    Default Pachislo owners, Give Pachinko a try!

    I know I am a newbie but I think this information has to be spread around on this site. I used to only play American Slots. Then I got into the Japanese slots because they were a lot cheaper and more fun than the American Slots. By coming to this site looking for information on the Pachislos I stumbled onto Pachinko. I was worried at first that I might not like it. I figured what the heck and just go for it. Let me tell you it is one of the best things I ever had done. I purchased the Star Wars Pachinko and it is hands down way above any pachislo I have encountered. This baby is a whole new thing. This game is amazing and if you haven't tried pachinko I urge you to try it. If you are in doubt just pick up a cheap one and try it out. You will be amazed. Just my two cents but I think anyone thinking about it should go for it. I am so glad I did. I am just sorry I hesitated in the beginning. I have a lot of catching up to do. This forum is great for beginners because pretty much any questions you have they will have answers. The people here are great and they go out of their way to help you find the answers. They have pictures and diagrams for almost anything pachi related. I would personally like to thank this forum and Tulsa for an excellent job they are doing! Thank you Pachitalk!

    Hey!!

    You trying to do me out of a job Mr johnnyabc??

    I am pleased you are enjoying the Pachinko Experience!!

    Just be careful when trying to convert others - some are so set in their ways - they are unable to find the true path, others have tried and have not proved worthy......

    and I must admit there have been one or two who I could not convert, even with the power of the Blaster!!

    I see you tried Julie, Casinoking and Spiderman Neo. Casino King and Spiderman Neo I never tried. I am surprised Julie didn't reel you in. From what I here that is suppose to be one of the best ones out there now.

    I would tell you to give Star Wars a try. The screen makes a big difference in play. R2D2 moves and lights up and there is a light saber that glows on and off which is pretty cool. I think the star wars will blow you away. I recommend that if you have a chance to play Star Wars you try it one more time before giving up totally. Also check out the new space invaders pachinko which will be coming out soon.

    I have tried a Pachinko Popeye machine, and was not impressed with it. I found the music and game play boring. Pachislots are the way to go, and someday I will own an American slot machine. I feel so much better now that I said that. Pachislots for life!

    There's something happening here
    What it is ain't exactly clear
    There's a man with a gun over there
    Telling me I got to beware
    I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    There's battle lines being drawn
    Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
    Young people speaking their minds
    Getting so much resistance from behind
    I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    What a field-day for the heat
    A thousand people in the street
    Singing songs and carrying signs
    Mostly say, hooray for our side
    It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Paranoia strikes deep
    Into your life it will creep
    It starts when you're always afraid
    You step out of line, the man come and take you away
    We better stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, hey, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, now, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down
    Stop, children, what's that sound
    Everybody look what's going down

    Don't get me wrong I like the animatronics and graphics that Pachinkos have. I think I was just very annoyed by the repeating Popeye theme song. I've thought very hard about getting a Star Wars Pachinko, but could not see paying the money for it. When it all comes down to it, we are all one big addictive family!

    I think maybe we should just look again at the Title of this Thread and leave it at that......

    I have Pachislos and Pachinkos - I just happen to prefer Pachinko that's all......

    I have a little fun trying to convert the masses:
    Sometimes it works - sometimes it doesn't

    But we all enjoy our Pachis in whatever form and being part of the friendly PachiTalk Community

    I don't think it is fair to compare a pachislo to a pachinko. Both of them are unique in certain ways. I just was very surprised by how much more I liked the star wars pachinko. I think people who have pachislos should at least try one pachinko to get a different variety of play.

    Devospeed, if you get a chance try a star wars pachinko. it is so much better than popeye. i understand what you are saying with popeye as some other people also have mentioned it being redundant and the music annoying.

    A star wars pachinko ended today at one of the lowest prices i have seen in awhile.
    http://cgi.ebay.com/STAR-WARS-PINBAL...QQcmdZViewItem
    137.50 plu shipping which isn't too bad. i think the machine may go up in price in about a month with the star wars anniversary stamps coming out and all the hype.

    Hey Devo, Don't forget you are not that far away from me.
    Got 10 pachinkos waiting in the new gameroom for you to try (and no Popeye to annoy you). Plus 5 pachislos, including a Bang Bang Dash and Dragon Dice.

    This is my personal opinion, or of the voices in my head, and are not meant to reflect the opinion of this board.
