[NOWstopslaughter]

Whatching this kinda made me want to get one of those lol

[tubofbologna]

wow you paid a quarter for something worth 5 cents... its like you just purchased it... but if you saw it on a store shelf you wouldnt even want it

[Nightenstaff]

@tubofbologna Not to worry, I went back later and got my quarter back. I did feel a little bad though, so I returned the ball as well.

[pokemon1234ify]

i cant find it on ebay!!!!!!! :(



[Wasakracker79]

@pokemon1234ify

maybe...because the person in this video already bought the machine.

[Mr3DPerson]

see, when the prize was going to the drop container it was shaking like crazy!!!

[hypersonic500]

where do you buy the lucky crane i want one sooooo bad

[mastafrank]

You're good. When I have kidney stones, I want you to be the one who controls the little robot that removes them.

[bananaman22]

@mastafrank u can remove kidney stones noninvasively with ultrasound

[lati1040]

shaky shaky

[Eurt76]

One of these is down at my local arcade

[BuIetForMyValentine]

The way you dropped the coin was amazing.

._.

[kayu38]

that machine is cheap... shakes like a bitch

[webgurl2245]

[patm718]

so funny! it's like it knew what it was doing!

[pudkip19]

i want a lucky crane sooooo bad. they look like fun

[mynamesfake2]

...  :/

[xlechasseurx]

@Nightenstaff ok ok...can u explain me why u put money for a ball?? who want a ball???

[Nightenstaff]

@xlechasseurx Well, the ball and the quarter both came back to me in the end, sooo...

[ashleighBeeBee123]

i still dont understand what ur saying, hehe

[koongienoob]

@xlechasseurx cause they get a ball plus the machines his god its if they wanna plus its only a quarter and some parents would give thier child the ball idiot

[Zeph1ne]

Its hard . Cause the claw keep on shaking and theres a chance it will drop . and ball is on top on the claw so its not gripping at all .

[kid01k]

Ball cranes are hard to win most of the times I play them

[shyguyisshy]

Oh, I remember this kind of machine back when I'm little. It's easy to win. I love these machines.

[TheBloodShotz]

Tape? you won tape?

[mrbakuganmaster101]

i will buy it for alot of money

[HowlingDoomBlazer]

wow! That`s so cool!

[anime08mish]

:) Just wondering where you bought the crane machine and around how much it cost?

[Nightenstaff]

I purchased this from eBay a couple years ago for $50 (my most amazing find, I assure you). Drove 120 miles or so each way to pick it up from a guy that bought it at an auction.

Worked pretty flawlessly once I got it home and still does to this day. I've had it to family reunions, parties, and stocked for home play. Only repair I've ever made to it was the claw cord slipped off the pulley once. This thing is built to play forever it seems!

[anime08mish]

wow! lucky! Thanks for the info~

[silentmagic97]

Most people say that claw machines aren't lucky and it's just set to win every 5 times or so... but in that case, you're lucky to be the 5th or so person to play!

[togarda]

it's not luck... Or at least that's what I've heard. Apparently every machine only works every tentht time or something along those lines (It may be something else than 10, varies with the machine) And to win, you just stand there with a noteblock and write down who wins and who doesn't... and when it's time for the "winning game" you just walk right up and play it!

[Nightenstaff]

This machine is not equipped with a 'grip box' (it's from the '70s). Also, there are ways to beat those boxes. Aim for tag loops, snag loose material, and grabbing corners of objects removes the "grip" element of the claw and then relies on the precision of the player. It's obviously difficult (outside of my typical skill level), but possible.

[supermike615]

Some do, but you can still get lucky. Ive gotten 4 things in a row (my record). And the machines are fool proof

[bluemoney11]

did anyone else notice how shaky it was on the way back there trying to make it drop!! what fuckers

[theFOOLNIGHTWOLF]

@bluemoney11 i know right i tryed one before and sister did to she got mad and got in the hole where get prize ... then she won everything

[MyDeadRomance777]

im like a master at it i won 4 2 days ago at Go Bananas once i won 2 at Daytona and Like a million at this restaurant and they were all animals!

[boxainbrads12]

tis not luck tis skill

[karideka7]

yattane!

[Nightenstaff]

Yes I did =)

[AllenKevorkov]

I'd love to know if there are any spare parts available for these things. I have 2 of them. One is working and the other is for spare parts, but I wouldn't mind getting my hands on more spares so I can keep it running forever. Check out my Lucky Crane secrets video ;)

[jolopop123]

sell me it

[Nightenstaff]

Sorry, not for sale. And if I was to sell it, it would be at a huge price increase =)

[jolopop123]

i dont need it anyway now i bought my own

[Sloppybelly811]

YOU ROCK

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lcfchumelcfc]

i want1 ! where u get urs! / ? ? ?

[Nightenstaff]

Bought it off eBay for $50 (heck of a deal!). Had to drive about 200 miles to pick it up, but it was well worth it. Fully working when I got it home -- just had to clean it a bit and it was ready to play!

[gunterstudios]

50 bucs! i would buy one for like a grand to play one of those every day xD

[cutedogface7585]

haha mee too

[ThePokemonDirector]

I wish I had a crane in my house.:]

[pureebearwilliam]

is this ur house its so quiet i mean oO

[Nightenstaff]

Yep, this is my place. In fact, when this was shot, the crane machine was in my dining room =)

[pureebearwilliam]

than yd u like yell at that skateboy4354 guy?

[Skateboy4354]

this is fake you have this in your house. Stop trying to say u work at the zoo

[Nightenstaff]

Sarcasm ladies and gentlemen, lost on the ignorant.

[GrimsMinion]

lmao i like how it slams the ball into the side about 3 times before it drops

[xItachikun]

WOOT!!!!!

[xlemuelx]

u are so lucky

[WumWip]

Cool! I never win outta those. That claw swung around enough to drop the prize. You were lucky to win that.

[imaputu2bed25]

that was so lucky but you won so you rock!

[SkatingBBoy]

Thats it?

[Nightenstaff]

Yeah, I had to turn off all the fireworks and pyro due to building codes and the singing kick line had the night off. If you listen really close, you can hear the elephants in the background, but I couldn't fit them in the shot.

[GrimsMinion]

hahahahhahahahahaha xD

[wrestlingaz]

That's a ripoff!

[Jryu23]

dude! that machine is hella easy! omg

[Nightenstaff]

Easy? Well, easy enough to pick the prizes up, but quite difficult to actually get the claw to drop them into the prize chute. If you notice when the claw is coming back, it is violently flinging back and forth (by design). Most often, your prize is thrown back into the machine instead of dropped into the prize shoot.

[xclawxmaplestory]

where do u get the little ones????

[mellowyellow06]

amazon or e-bay

[Nightenstaff]

Oddly enough, these were plush that I received with another game that fit the claw quite nicely. The size of the plush is between baseball and softball size.

[mellowyellow06]

oh ok thanx!

[jolopop123]

ebay she said she bought it on ebay

[Nightenstaff]

Yes, this my machine. I bought it earlier this year to restore and found that very little needed to be done with it.

As for the lack of commentary -- not sure what you would have liked me to say. It's a fairly unique cocktail claw machine from Japan, I believe. It was purchased from a fellow in North Carolina who had bought it at auction (and knew nothing about it).

[mellowyellow06]

oh thats pretty cool, i want one!

[clawmaster30]

cool.where did you get it?

[clawmaster30]

talk much?

[mellowyellow06]

wait is the machine yours?

[mellowyellow06]

cool
