You can take a man out of Southend, but you can’t take the Southend out of a man.

[@nathams42]

if you take the south end of a man out of him, he would probably die...

[@notaword1136]

You can also put a man in a man's Southend, but then the baptists will get mad atcha

[@Highraven]

​@@nathams42hehe😂

[@WhatIMakeIsRandom]

hahaha i can't believe someone else thought this

[@NerdCubed]

Not for a lack of trying

[@lukebrown5017]

10:10 I once won a crisp €5 note on one of those 20p machines… best €40 ever spent

[@Kranitoko]

"Where did my $50 go?" "In the hole." **DRAMATIC MUSIC**

[@alicetippet6007]

Caught me off guard, starting pissing myself at 12 at night

[@RightAwayProductions005]

where is your girlfriend…?

[@alansmithee419]

@@RightAwayProductions005 She's at work.

[@krakendb]

Where does she work again?

[@aspuzling]

We're missing the most satisfying part of the 2p machine which is the sound of a whole stack of coins falling into the collector.

[@MaybeAnnatar]

I know a lot of people have said this, but I've been watching this channel for over a decade and this genuinely is maybe the best era of this channel.

[@thekingoffailure9967]

The best era is actually from 2025 - 2030 but you’re too young to understand it yet

[@mads_in_zero]

Biggest surprise of this video is definitely Dan being _genuinely_ good at this. Normally his bravado falls apart, for the sake of comedy.

[@farshnuke]

He's like an xmen with the most pathetic super power and it's glorious

[@rebtheenby2098]

9:27 excuse me you like trains too

[@Mini_Squatch]

yeah, real stones in glass houses moment, that one

[@ThatOneShortieHo]

Yeah but consider this; trains are cool.

[@ryttyr14]

I like trains

[@SunroseStudios]

that was probably the joke lol

[@bobbys332]

True 2P machine strategy: look around for the ones that are super close to falling, spend just enough to get the goodies, find the next one about to fall and repeat. If none are about to fall wait for some chump to spend a bunch of money getting no goodies but bringing them closer to the edge then jump in when they step away to get more tokens. I may have pissed a few people off...

[@hyperspeed1313]

Thank you for the TomSka reference at 17:28

[@tehherpderp7007]

and a proper classic one to boot, recognised it immediately

[@theseanobear9199]

A fellow man of culture I see

[@SoraHjort]

It's funny how both Dan and Ashens has shown up in TomSka skits. Infact, Ashens showed up in the sequel to The Hole "The Orb". UK Tubers sometimes feel like they're well connected with each other.

[@Stargazeer]

My brain literally makes that sound whenever I hear the words "The Hole" so I was so happy to see that stupid little reference

[@samholdsworth420]

TomSka never heard of him

[@TW-80]

As a man who used to build these 2p machines. I can promise the arcade are winning a lot more money than the player :)

[@JBG-AjaxzeMedia]

watch Mark Robers video about arcade machine scams, fascinating stuff, especially when you consider that they can just decide how much the machines will pay out

[@8stormy5]

Yeah, but I just like watching coins fall and shove each other and I will gladly pay to see it

[@skellious]

oh we're well aware. but we're paying for the lights and the noise of the falling coins.

[@TW-80]

@@JBG-AjaxzeMedia Yep I know, I used to test fruit machines too. I worked for Bell Fruit Games a few years ago

[@Moocow2003]

absolutely just paying to watch the coin falling into a stack because it brings me more joy than anything else i can pay 2p for

[@liamross340]

im not joking I want a 10 hour livestream of just this

[@liamross340]

you're all welcome btw

[@VickUwU]

I dont know how you manifested this

[@uglybeatz5139]

why isnt this video an hour long

[@HarryAyA]

My god, it's been over a decade, but Nerdcubed has slipped through the cracks and made it back into my recommended. Also the physics to this game are so good but they somehow can't replicate the millions of coins that somehow hang 20cm over the shelf without falling.

[@earzo7]

I wasn't sold on this 'trickle down economics' thing but having seen a simulation of the physics I'm pretty convinced.

[@agspots2999]

The NOSTALGIA this brought me! Throwback to a budget family holiday at Butlins making a £1 coin go the distance

[@alicehorry]

as a skegness local, i approve this video

[@Soraking007]

Oh ur from skegness im so sorry that you have ti endure that. Jokes, i love skegness

[@jackholmes2374]

oh god why haven't you left yet

[@spacemcguffin]

I would watch this for hours. Please stream or do more!

[@yetanother9127]

I don't know what British coins are made of, but American coins are mostly zinc, which is not magnetic. This is actually exploited by some vending machines, which use a magnet to catch steel coin slugs.

