    Default Least Intimidating Pachinko Machines?

    From you alls experience, what would you say are some of the least intimidating pachinko machines you've played or seen? I'm looking for some machines that wouldn't scare an average American away because it has complex bonus rounds and tons of Japanese text yet at the same time, something that's lots of fun.

    Thunderzone is still my favorite machine. I think it's a lot of fun to play. It is in english and not intimidating at all.

    An "antique" pachinko machine from the 70's would fit that bill perfectly. They're not intimidating, easy to set up, actually require some skill, and are mindless fun (you only need to shoot balls, if you hit targets, you get more balls). Personally I want to get two more (I have a 70's one), I want one from the 90's that is electronic and one from recent years with all the bells and whistles, that way I can show the progress (including the off shoot to pachislo) to guests.

    I have never thought of a pachinko as being intimidating. My favorite has to be the Maturi's.

    Staw Wars is also the cost of a mortgage payment. Frankly, I consider that a little intimidating.

    I don't think any of the Pachinkos are particularly intimidating. Get one that has a good theme and interests you.

    What exactly is the appeal of Sea Story? It seems pretty popular and yet it seems like it has a pretty basic theme. I'm pretty curious and would like to try it some time.

    I agree with rebonz, THUNDERZONE!
    Another great but scary looking machine is PumpKing!
    Check my member page here or...

    Temporarily, go to youtube.com and search for BudgeRahe for videos. Until I get the links set up in the museum

    I agree with slotter,I don't think any pachinko is really that hard to figure out. I know Star Wars is pricey but its a good one to start with.
