the reason is the thing that makes claw legal for anyone to own and play is the fact they are skilled based.these claws remove the skill and rely on luck so they are basically slot mechanics.
I'd love to see more of these strategy videos. The mechanics are fascinating to me, and one of the reasons I watch your videos is to try and Learn how to make better grabs.
I had a dream that I was at an arcade and I played a claw machine that was fifty dollars per play and I won on the second play and I looked at my dad and said "Twoooooooo!" I watch you guys too much.
Hey guys, we hope you enjoy our little tips and tricks video on beating E Claw machines! How do you feel about E Claws? They're definitely become more common in arcades :/ Comment below with your thoughts and have a great day!
I can't believe you all walked out of there with 4 stuffed animals. Amazing. And I found this channel surfing around how to pick locks in machine. Crazy.
Awesome guys :) I won from an e-claw the payout was reset as they just put "new" plush in there, so impossible to win but it flew into the prize chute of the machine next to it. The sensor didn't go off cause we were not playing that side. Video will be up soon, have had trouble with uploading content for a couple of days :(
If the E Claw lets you drop it over (or nearly over) the prize chute, then using the Swing Technique is invaluable. Position the claw over the prize shoot (or hopefully as far over the edge as possible), then jerk the joystick back and forth so the claw swings. With correct timing, you can get it to swing from the prize chute back into the play field. When it grips the prize, it'll drag it towards the prize chute. Regardless if it's on payout, it'll be better positioned to drop the prize into the chute. So on the couple of plushes where you had it land on the edge and then fall back into the play field, it could have been that extra centimeter that would have made fall into the prize chute instead. :)
I'm usually pretty good at the Claw Game, sometimes I can win a pair of plushies with just a play If I get lucky ( 2 Coins)...however,lately I can't seem to make it anymore. Even tho the plushies are in a good position, the Claw does not seem to grab, unless you spend a certain amount of money. I noticed this happens a lot with the giant Claws. Those are the same machines that used to give me prizes before...could it be that the machines have been tampered to reach an even higher Payout quote? This is not really fair!
Hahaha we probably should've emphasized that tip a bit more ;) Thanks so much! We've been wanting to do some proper tips/tricks/tutorial videos so maybe we'll do more soon :)
I did all those techniques without knowing this AWESOME VID and i got Grizzly Bear from We Bare Bears and gave it to my best friend (which is her bday though) Ill. Use these someday again
The Crane Couple I feel as though every arcade I come across has at least five E claws.For example Bush Gardens,Arcade City,etc... But this video will definitely help alot of people save money and even beat the E claw.I hope you guys have a great day and can't wait for you guys to publish Tuesday's video! :)
Thanks so much Lesley! Yes E Claws are definitely popping up in more arcades, which isn't good for us players :( But we really hope that our little video helps!
1. Pause at 6:41 2. Look at the $1.00 sign (the one in the lower place) 3. Look at the rectangular thing beside it 4. Push it for 5 seconds until it pops out 5. Rotate it 6. Then play :>
If you live in the UK and the claw machines place 6 plush in the machines then play each machine once and move on. Southend seafront for example has well over 30 claw machines at 20p ago. So you can try 30 machines for just £6. Usually you will hit at least 1 machine that's ready to payout. There's really no other way to win them round here but I've had quite a few wins by doing this.
Thanks for the tips crane couple. Britany did a thug life 😎 winning the tweety like a boss. When the machine pays out it makes life so much easier to win your prize 😬😁
We basically we need to calculate how much we would originally spend on the plush per try and see how much it's worth and methodically calculate out the optimal amount we would be willing to spend on it. :/ Oh gosh, Eclaw makes me feel so cheated, but FANTASTIC video!
