    Welcome to PachiTalk!! We are glad to have you in the club.

    That is a great looking Nishijin model 'C', which are harder to find that most other vintage models. You are correct on the date - 1979.

    Could you post some close up pictures of the cell (playfield) as well as the back of the machine? That will help us to pick out a name for it. Also, the members here are always hungry for pictures and need to be fed regularly.

    Almost no vintage has an official name. Just what's written on the front (if anything) or by theme (is there is one) or just what people think it looks like.

    Personally, I've got a lot called 'Bob'

    It is indeed a Nishijin C, and it is called " octopus eats cats and frightens clown."
    (Well... that's what I'd call it)

    Welcome AZ,

    Thats a good looking Model C you have there. Definitely a keeper.

    How about "Hungry Cats"?

    Name it what you want. Its yours.

    Is AZ from Arizona? I'm working in Phoenix right now! Dont know of any other members from AZ.

    Can't quite make out what the two characters at the top of the center, but the name in the license tag says Sophia - ソフィア, which is the makers name - a division of Nishijin

    I'm lucky if I can figure out characters when they're typed, let along freehand like that

    Welcome to PachiTalk!!

    I think that is a very nice looking Nishijin and a bit different to the ones we usually see, I like the colours and features

    I know we would all love to see pics of your pachinkos in a thread

    You can also post pics into Albums that show on your profile too,
