they are player, no tokens used

maury......those things are amazing. I wouldn't buy one, but I am impressed with their creativeness. I guess you could call them CU pachishlo's.

Those short ones remind me of the old Mills QT. Hide 'em under the counter when the raid starts.

Arby, what are their purpose? Sort of a salesman sample? :confused:

[arbycoffee]

Tj, remember they don't have the room we got here so if you are going to collect something, small is very important. Plus they can set it on a table to play, when done put away. I never heard of a salesmans sample, but as I have learned, I don't know much and as I get older I know even less. You can ask my wife!
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Apartments in Japan are about the size of our bedrooms.

everything must be smaller, even the people.

I concur with all said above. I have seen that Xplay episode where people at video game company were LIVING UNDER DESKS. (In Japan obviously)

So home used pachi-slo and pachinko's tend to get.... Miniaturized..

Which Desk Drawer is for your under wear ?

You go to miss Sings Desk and open a drawer to get a pencil to take notes, and to find a pencil you got to wade through a bunch of thongs & push-up black bras or a pile of riding crops.
I think after a short time you wouldn't need a pencil at all.
I can see it disrupping the work place.

I also remember seeing that on what used to be called Tech TV now its G4 something on Digital Cable here.

You don't happen to have a copy of that episode do you Mr. Fixx? It was very interesting as they did have a hard time getting the girl host of the show away from the Pachinko Parlor as I recall....

[mr. fixx]

Believe me, I wish I kept that episode.. Of all the X-Play's I have saved on TIVO, I wish that was one. I will look to see if by some miracle I saved it. Xplay is the ONLY show i watch on G4 now, mainly because of the lovely Morgan Webb. She has said several time she definatily loves Pachinko. I even think they did a follow up Japan episode and there she was again playing the little siver balls.. HEHEHE.. Lemme check my vast bank of X-play epps on the TIVO.. I sure hope its there. Anyone else have this epp on DVD or tape or Tivo Or whatever?!??!!?

After looking through my TIVO, I did NOT save this epp.. DOH! DOH!

However I have made a request for it on Usenet. Perhaps someone has it..

I never saw the follow up to that episode. I recorded the original episode on my hardrive but erased it before I even thought about posting it here.

Gawd she is something..isn't she....
