    Default Greetings from Pennsylvania ~

    Hey everybody!

    I'm not new to Pachinko, just new to this forum.

    The first pachinko machine I played is a Nishijin from the early 70s with a little frog in the center. I still have that one. I also have a Maruhon from the 70s, a Sammy Betty Boop from 2002, a Heiwa Owl from 2002, and a Toyotec King of Dumplings from 2004. I'll post some pics when I get some good ones.

    I also have a few video games. Karate Champ, Mat Mania, Black Tiger, Yie-Ar Kung-Fu, and Super Sprint. All these are from the Golden Age of video games in the early to mid-eighties.

    I don't have any pinball tables, but I am running vpinMAME 8 and 9 on a computer in my living room! I was just at the White Rose Gameroom Show in York, PA and saw a bunch of old classic pinballs. Good stuff.

    I managed a bowling alley/video arcade for a few years, and I love to tinker. I've worked on many video games, pinball machines, and the older all-mechanical pachinko machines like the Nishijin Sephia. I'll gladly share as much knowledge as I receive in here, if not more.


    Thanks in advance to all of you who love the noise and chaos and excitement of these games!

    Greetings, also from PA!

    Like you, I have my share of pachinko and pachislo, but I started out in the coin-op world back in 1998. I still have some pins, vids, etc. Gotta keep the collection full! Lol!