I use this technique when i take my son to our nearest arcades and ALWAYS win a prize or 2. I won two large sequin plushes the other week-a unicorn and a penguin. Going for avengers soon hehe. Thanks for the great video guys x
how to win E claws where we live 1) get very lucky and hit payout... because on every single one they only do a single layer on the bottom spread out just enough so you can't work it towards the shoot well
Haha yes, payout is pretty much the only way to win on those machines with only a small number of plushes on the field :( We're lucky that some of the machines we frequent are filled properly!
E claws are really hard to win from and are very common In the UK we also have a common claw machine, being the EX1 claw machine, any hacks on how to win on them?
You guys are lucky, here in the UK they usually just put 6 - 9 plushies in a machine so you really need to lift them up and in. You don't get them to fall in.
There are definitely some arcades around here that do the same thing and it sucks! :( No good way of winning those aside from hoping for the machine to finally hit payout
i usually just aim for the top.sometimes they have strings (yknow? the strings so you can hang it on someplace?). 55% of the time, i get it. if i dont aim for it maybe its like 15%
That is a great question Lara! We wanted to cover that in the video but couldn't find a moment to put that in. E-Claws make things trickier since they seem to be more sensitive about weight than the average claw machine. Typically we go for the arms and legs of a plush since it's lighter, plus the limbs help keep the plush on the claw :) But sometimes the head is so heavy that it'll cause the plush to fall out anyway. We have picked up some plush by the head and had it work, but have also seen machines drop the plush faster (or not lift at all) if the claw picks up the heavier side :( So generally we go for the lighter end. Hope that helps!
Those are some nice tips, but what I noticed the guy was doing was a bit counterproductive. I think if he aimed for the head at the 54-second or 1:14 mark instead of the body, he might have pushed it closer in and saved himself a few tries. Though were you aiming for the body because of the weight of the head? Though the Sccoby one probably wouldn't suffer that problem and grabbing the part away from the chute would have knocked it in.
It's so annoying, at our arcade, all they have are E-Claws and they don't fill them up AT ALL! They have about 5 plush in each of them so they're not even close to the chute. 😞 Great video though!
Ugh, we hate when arcades set up the machines like that! Some places near us do the same thing - we just avoid playing them since there isn't really a way to win aside from hoping to finally hit the payout :(
our claw machine in the philippines, the grip is super light. we cant even move the toy. its almost really wasting money. i learned tips n tricks from youtube though. i have a loott of toys now. mostly if the toy is really near the edge or with that lucky 1 token 1 win. or count the number of tries before the grip thightens. some machine the grip will get stronger until a win. some it will tighten up only once like after 30 tries or something.
Does Dave and Busters have good games? I would really want to go but I wanna know if its also not wasting money because I have siblings that I knowow that they will want me to win them something. Anyway Nice video! Keep up the good work!
Dave and Buster's is probably the best place around for ticket games at least :) The small claw machines are usually set to be pretty fair too! But we recommend staying away from the giant claw machine unless you have a lot of money to blow XD
how to win from an eclaw:
1. you don’t
Great tutorial! I am surprised state laws allow payout claws to exist. It is basically a type of gambling.
Courtney Barnes idiot
NoobDood why?
*applause*
the reason is the thing that makes claw legal for anyone to own and play is the fact they are skilled based.these claws remove the skill and rely on luck so they are basically slot mechanics.
what a payout
How to win it?
Take hammer and break the glass
You win
Thank you guys! I have NEVER won anything out of an Eclaw, but I am going to try the tricks and hopefully I can win something. :)
You're welcome Chris :) We're all about helping people and hope that this helps even a little!
I was totally screaming here like I was the one playing 😂😂 Im excited and motivated to play this again. Thanks for the fun! 😊
I once pushed down a plush that was at the border, and the claw strimg broke :( the owner gave me a mean look and put the plush back to the machine
Oh my goodness, I can't believe they did that :( It's not your fault that they can't take good care of their machine!
Kiarapoke well he/she must be fired
Kiarapoke why is that so funny 😂
wtf
I mean you can tho its from the claw machine right
Eclaw is the majority of the claw machines near me - I have no luck but loads of fun playing them!