[@cool110]

Due to rising metal prices the 1p and 2p changed from bronze to copper-plated steel in 1992, followed by the 5p and 10p going from cupro-nickel to nickel-plated steel in 2011.

[@JBG-AjaxzeMedia]

all our coins are made from a cheap metal but then just lightly plated with a more shiny metal to make them look nicer lol

[@yetanother9127]

@@cool110 Ah, that'd explain it--steel is definitely magnetic. The US minted some steel pennies during WWII, since regular pennies were made of entirely copper alloy rather than copper-plated zinc back then, and copper was getting scarce due to the war; as a result, the 1943 steel pennies are the only regular-issue US coins that can be picked up with a magnet.

[@John_Smith.]

@@yetanother9127 Some steels are magnetic (the vast vast majority in fact) but not all. Notably, a handful of stainless steel variants aren't.

[@georgedodd7117]

Mr Cubed, welcome to mastermind, your specialist subject please…… Dan - *Whips out a tub of 2ps like yugi moto drawing his last card* 😎

[@Naro_Rivers]

...I was going to say "a train hobby doesn't flush all my money down the drain," but then I remembered, no, a drug addiction would be cheaper.

[@nobodyspecial7895]

The machine so beloved they turned it into a gameshow... for some reason.

[@WestEnderPAP]

There shall be no Tipping Point slander here!

[@robinkingsley1772]

we need an irl lets play of an actual 2p machine

[@Hamboining]

God after a decade of watching him the "hello procrastinators" never gets old

[@Connie.T.]

3:50 "look how neat and organized that top is compared to that bottom" Well, I certainly wasn't expecting to be called out in this video 🤣

[@nessthecat]

Dan, aka "The Scourge of Skegness"

[@alansmithee419]

18:15 Oh lord, he's gone all peculiar.

[@lewisrowley3429]

17:26... all that remains is 'The Orb'

[@_._infinity_._2890]

I've been watching since a boy, now 22 and still enjoy watching your videos. Thank you

[@bogusnixx9773]

You're recent Plays videos have been bringin me back to when i use to rewatch your spore series several times late at night, or when i use to get excited about your newest FTL videos, you're probably the only part of my childhood that hasn't gotten mundane for me, love you Dan! Say it back damn it...

[@RandomCat125]

"Get out of here tutorial " "How do I play?" Me too

[@Connor.]

only NerdCubed could make me enjoy a Coin Pusher game video

[@ANeo-px1cc]

I’ve been watching you for years! I’m glad you’re still making content!

[@justinrippole1455]

this feels like the most fun you've ever had recording a video and it comes through lmao.

[@adamhooper2476]

I could watch Dan play this all day.

[@HieProductionsMovies]

I love still watching your videos, even though I grew up with them. I always rewatch the roller coaster tycoon series

[@yourhighschoolenglishteach8405]

9:50 in the US, these machines are consistently either quarters, or, more likely in modern arcades, tokens that don’t even leave the machine. this often completely ruins the game - instead of getting more coins to use when you knock them off, you get like two worthless tickets.

[@addictedfoolgamer1970]

Coin pushers give me childhood trauma vibes. Mum playing them for ages whilst I stared at the Mortal Kombat 2 arcade machine longingly

[@nefariouszulu]

The only guy I can sit and watch play a coin pusher simulator for 20 min. True entertainment

[@Hendlton]

I would have never guessed that Dan was a gambling addict.

[@dustycamera3171]

You can allways tell when Dan is SUPER into a game. This is definitely on of those times, love ta see it:)

[@bugberrycloth5327]

Love your content Dan! Been watching for yrs. Glad to see you posting still.

[@Alex-jm9zp]

I cant believe you still upload i literally havent watched you in 10 years. i always end up coming back to a video i loved its the gta 4 tsunami thingy i miss being young.

[@YerminDX]

Loved the impression of MATN Jon: "Oooh I like trains"

[@WhiteWolf496]

I could literally watch Dan play this forever.

[@SatinFoxx]

Just watched a video talking about how bad Monopoly Go is for copying Coin Pusher Casino, both being horrible gambling pits that should be shut down. Next day? Dan: GAMBLING!

[@zim_the_vixen]

Can we ask what video this is? It sounds fun ^^

[@farshnuke]

I adore this video and I would happily watch an entire series of Dan trying out different 2p machine games. Just Matt maybe get him an auto clicker to stop his hand giving out.

[@lexingtonlegacy3489]

I just spent 18 minutes watching a man play a coin drop game...I regret nothing

[@zim_the_vixen]

dan holy shit we need so much more of this. We don't know why but this is. So fun? It's like, well, dangling a keychain in front of a baby. We want more of it!

