    Default Found a Pachislo arcade.

    On a busined trip to Philidelphia I wnt to play pinball at the University Arcade on the University of Pennsylvania campus at the corner of Spruce and 40th. To my supprise they had about 6 game token dispensing Pachislos. They did not dispense tickets. It was
    Way cool. I live in pachislo unfriendly California so this was a big suprise. There must be others, post others below.

    That is really cool! I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever head down that way. Can anyone go there or do you need to be a student? Sadly, there are not any pachislo arcades in my area.

    They started out with a few pinball machines in a laundry mat until the games were making more money than the laundry.

    At one time they had 11 machines for sale.

    Several YouTube videos from 2011 show what was there, but no slots then.

    Anyone can play but they do not want kids there late at night. Thanks pachi_slot for the google map link. The neighborhood is tricky to get around and there is a jug handle that you have to find to get on the one way street back to I-76. Also watch out for streetcars.
