    Default Nishijin Monroe Pachinko



    There's a Nishijin Monroe pachinko for sale on eBay UK

    Nishijin Monroe Vintage American Arcade Machine. Rare Item | eBay

    Starting price is £80

    Listing states it's untested, you will need a power converter and there's no mention of any pachinko balls

    and I believe this is what the centre feature should look like when it's working, looking at member mudfud's video

    Looks like this one sold for £83

    but was it anyone here that got it?

    If so, you may wish to check it over before hand, as the Listing has been updated with the following!!:

    UPDATE. Just had a friend over who "knows a bit about electrics" said it "should be ok" to just wire a UK plug in and plug it in. No, I don't think it was. It turned on and all lit up but was making a loud buzzing noise. In the 20 seconds or so I spent deciding whether to risk touching it, I noticed smoke coming from the back so promptly switched it off! A converter WILL be needed.

    checking the feedback,
    "item as described very happy" sounds like the buyer is happy

    so maybe it wasn't totally fried afterall?