Thank you for the upload. I live in England and there is a lot of E Claws. This will help me. Xx
You're welcome Hollie, hopefully it helps :) If there aren't that many plushes in the machine then there isn't much you can do though!
I'd love to see more of these strategy videos. The mechanics are fascinating to me, and one of the reasons I watch your videos is to try and Learn how to make better grabs.
you win by not playing XD
Just buy at near store, the price more cheap lol
I had a dream that I was at an arcade and I played a claw machine that was fifty dollars per play and I won on the second play and I looked at my dad and said "Twoooooooo!" I watch you guys too much.
LOL!! $50 per play - is there a real car in there or something?? XD

Nice work!! Gotta love those unexpected wins :) Looking forward to the video!
E Claws are taking over arcades. They're everywhere now!! Lol. But great video anyways. :D
I know right?? Ugh. Hate those things XD But hopefully this helps even a little!
The Crane Couple same!!

GTdba I think the claw is set to grab loose for a certain amount of tries until it actually tightens it’s gripped than that time you actually win
You couldn't of explained it better, especially tip #1 lol
Great tips and video :-)
Hahaha we probably should've emphasized that tip a bit more ;) Thanks so much! We've been wanting to do some proper tips/tricks/tutorial videos so maybe we'll do more soon :)
Thankyou for making this video!This really will help when playing E claws.Amazing video as always.Keep up the great work. :)
No problem Lesley, thanks for watching it! Let us know if this helps at all :)
You are sooo happy but the happy ends when you look at you wallet/purse XD
LOL! This is so true XD
The Crane Couple lol thanks
Great video and tips! My son my screaming everytime that first one dropped and then raised his hands in victory when you dropped it. LOL
Haha thanks guys! We were feeling the same way when we were there XD Tried to keep it together so we could actually explain what was going on!
I did all those techniques without knowing this AWESOME VID
and i got Grizzly Bear from We Bare Bears and gave it to my best friend (which is her bday though)
Ill. Use these someday again
THX SO MUCH FOR THE TIPS
I am so obsessed with crane machines!!
Nice trick. . Alot of prizes inside, i want to play on that kind of claw machine.thanks guys

Love you guys so much and I love the tips xx
Thanks so much Cody! We hope these tips help you :)
Watching them get so excited and happy 🥺🥺🥺❤️
I'm always spot on with claw machines, problem is how greedy the payout is from arcades in my area.
I saw this video when I searched for Tips and Tricks with a Lamination Machine. I'm glad I clicked it.
I love these machines and enjoyed watching your video. Happy weekend.
great video guys! This helped me alot!
Thanks so much! Hope you win lots :)
ohmygosh!! the dragon is precious
Yes! It's super cute :)

Wow, that's not a bad idea! Hopefully we can all be that lucky :)
I won some Pac Man plush yesterday and the day before. They're so bouncy. They'll just bounce to the prize chute.
Thanks for the tips crane couple. Britany did a thug life 😎 winning the tweety like a boss. When the machine pays out it makes life so much easier to win your prize 😬😁
Haha thanks so much Humais! We'll try to do more tutorials soon :) But probably not on the E-claw - too expensive, lol!
Nice tips and trick guys I'll use it when I come across a e claw. thanks guys :D and like always nice vid.
Thank you Winnie, hopefully our video helps you and others win more :D
Thanks for the tips. I can't seem to win those claw machines that you look down into. The prizes seem to be very heavy inside them.
Thanks for the good tips
No problem Nikolai, hope it helps you and everyone else :)
We basically we need to calculate how much we would originally spend on the plush per try and see how much it's worth and methodically calculate out the optimal amount we would be willing to spend on it. :/ Oh gosh, Eclaw makes me feel so cheated, but FANTASTIC video!
Unfortunately, you will probably find that those calculations mean it's much better to just buy the prize on Amazon or eBay XD
Is the first one a count 2 count because when it almost grabs the plushie you need to press the button
nice tips and tricks video. e claws are mostly very difficult
Very tough! Hopefully our little video helps some people :)
GREAT tips!! With them I got a charmander in only 3 trys!
