    Default Star Wars Pachinko Question

    I'm thinking about buying a Star Wars Pachinko in the future (Maybe next month). Is there a difference between the white and red model, they look identical to me. I was trying to compare them on pachislo.com website. Its hard to see the with there small pics. One other thing does the Star Wars machine have playability on both sides. I owned a Popeye before and wasn't happy with it. Only one side really got any action, the right side would just go down to the tray if you shot to far.

    The white case is the original Sankyo "Lumina" model. The red case is otherwise identical and is sold for different games by "Bisty" which is a subsiduary. Either case is functional and the color becomes personal preference.

    The gameplay is down the left side and there are no nails down the right side. There is however a second starter pocket on the top right of the cell. If you shoot the ball too hard, there is a ball drain channel down the right side. I find that this makes for a predominately left sided play yet leaving a reason to shoot the ball to the right side.

    This is a very entertaining machine with something always happening.

    Another thing with the Popeye is the theme song got on my nerves. Is Star Wars like this also, I think I could handle it more than the Popeye.

    As Dishpan says it is Left Hand Play,
    but please don't let that put you off in any way.....

    There is far too much happening in this Game to be worried about Left and Right hand side play........It is amazing with its Star Wars footage, Dazzing Light Displays, Awesome Sound and of course the Cute little animated Droid R2D2!!


    Most of the Modern Pachinkos are Left Hand Play these days anyway....

    I don't think there are many - if any - who have been diappointed with Star Wars?!

    Angie ...
    Pachinkos, Pachislos, Coffee, Papercraft Ninja, Pinball

    I ran away with the Steampunk Circus!
    I was hiding in a room in my mind...
    You crush the lily in my soul...

    Hey, you're talking about John Williams and Star Wars! The music stirs the soul! It does get a little tiresome after you've seen the movies dozens of times, but not as annoying as other games that I've played. I especially like the music during the 100 round chance mode after a Fever.
