Video Eclipse - Updating content!

So, there were update discs made for the Video Eclipse, official discs from Bell Fruit that you could put in your dvd drive inside the machines pc and it would auto update to the new games. This is great for a home use machine. You can also use old update discs to update your current hard drive to the older content, so a downgrade... upgrade! So. Very simple. Open the bottom door and also the cash box door.
Now get your discs and see which one you want to use. The older the date, the more likely older content. April 2017i is the latest and last disc made. At this time, I have no clue on what was the first.
Now just press the open button on the dvd drive and put the update disk in and close it.
If it does not go to plan it will just auto eject the disc and you can try again. If it does go to plan, and it really should you will see this....
Followed by this......
Once it finished it will just auto eject the disk and from here you can take the disk out, close the dvd drive, just push it closed. Now turn the refill key and see what new or old games you now have!
Remember, you can only have upto 10 on your menu at once, the top 10 games in you game list will be the ones that will show on the menu. You can change the order about to however you want, just select a game you don't want and press move to bottom. There is good chances some of the games will not be enabled, just select that game and press enable. Once you have your 10 games, turn the refill key back off, close and lock both the cashbox and bottom door and....
These Bell Fruit Video Eclipse machines are pretty hard to come by, so if you have one of these, get in touch! I do have a few update discs, 2015-2017 so anything older I would be very interested in!
