I think the biggest difference would be that bonus collect would reset to a minimum value when collected (aside from modern games), jackpot values increase even after they are collected.

Quoted from metallik:Most late 80s games reset the jackpot once collected, even during the same multiplayer game.
Good point, did not think of this.
Quoted from zacaj:Many games with a bonus collect don't reset it. Jokerz, TZ, Bow and Arrow (and almost all bally ems). I like to think of this as 'score bonus' not 'collect' since they seem very different in how they play, but everything seems to call it collect either way.
Was not aware of this, TZ and other modern games I realize are different but I thought EMs reset bonus upon collect. My EM playing experience is pretty limited.
