Well today I was in this arcade room ( Pretty Fun ) and I was playing this game where u build up blocks starting out with 3 blocks and the object of the game is to stack the blocks straight up in a row…There are 2 types of prizes, Minor Prize ( which usually has cheap stuff like candy or stickers ) & A Major Prize( which has all the good stuff like Nintendo DS or A now GameBoy Advance SP)…. While I was playing I got so close to winning, but I missed the last block like probably 5 in a row and now I’m starting to think that the game is programmed to scam people to let them think they’re winning, but in the end they wasted a whole dollar like me ( I actually wasted 5 good dollars ).. Any Info on whats happening????

Nope, these are crackable games but VERY hard. I have won 2 Ipod out of the same game you have described (of course it took me about 20 dollars). There are actually specialists at these (much like claw games). They can be rigged to cheat you but the best way to check that is to go in right before they close and count the prizes hanging in the case, then go back shortly after they open and count them again. If it’s the same number the game is most likely on the level. If they’re cheating they will usually remove a couple prizes a few times a week or more so it looks like someone has been winning. I know this seems like a lot of trouble but if you want a cheap Gameboy it’s doable. Good luck.
