The arms of the UFO machines in Japan is different from the one in the US...
the one in Japan requires more skill... speaking of that... i was so proud of myself winning a Stitch from Japan UFO machine...

I don't think the machines are that dumb wor....it has to use some sort of random number generator and then add in the probability/difficulty....not as straight forward as 10 losses 1 win, etc...

it has to use some sort of random number generator and then add in the probability/difficulty....not as straight forward as 10 losses 1 win, etc... <-- this is what they have inside the ones in Xspot. at first the generator was disabled, but later i found out the gripper is running a bit weird. The output power varies from time to time, also the gripper is now a little bit lose (it rotates in an angle)  when dropping down.

Well you can also tell the earning rate of those machines by the time it needs to deplete the plushes.
