PACHINKO + PACHISLOT = PALOT

Sankyo is making a pachislo style machine that uses balls instead of tokens.

Create 21 designed the same type of machines a few years ago, but I don't know if the laws at that time allowed them to be made for commercial use.

Cool! Probably would make it more convenient for parlors to only have to deal with just balls instead of balls and tokens.

One questian what is the value of 1 ball vs. 1 token, would 1 ball = 1 bet like a token or do they have to adjust it like 4 balls = 1 bet?

[pachi_sloter]

I think it's 5 balls = 1 bet. 15 balls max bet per play. 75 balls max payout per play.

It may fly in japan but here in the us the pachislos sell because people thing they are regular slots. After they get it and play they become like us and know what they really have and enjoy it for what it is. But it is still the feeding in of tokens that is annealing about them. To mix it with balls what is the point? Not for me!

[Tony Junior]

My question is, why?

[arbycoffee]

it does not sound inviting

[RKnarr01]

i think it would be a cool and unique item to pick up although i do prefer using tokens.

[arbycoffee]

with the tight laws on pachinkos in effect in Japan, Is this the future of what is going to happen to our ball machines ?

if it was soÂ… think of the price increase the ones we have now. I bet it can, or will, be abled to be ordered from factory with ball acepters or token.

This opens up a whole new level of speculation of values ?

What do you think Lew ?, you been in this the longest that I know of.
Are we sitting on future gold mines or an obsolet toy ?

It's probably marketed to parlors that are specifically pachinko who want the slots but don't want to shell out for the token handling systems (dispensing, counting, cleaning, storing, movement). Just pull a row of pachinkos and put in a row of these. I would believe they have the same connections to the ball system that pachinkos do.

I think this is the coolest thing out there right now. I would enjoy owning this one. (It would probably increase the revenue intake. It would take less time to load.)

[luckydog]

If this machine is being made,

I'm sure Arby will have the first one in th U. S. :>)

[Tulsa]

I don't think Arby is buying pachislos any longer.

[Lddrizzt]

I don't think Arby is buying pachislos any longer.

But this is not a pachislo, it's a Pachinkislo

[Tulsa]

But can they make it CU?

[Lddrizzt]

I bet it can be done, just reroute the ball drop from the hopper to the payout slot.

[Tulsa]

But you'd have to reroute it back to the fill hopper.

[arbycoffee]

I like my ball machines, that's a matting of the two.

Not a good thing

[slotter]

What sex is this machine? Or is it genderless?

[arbycoffee]

it is a mule
