    Default First Pachinko for family with kids.

    I had a vintage pachinko as a child and I want to buy my kids a modern pachinko. I have narrowed it down to popeye, olive loves popeye, monster mansion 2, or king fu panda. Kung fu panda looks neat with joystick but I cannot tell if it makes gameplay more enjoyable. Any thoughts on which unit would provide family more enjoyment and lasting gameplay? I know it is mostly opinion but I do not have video for half of these.

    I saw thst video and popeye but no videos for olive loves or monster mansion 2. Kung fu is clearly more advanced one and the joystick is a rarity in pachinko. The graphics are quite good too. Im leaning toward kung fu panda.

    I think you should buy Pachinko Tom & Jerry, its a really fun game and kids love it.

    I know it's not on your list, but I'd have to agree on Tom & Jerry!

    Very entertaining for all ages.

    I saw it but I wanted to start a little lower price point for the first one. There are a lot of nice ones under $450 USD.

    I ended up going with Kung Fu Panda Pachinko Machine. Hopefully this is just the first of several.

    I agree kids would love it but wife would hate the cost. It is a compromise to get started. Go in low and then add to collection.

    Here some advise, if you have 1 machine, and hit a FEVER, you will win alot of pachinko balls, close to 2000, so if I was you, I would purchase extra balls, 2000 at the least, you need a tray in front to collect your winnings, and a tray or box behind to collect shot balls.

    Once you hit a FEVER, you will go 4-15 rounds of chances to win, and you will win alot of balls, with 500 balls, you keep dumping balls won, into top, and rewinning them back until machines pays you off, when I only had 3 machines and maybe 2000 total balls, it was alot of work when I hit the FEVER mode.

    If you want it to be family fun, make sure there enough pachinko balls on hand, I would advise 2500 and 2 trays in front, or it will find a home in the corner of garage due to being to much work when you hit a Fever mode

    Just a little advise, I now have 8 machines, and 20,000 balls

    I have a thousand balls for my Yamato Resurrection and I'm reloading the hopper about once every 45 seconds to one minute during the fever round. I will eventually add at least another two thousand balls.