Love you guys❤️
Thank you :)
I use this technique when i take my son to our nearest arcades and ALWAYS win a prize or 2. I won two large sequin plushes the other week-a unicorn and a penguin. Going for avengers soon hehe. Thanks for the great video guys x
how to win E claws where we live
1) get very lucky and hit payout...
because on every single one they only do a single layer on the bottom spread out just enough so you can't work it towards the shoot well
K & G Claws and Games Same here! They only have about 5 plushies in each machine. Can't work them towards the chute
Haha yes, payout is pretty much the only way to win on those machines with only a small number of plushes on the field :( We're lucky that some of the machines we frequent are filled properly!
I actually didn't know that ELAUTS weaken if multiple plush are together! Thanks for the tips guys! :)
The claws are extremely sensitive to stabbing or grabbing multiple plush :( We learned that the hard way, LOL
The Crane Couple LOL I just avoid ELAUTS in the first place :)
Bacon Productions Haha probably some of the best advice around!!
The Crane Couple yep! I only play skill cranes!
Bacon Productions If only more machines were set to be skill-based XD
E claws are really hard to win from and are very common
In the UK we also have a common claw machine, being the EX1 claw machine, any hacks on how to win on them?
On the EX1s it's basically the same thing, being that they also have a controlled payout rate.
Electronic 50 ok
I can't do the chute one because the Eclaws in england are not full at all
Yeah, some machines just have a handful of plush inside, which means you'll have to rely completely on luck to get anything :(
Love you guys thanks for the tips
great vid
You're welcome, hope it helps :)
When is your next vidio
Wow I'm so jealous how much you guys go to Vegas :P !
Haha we're very lucky to be able to do this ;)
Thanks for the advice guys :)
No problem Rachel, thanks for watching our video :)
You guys are lucky, here in the UK they usually just put 6 - 9 plushies in a machine so you really need to lift them up and in. You don't get them to fall in.
There are definitely some arcades around here that do the same thing and it sucks! :( No good way of winning those aside from hoping for the machine to finally hit payout
Tweet pie was an amazing win 😀love the blue scoby doo
Haha can't believe Tweety's head bounced like that!
i usually just aim for the top.sometimes they have strings (yknow? the strings so you can hang it on someplace?). 55% of the time, i get it. if i dont aim for it maybe its like 15%
Thanks guys!
What brand is that Dragon?
Lolol... “try avoid grabbing anything else.. when you actually have no control over how the claw grabs things. But try not to grab other things”
When picking up the objects, would you aim for the lighter or heavier side?
That is a great question Lara! We wanted to cover that in the video but couldn't find a moment to put that in. E-Claws make things trickier since they seem to be more sensitive about weight than the average claw machine. Typically we go for the arms and legs of a plush since it's lighter, plus the limbs help keep the plush on the claw :) But sometimes the head is so heavy that it'll cause the plush to fall out anyway.

Yaaaaayyyy I've always try to win but I never thx for another great video 😊😊😊
Well we hope that this video helps even a little! Thanks Happiness :)
forgive me for being out of the loop, but what all is wrong with eclaws? i played some last summer and i didn't have a single problem!
Nice bro :)
I love u guys and lol to the tips spend a lot of money
Haha glad you enjoyed it Alexus, thank you :)
Those are some nice tips, but what I noticed the guy was doing was a bit counterproductive. I think if he aimed for the head at the 54-second or 1:14 mark instead of the body, he might have pushed it closer in and saved himself a few tries. Though were you aiming for the body because of the weight of the head? Though the Sccoby one probably wouldn't suffer that problem and grabbing the part away from the chute would have knocked it in.
Took two try's for me, just measure the claw and toy and make sure the toy isn't stuck down wig the other toys.
