    Default If you could design a pachislo...

    Wouldn't be great if there was a "Willy Wonka" of the pachislo industry?
    And how freakin awesome would it be to be awarded a "Golden Ticket" (so to speak) by hitting a hidden bonus on one of these wonderful machines?
    A Golden Ticket that would entitle you as the winner to design your dream pachislo.

    What theme would you choose?
    What company would you want to produce it?
    What features would you include... a touch screen, LCD, Plasma, surround sound, 4 reels, etc?

    I'm not talkin customs here...
    If you were granted one pachiwish to construct your ultimate factory fresh skill stop machine,

    What Would It Be?
    __________________________________________

    Personally, I have at least half a doz titles that I'd love to see manufactured.
    Mostly movie titles like Hellboy, Jaws, & I'd like to see a "digital remaster" of the Star Wars pachislo.
    (personally I'm not in love with what they put out in the 1st one, especially for $750)... sorry

    Anyway, the one at the top of my list would be The Matrix
    I honestly can't believe that no manufacturers ever made this.
    Although the 2 sequels weren't the powerhouse the 1st film was, it's still a better trilogy than the Jar Jar years.

    If I were to commision this pachi I would contract AbiliT or Yamasa.

    This is what I would include
    2 video screens - The 1st would be fullscreen such as the Starwars/LOR machines (no physical reels) & the second would be up top between the speakers.
    They would simultaneously interact during gameplay & the top would mostly handle movie clips whereas the fullscreen would be the "videogame" portion.

    Wireless connectivety - Where in certain rounds you could "battle" others that play/own another Matrix pachislo.

    Webcam feature - You could see who you are battling (top screen) & posibly include an interface
    where the cam would scan your face to the face of an ingame character.

    And a system for tracking credits between machines...
    For instance, if you had a battle against another pachi player, you could win credits from them & they would lose credits.

    How about you? What would you design?

    I am a sucker for redemption games (tickets, small stuffed animals, ect.)
    I like winning something more than the money or tokens.

    So I would have a "cage" of some sort at the top of the machine and when you hit a certan level a stuffed animal shows up in the cage that you need to free. I can't think of any movies to link it to but that would be cool. Then if you hit the jackpot the cage breaks open and you get to keep the animal that you saved.

    I have a Beat The Dragon Pachislo and I can see that being applied to that theam, Maybe to save the princess (Cutie Honey) from the Dragon. Then you get to take her home with you.

    Is it wrong to watch cartoons with your kids even if the only reason is because the character is hot? I think not!

    A pachislo... hmmmm.

    Theme - 1: Leiji Matsumoto "special". With advancements in thumb drive space it should be easy enough to make a machine that cycles through all of his animation. - "Star Blazers", "Captain Herlock", "Galaxy Express 999".

    Theme - 2: Chobits, this was an amazingly cute anime. And talk about sexy!

    Talking Re: If you could design a pachislo...

    Well since there have been several horse racing machines in the past, maybe they could make one with a little track with horses above the reels..a real mini oval with tiny horses above the reels...behind glass maybe with a sort of EL Vision thing with like people watching or fireworks and stuff??

    It would be like a mini version of the arcade games...maybe with 4 tiny horses

    Here's my artistic representation!!
