    Default Pokemon Pachislo

    I searched but have not come across a Pokemon Pachislo machine. That seems like a no-brainer for the Japanese. How has that not happened yet?

    Probably a licensing issue. I.e. money

    If machines makers can afford to license from likes of marvel comics, I would think they could work something with pokemon, but maybe so.

    Yeah... and do you really want to market gambling to a youth-heavy target group?

    Like there's not gonna be a "Yo Gabba Gabba!" slot machine any time soon.

    I see mostly 30 something millennials playing Pokemon. One could also make the same argument about all the comic book machines. In any case, I'm assuming kids aren't in the pachislo parlors to begin with.

    While it's true that a lot of people who were children when Pokémon came out still play Pokémon, its target demographic is still children worldwide, and children under the age of 18 are banned from entering parlors s:

    i guess you could take the fact that they removed pachislo gambling from the games themselves starting with Heartgold/soulsilver on due to the fact that the virtual gambling would cause them to lose their lowest rating outside of Japan as reason why they wouldn't make real machines either.
