Just got my first Pachinko...a couple questions
Heya all,
I'm a pinhead and have a few pinball machines and a pinball themed Pachinko machine came up on my local Craigslist so I snagged it for my game room. It's a Sankyo "Julie" machine from the looks of it and it's in near perfect condition. The guy I bought it from didn't know anything about it since it was in a storage auction he got.
Anyway, it powers up and everything looks good but I can't play it due to an error it's throwing out. It's an "Error 8" and it seems it's due to it not having a card reader. So it appears I need a dongle or something to make it think it has a card reader? I googled a bit and came across pinballdave.com and emailed him about it and he recommended I post up here on pachitalk to find a dongle. Am I in the right place?
It also only came with about 20 balls so I just ordered about 1000 more, is that enough?
I know Japan runs off of different voltage, will I need to get a voltage converter as to not damage the machine?
There are two wires with adjustments knobs coming out of the machine (see pics) and I can't figure out what they do. Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance!
