the reels though, so this makes the odds a little more in the player's favor. Modern machines do not use optic readers, they use a computer called a RNG, a random number generator, this tells the motors that turn the reels where to stop. The machine's odds are programmed in to a chip that can only be changed by a select few casino employees, and in most states this is legally done only in the presence of state gaming officials. Slot machines in other countries, and on cruise ships, etc, may be operated in a far different manner, possibly hooked into a master control computer of some kind, where the odds may be changed remotely.
The best anybody can do with video games on optical (disk) media is clean and refinish the bottom (reading) side of the disk. There are machines for this, but these aren't "fixing" anything. Gamestop also has too large of a product volume and flow to individually address every disk, so I doubt they even have these in their official line up.Game Stop has no machine that "Fixes" a video game, so for all sakes and purposes, no they ahve no video game repair machine.
