Touch screen pop machine !

It must be tricky having to hold your cup sideways like that.

 

[shortylickens]

I hope they put out multiples of those, cuz people aint gonna wait patiently to get their freakin soda!

Touchscreen!@!@!@!

 

[wirednuts]

its more then that... it can mix any flavor combo in you want. these are awesome.

Less tricky than convincing gravity to work sideways like that...

Welcome to a few years ago.

The only real problem with those machines is that people spend minutes browsing through all the flavors and the lines can get long.

That happens with any soda machine that has more than 4 choices.

ugh... no kidding. as if its not all the same shit anyway...

Those are a pain to use if not set up right...
It's easy for them to use a surface that is to hard or place it to far from the actual screen so that is takes a few tries to register.

lil rudeguy kept his hat on though!

Wow that's pretty neat! Though to me the standard ones are just simpler, no need to over complicate a basic appliance.

It's a toy. It wasn't created for convenience or utility, it was created to get customers to spend more time looking at the brand, a video game that also dispenses soda.

 

[Anonemous]

they have these at my local 5 guys

 

[BladeVenom]

Local Burger Kings and several pizza places have them near me.

I hate these things. Sure you can mix flavors, but every flavor tastes like ass. I just get plain coke.

 

[T_Yamamoto]

They've had this in japan for over 4 years

The standard ones only have a small fraction of the flavors these do, you can get stuff that isn't available anywhere else like strawberry Fanta for example.

They just re-did an old Wendy's near me, and they put these in when they did it. They are awesome! I love the Cherry Vanilla Coke Zero and the Peach Dasani Sensations.

Yeah this was at a brand new BK. The food was absolutely terrible but the machine made the experience great. I even paid $2 to upload the pic since I was at the tapatalk limit.

Don't like these things. Every place I've been that has one, has ONE. Get 2+ people in front of you and you'll be waiting a while.

They do taste excellent though, plain Coca-Cola anyway as that's all I get.

 

[IronWing]

I remember way back in the 80s and I was on long road trip and stopped at a truck stop at ~3am. The restaurant was closed so I thought I'd get a coke from the machine. I put my money in the slot and the machine talked to me. A talking coke machine. I about punched it. Now one of the local gas stations has talking gas pumps. They spew ads at you while you pump your gas. I haven't gone back to that station. Terrible idea, bothering your customers while the gas is spinning by at four bucks a gallon.

 

[lupi]

just saw these for the first time last week. place had two of them.

OMFG I wanted one installed in my house after using it. i'd rather buy a small drink instead of a large just so I could keep refilling with different flavors.

You're not supposed press the touch screen with your tongue.
