    Smile Military guy in Japan

    Tittle basically says it all, I'm new here just recently started collecting pachinko and pachislo from my local area (Nagasaki) I've been in japan for 2 and a half years and im having a great time. My current machines are:

    Pachinko, Cr Evangelion 7, cr Stealth
    Pachislo, Monster Hunter, Eureka 7, Bio hazard 5.

    If you guys have any suggestions on what to get I will be glad to listen, I currently plan to buy, Ghost in the shell standalone (pachinko) and gundam wing G (pachinko).

    Welcome Aboard

    Good choice of machines, But I expect, you will be able to test the newer models a year or more before we get the chance

    I try to make a weekly or bi-weekly visit to a few local pachinko parlors around here. But you guys have been doing this far longer then me. I look forward to learn from your experience and advice.

    Welcome to PachiTalk!

    I hope to make the trip out to Japan someday.

    As far as suggestions goes, you have a golden opportunity to try different machines and get a feel for the ones that reach out to you.

    Welcome! I was up in Misawa. Lots of snow but very pretty countryside. The machines you mention are top on my list.

    Hello

    Welcome to PachiTalk

    It must be wonderful to be able to play the machines in parlours regularly

    Welcome. So, do they let you keep the pachinkos in the barracks, or are they in the recreation center? Or are you housed?

    I am currently living off base in a house I'm renting. I also got a car on the cheap. Luckily they have a select amount of stores where I can pick up used pachinko/pachislo machines cheap. Ex: I paid ¥10,000 for my evangelion 7 pachinko and it looks brand new not a scratch on it. I'll be happy to post videos of local pachinko machines if anyone has requests.
