    Default one of the earliest pachislo machines

    Anyone seen a pachislo-style machine from Japan that's older? https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g354375106

    I know of skill-stop slots from parts of Europe that predate solid-state electronics, but this is the earliest Japanese skill-stop slot I've seen.
    WANTED: 10¥ games, pre-1950s machines, スマートボール (Smart Ball), payazzo/kronespill, Pickwick-style (~1905)

    Cool. I have never seen one like it. Reminds me of some of the German machines.

    Years ago I think I made a post about the first pachislo.. It's green I think.. I'll find a picture But if I remember right it was called Olympia (Not related to current company Olympia owned by Heiwa) because of the 1964 Olympics in Japan.. It looks just like other Sega slot machines from the time I've seen, but with three stop buttons!! I hope that's all correct!!


    Found some pics!!

    Rotamint, that's exactly what I was thinking of.

    yeah I have an affection for those 1960s German machines like Rotomint, but most of them don't have stops.

    Cool to see the Sega slot where it has the big arm pull AND the stop buttons

    Beautiful! For operation, does it just keep running if you don't hit the stops, or when does it time out?

    it operates more as a traditional slot.. the reals stop from left to right in perty quick succession

    if you playing one handed its hard to stop the 3rd right reel before the clock works trip it to stop on its own..

    also the reel don't stop on a dime.. a block is pressed against a star so they click over a few slots before they actually stop..
