    I found it. it was hidden behind some wires. Heres a pic of the front and back.


    I'm from Visalia, between Bakersfield and Fresno. I have a gameroom with a mame, crazy taxi driving cab, basketball hoops game, and was searching to see if they ever made a matrix pinball and discovered matrix pachinko. I've never played pachinko, but it looked really interesting (And hey, if Kramer plays it at Bob Sacamano's house Pachinko's gotta be fun right?)

    ok so I got the thing powered up and lit up, got balls loaded in the top, but now I cant figure out how to start the game. Wish these came with instruction manuals.

    Thanks for the warm welcome! Man, I'm such a noob lol. This game is a blast. My eight year old son just took over playing. I got this machine from 5 brothers pachinko. Customer service from them was awesome, constant emails from Kazuki letting me know the status of my order. I will definitely be doing business with them again.

    It was the episode where they were bootlegging movies. Jerry asks Kramer where he met Brody the bootlegger. Kramer's response "Funny story, were down at Bob Sacamano's house playing pachinko..." then it goes to a comercial.

    Welcome to the club!! And a Cali pachinko-er, too!!

    I was going to get Matrix as my first machine...I wound up getting Back To The Future instead. But the dual "3D effect" display on the Matrix machine still has me intrigued. Gotta try it sometime!

    I'd love to meet some of the Cali folks. Especially since we seem to have friends who just don't get what we've done with our pachinko machines. Its nice to meet people with similar passion. (hence all of my enthusiastic posts here)

    We're in Thousand Oaks, just north of Los Angeles.

    I'm already telling the wife we need to buy a second pachinko. Thinking Star Wars Darth Vader. I'm addicted to pachinko.

    If you are looking to purchase another pachinko already, you need to get a Macross pachinko. That is a really fun, colorful and intense game play machine.
    It's VERY IMPRESSIVE!

    I've got Macross pachinko, and it definitely is impressive...but the specs are awfully high, making it really hard to get any sort of attractive payoff out of it. But the V-Trigger frame is cool in that its easy to take out one cell and put another compatible cell in, thus giving you a whole new pachinko game to play. I took out my Macross cell and swapped in Ranma 1/2. Though to be honest, even with its high specs, the Macross game is just prettier.

    I have a bunch of cells I got off of Yahoo Japan Auctions (via Juno) that don't actually fit the frames I have. I've been thinking of turning them into wall art while not in use. Maybe build a functional shadow box that will store them on the wall?

    Pics below of the Macross V-Trigger frame with Ranma 1/2 cell (left) and Macross Fever (right):