[@shoebox6741]

I'm glad you're appearing on my recommended again

[@kaylacasagood]

After 2+ years of not watching I’m glad I clicked on this

[@dahn57]

Yeah, I love the ol' 2p machines as well Dan, they are something that my Dad used to love as well.

[@kvg5829]

this needs to be a series.

[@Suileron]

I would absolutely 100% watch a live stream of this game...idk why. But I would. And I'd be happy.

[@gferrol118]

I wasn't expecting the sudden tomska reference

[@Morley-White]

Dan demonstrating social mobility with 10p coins

[@willnewlands9588]

Finally, Dan does gambling for 20 minutes

[@lokinighton7299]

I love Keychains! Not minions though, give me Scooby Doo :3

[@DisAnimated]

I will forever love my 2p machine Shaggy keyring, with it's misaligned eyes and unpainted back.

[@GreatSageSunWukong]

I always won on coin pushers, the key is not to be the person putting the money in, but to be the person who walked past the machine 15 mins later when it finally pays out and the person who put the money in gave up and walked off long ago.

[@tigersforlife6767]

I could watch Dan play this forever

[@mrnutman096]

i need a livestream of this

[@Mrlolba]

Nice Tomska "Hole" reference near the end.

[@Saltail]

God forbid Dan ever goes to Japan, he'll never leave the medal games

[@J-Playz]

man i miss gta 4 tsunami days much love Nerd been watching since youtube looked much, much different :)

[@HaiImGriff]

As an American I feel extremely ripped off, these machines cost 25¢ to imagine I’ve been paying 10x what the English are

[@Notester82]

Aaaaaaaaaa, fun video! c: Your expertise and enthusiasm for coin pushers was fun to see! So many funny moments toooooo, even right at the beginning of the video (0:42), heheh!

[@charlieluck4620]

Dan going to weston super mare baffles me, I've been there for for 5 years studying at college and uni and I hate it

[@c_b4102]

anyone else notice the tomska hole reference or have i just been watching youtube for to long

[@_itsfatal]

it misses the fun of taking stray 2ps out of machines no ones using. but I know id still sink so much time into this

[@bloopshloop7553]

“i like watching coins go downhill” the politicians watching are in agreement

[@Morley-White]

The tomska reference caught me off guard 😂😂😂

[@MrJamesbondo07]

"my hands crampin" ya no shit, your clicking 3 times for every coin drop

[@scratchliquid1]

Please make this some type of series Coin Pusher Permadeath? Completes?

[@Highraven]

I get the feeling you like 2p machines, but only a little

[@potatosordfighter666]

Dan, you should try Kick Bastards. Mirrors edge meets kicking meets bastarding

[@6105boe]

We. Need. More!

[@THENAMEISQUICKMAN]

Before I realized arcades are way better when you actually play the games and not just soft gambling, I LOVED the Pac-Man coin pusher called Pac-Man Ball. Both the 2p and 10p versions were EVERYWHERE where I am (I live just a stone's throw from Cleethorpes).

[@Knight_Vibes]

the deep cut tomska is why i'm here

[@NatInTheHat49]

As an arcade employee i see about 20 dans daily normally 40yr old dads balding in crocs who think they are a 2p diety

[@theshaggycreeper220]

That was my favorite 50, now it’s in the hole

[@BeckyScottFairley]

I want to see Dan appear on tipping point.

[@fostej99]

Oh god i need more of this hahaha

[@CJ2CUTE]

new branding goes so hard

[@Ramonatho]

I'd watch a full playthrough.

[@TheLiamster]

Tipping point is my favourite game show

[@camhalls9366]

17:26 the hole reference

[@markjackson2395]

Next stop Tipping Point....... Watch out Ben!

[@elrehaan]

My favourite was the chocolate and tampons machine

[@PP-Caught-In-Toaster]

I'm more worried about the space octopus...

[@ZechsMerquise73]

this needs a cookie clicker mod

[@alansmithee419]

17:28 Thank you.

[@venomx2]

Please do start a 2p plays channel I'd watch.

[@shawbag11]

This seams like the sorta game that if i could play it on the steam deck id never do anything else XD

[@NathanWeeks]

I'll add this to the things to do while waiting for Fallout 4 mods to work again.

[@alansmithee419]

8:50 Some coins are magnetic, some aren't. I think most aren't. Including most 2p coins.

[@isaacbrown5162]

COIN GAME LES GO

[@phia7286]

I am not British. I kept hearing toupee machine.

[@chatcast5833]

Gotta cash those tickets out for some fake Lego😂

I just bought the game along with some other coin pushers on steam.

[@stefanejegod8644]

Huh, so it's addiction, is it? For some reason I think the execs of EA is looking VERY closely at this content.

[@MrZilverdrake]

There is no reason I should be watching this.