Thanks for the tips
Hope it helps :)
oooh what are ur guys 3 favorite colors? i wanna send u guys something : ) . Love your vids cant wait till ur next claw adventure
Aww you're too sweet Kelsey-Ann! You really don't have to send us anything, but if you do - we love blue :) Any shade of blue really!
It's cool great vidéo 👏🏼 I am big fan❤️
Thank you very much :)
I only have 1 arcade where I live (Scotland) and all we have is E-claws so i don't get to go a lot but when I do it's just pure luck
Yeah, these machines definitely still require a lot of luck unfortunately :( We hope you win a lot on your next trip!
Thanks for making a tutorial, E claws are more popular in the U.S. so this really helps. :3
spongebob: bee theee craneee!!! *BE THE CRANE*
Awesome tips!
I was curious if it cant lift that bear how did people get phones on that thing or is it fake videos?
how much would it cost to buy one of these plushies outright?
could you do a series of these?? i mean, you explained great, but if you ever find another way to catch something, or another like, weekly tip....
The claws are so tight that is why you get it. In our country, the claws are so weak making it nearly impossible to get one
The E-claws near me are not filled up like the ones near you.
Unfortunately we're noticing more places doing that :( Not a whole lot you can do with those setups, sadly
Nice work!
Thanks so much! BTW, we opened up the letter and put it in our little update video for tomorrow, thanks again for the lovely mail :)
Nice wins!!
Thank you Tevin!
Hooray For Payout!
They are putting a round 1 in my mall and I know you said it was an expensive arcade but how much do you guys usually spend there?
Very expensive! We usually spend around $50 each trip
Thx this has really helped me and my cousin we were able to clean out the claw machine
I have a lot of theses i play like everyday and it seems to be getting easy as you play everyday
thanks for the tips
You're welcome Rose, thanks for watching us :)
you guys are the best
Thank you Enrique!
omg you guys amazing to get that much from eclaw!
Thank you very much Bella! We got pretty lucky during that trip :D
How do you push down the claw instead of picking up?
how do you guys do on pokemon sun and moon i beat the game btw
Wow you're really quick! We still have a long way to go until we beat the game, still on the second island!
lol bc it took me three to get done with the game. i'm pokemon master btw you meet blue and red at the battle tree
Haha .. I had no idea so many people were addicted to claw machines. 🤣👍
It's so annoying, at our arcade, all they have are E-Claws and they don't fill them up AT ALL!
They have about 5 plush in each of them so they're not even close to the chute. 😞 Great video though!
Ugh, we hate when arcades set up the machines like that! Some places near us do the same thing - we just avoid playing them since there isn't really a way to win aside from hoping to finally hit the payout :(
Haha, they know people get addicted when they pick up the plush, "I know I can get it! One more try!!!"
Sort of thing.. lol
Magical Mury LOL that's us, basically XD
What is done with all of the prizes you win?
our claw machine in the philippines, the grip is super light. we cant even move the toy. its almost really wasting money. i learned tips n tricks from youtube though. i have a loott of toys now. mostly if the toy is really near the edge or with that lucky 1 token 1 win. or count the number of tries before the grip thightens. some machine the grip will get stronger until a win. some it will tighten up only once like after 30 tries or something.
At are arcade it does not have a joy stick you can only move back and right and there is like only 7 prizes
thx for the tips I luv u guys so much u rock😍😎
You're welcome Aryanna :)
great video 😘
Thank you!
Does Dave and Busters have good games? I would really want to go but I wanna know if its also not wasting money because I have siblings that I knowow that they will want me to win them something. Anyway Nice video! Keep up the good work!
Dave and Buster's is probably the best place around for ticket games at least :) The small claw machines are usually set to be pretty fair too! But we recommend staying away from the giant claw machine unless you have a lot of money to blow XD
You guys should create EClaw 101
Haha I'm afraid we'd go broke trying to show off even a couple wins XD But we can definitely do more videos like this!
thanks for the tips!!!
Where is this arcade
This was at New York New York in Las Vegas, Nevada :)
